…And people want to hear it, whether or not you think they do. Richard Jacobs’s thoughts, writings, and spoken word have helped many people over the years; he knows this because they reach out to him with positive responses and thank yous…whether it’s a thank you for providing an insight, encouraging a new outlook, or pushing them to start a new business venture.
Jacobs draws from his personal experiences to illustrate why you should consider doing this too. By communicating regularly with past and current clients on your list, you will get more referrals, and contribute something valuable to other people’s lives. It doesn’t have to be time-consuming; crafting a short message about your life or practice once a month—or better yet once a week—is all you need. You have life and legal experience, so share it. Some people really need to hear what you have to say.

About Richard Jacobs
My name is Richard Jacobs, and I've discovered quite a bit about the plight of solo practitioners and small, 2-5 attorney firms like yours these past 12 years.
I've come to understand the unique challenges in marketing ethically and effectively that attorneys face because I have:
- Helped over 180 attorneys author their own practice area book and become the 'implied expert' in their practice area
- Helped hundreds of attorneys successfully navigate Google's search algorithm changes, growing their websites from 2 potential clients calling a month to 4+ calls per DAY for some clients.
- Interviewed and promoted over 507 attorneys nationwide, in practice areas such as:
- DUI / DWI
- Family Law
- Criminal Defense
- Bankruptcy
- Auto Accidents
- Social Security Disability
- Slip & Falls (Premises Liability)
- Real Estate
- Estate Planning / Probate
- Wage and Hour Claims
- Expungements / Post Conviction Relief
Before you decide to invest in your marketing, it makes sense to first request your complimentary, custom, no obligation video website review.
