Let Go to Grow: The 'Price' from 2 to 40 Lawyers | Seth Price
Q: What was the original idea behind starting the firm's growth path, and how did it evolve?
The original aim was to monetize a criminal practice and scale the firm's capabilities by leveraging top legal minds; over time they transitioned to a model built on in-house teams, blue-chip marketing, and scalable processes that could be replicated across multiple locations, with a strong emphasis on outcomes over ego.
Triple Your Law Firm's Referrals | Delisi Friday's CORE Method
Q: What is the CORE framework and how should it be applied?
CORE stands for Create, Once, Recycle Everywhere; lawyers should generate one solid content piece (like a podcast) and repurpose it across channels to maximize reach and SEO impact.
Triple Your Law Firm's Referrals | Delisi Friday's CORE Method
