Create Winning Marketing Budgets: Recurring Marketing Expenses

Recurring marketing expenses are not the exciting and sexy part of the marketing budget. But they are an important component that needs to be reviewed and understood. Recurring marketing expenses do not need to break your budget, and with careful planning, they can actually free up space in your budget.

By taking the time to review and analyze marketing expenses during the planning phase of your budget, you can more accurately forecast the expenses in the coming year, and make room for the initiatives that will drive the most growth for your law firm

If the goal of creating marketing objectives is to show leadership the value the marketing team will bring to the firm’s growth, then the goal of the marketing budget is to quantify what that is going to cost. Knowing exactly what you want to do, how you want to do it, what it is going to cost, and the expected return to the firm will go a long way toward the approval of a marketing plan and budget that is innovative and effective.

The Americans with Disabilities Act, or ADA, was intended to provide a clear and comprehensive national mandate for the elimination of discrimination against people with disabilities. Title III of the law states that “no individual shall be discriminated against on the basis of disability in the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, privileges, advantages, or accommodations of any place of public accommodation by any person who owns, leases, or operates a place of public accommodation.” Can your firm’s website can be considered a “place of public accommodation”?

20 in ’20: Starting Your Year with an Aim to Measure Success

Robyn Addis

Every year I write a set of goals down in my bullet journal. (Yes, I’m a tech junkie with a flair for the analog.)  It started a few years ago when I saw a friend post her “16 in ‘16” list on Facebook and I decided to join in. My goals are a mix of personal and professional, and I have yet to have a year when I achieve all of them. That’s ok – they’re goals. Not assignments. But goal setting is important to keep me motivated and working to better myself.

Goal setting is important when it comes to your digital marketing efforts too. Goals keep your campaigns and marketing activities aligned toward achieving a common objective. They also help you determine what is and isn’t attainable based on the resources available. Plus, complacency stifles growth, and goals help keep your marketing from being complacent and growing stale and out of touch.

Budget season is in full swing or possibly even winding down if your firm is ahead of the game. You are likely budgeting for a number of important marketing and business development-focused projects for next year. Is one of those projects a new website? If you answered yes, you’re in good company. Generally speaking, companies update their websites every three years. In legal services, the timeline can be similar, but often other firm-wide initiatives and priorities can force your website project to the back burner. One way to help keep your project top of mind with executives and key stakeholders is to set a realistic expectation of how much it will cost, and how the process will work. This article will focus on the cost component, and how to set a realistic budget, considering all contingencies, that will help drive your website redesign conversation.

When I joined Legal Internet Solutions Incorporated as Director of Business Development in late June of this year, I was a bit of a novice to the world of search engine optimization, which is one of LISI’s key strengths. Sure, I knew of terms like “SEO” and had attended seminars at the legal-marketing events throughout the years. But I didn’t truly know or appreciate what went into making one site rank better than another in the search engine results pages. Frankly, I didn’t give it much thought—I just used search engines to find information.

Digital marketing is any online channel used to market a good or service. In today’s world, digitally mature companies with a strategy are eight times more likely to gain market share. This is apparent in the meteoric rise in the number of marketing hires of the past five years, and the requirement of more than half of those hires that they have some sort of digital experience. However, 45% of companies surveyed in a Smart Insights poll admitted they don’t have a digital marketing strategy. These figures aren’t specific to legal marketing, but they portend an even wider divide for legal marketers and their trusted service partners.

How a law firm’s website appears on mobile devices is as important—and arguably more important—than how the website looks on desktop computers. The share of website traffic going through mobile devices has grown substantially since the iPhone’s debut in 2007. In the United States, the share of traffic to websites (excluding tablets) topped 40.61 percent in the first quarter of 2019, trending upward from previous quarters. With this in mind, one of our longest-tenured clients and we partnered to build the firm’s new website with a mobile-first mindset, and the results were award-winning.

What does it mean to be a digital artisan?

Jason P. Lisi
Founder & President

Jason P. Lisi

Have you noticed people are increasingly finding a deeper appreciation for craftsmanship, quality, and the unique?  We are witnessing a revival in all things artisanal – from craft microbreweries to handmade soaps, cheeses, and leather shoes. The word “artisan” evokes a simpler time when people took pride in their craft. Today, the draw for real artisanal products is born out of a movement deriding mass-produced goods linked to big corporations. But true artisans have the passion and commitment for finding the right tools, selecting only the finest materials, and infusing everything produced with the energy and authenticity of a superior, hand-crafted product.

What type of law firm site do you have?

Jason P. Lisi

It is nearing the end of summer and you may have spent some of it playing the great game of golf. As you know, a golf bag contains many different clubs, each designed for a specific purpose. A driver is for long shots off the tee, the middle irons are for the fairways, and the wedges and putter are for the short game. It’s close to impossible to have one club make all the shots needed to complete 18 holes. Each club is a tool for a specific task.

It’s the same with law firm websites. One type of site is not going to be suitable for each of the marketing tasks in the law-firm-marketing world. There are many types of law firm websites, and it’s wise to choose the type that suits your firm’s marketing needs when redesigning your internet presence.

Building a Practice: Which Comes First: Business Card or Website?

Jason P. Lisi

The practice of law is both a profession and a business. This is hardly a surprising revelation, but many of us who went to law school and have been admitted to the bar tend to focus on the more high-minded ideal of operating in a profession rather than the less-rarified world of being in business. A business person, after all, deals with unpleasant matters such as profit and loss, management of people, and (horrifyingly!) marketing and sales.

When submitting sensitive information — such as credit card or Social Security numbers — into a website form, most everyone knows to look for the signs of a secured connection before proceeding. What you may not know is that Google and other online services are now close to requiring a secured connection — also known as encryption or secure sockets layer (SSL) — for all websites, even those that don’t collect personal information. This creates an important to-do item for anyone with a website that wants greater consumer trust, high search engine rankings, and to keep pace with technology.

The fifth and final step is to have an ongoing marketing campaign to let the search engines (and the people who use them) know that your site is current and relevant.

Why does my firm need to be on those social networks? Simple: that’s where the people are, and the people expect it. Each network has a distinct value to your marketing: LinkedIn is a massive business network and perfect opportunity to stay virtually in front of your network; Facebook is a vehicle to communicate your firm’s culture to future hires; and Twitter is a place to share thought leadership with the media and other amplifiers.

This month marks the 17th year of incorporation of Legal Internet Solutions, which I think is pretty impressive for a digital agency in an age where tech companies balloon up and quickly pop. LISI wasn’t promoting its skills in social media, blogs, or mobile-friendly design way back then, as those marketing strategies didn’t even exist.

It may be self-evident, but it is essential for your firm’s website to have the proper presence in the search engines.
