[WORKSHOP] Creating Your Legal Lead Magnet July 13, 2021
In May we hosted a live workshop all about creating a solid lead funnel for your law firm. After a huge turnout (thank you to everyone who attended you were an amazing audience) we answered tons of messages on Facebook and fielded question after question via email. We saw the same theme cropping up over and over again. Lead Magnets. Touching on them briefly during the workshop, the audience had one resounding consensus “what about my practice area?”
Creating Your Legal Lead Magnet will not only dive into how lead magnets work and why lead magnets work but we will literally be creating lead magnets for several practice areas in this 60minute workshop. Join us on July 13th and walk away with a template of your own.
