THE PROFITABLE PRACTICE PROGRAMME FOR LAWYERS WHO WANT MORE CLIENTS AND TO INCREASE PROFITS WITHOUT WORKING MORE HOURS

Who is it for?

Are you are a sole practitioner lawyer or consultant lawyer, or a partner in a small firm with responsibility for practice growth and business development for your practice area?

Do you want more clients, and to increase your profits without working more hours than you already do?

If so, this programme will help you do just that.

The Profitable Practice Programme is designed for you if:

  • You know you need to take action if you want to get more clients and grow your practice but you always seem to be too busy to create a practice growth plan or you’re not sure that your existing plan is the best use of your time and resources
  • You feel like you don’t have enough time to do all the things you’re expected to do in your role and want to learn the 'shortcuts’ when it comes to getting more clients and the ways to work smarter, not harder – and maybe even reduce your working hours.
  • You want to cut out the costs (time and money) and uncertainty of marketing and business development activities that just don’t work and instead be shown which strategies will work for you and the best way to implement them
  • You want to improve your business development and practice growth skills so you can get better results in less time – leaving you more time to get on with the fee-earning
  • You’re fed up 'thinking about’ all the ways you could grow your practice and just want help to get it done.

In my first two months of being a member of Profitable Practice, Michelle helped me identify some quick wins to put in place straight away. A new client, worth about £20k in fees, contacted me on the strength of my LinkedIn profile which I had updated using Michelle’s formula. I also used the techniques from Michelle’s training on how to describe what I do in a way which is clearer about the benefits for clients, and this helped me land another client, also worth about £15 - 20k, with another client in the pipeline. I’m delighted with the results so far and the 12 month programme has already more than paid for itself.

How Does It Work?

In this programme you will focus on installing and optimising the 3 Essential Elements of a Profitable Practice:

  • Attract more enquiries from your ideal clients
  • Convert more enquiries into paying clients
  • Maximise your profits from existing clients

My firm has been a part of Michelle’s Profitable Practice Programme for over a year with excellent results. Most recently, Michelle has helped us to produce a Client Magnet report that generated over 300 downloads from potential clients and contacts in just a few months. This has meant that we have been able to generate an excellent pipeline of worldwide potential new business targets during the COVID lockdown and has already generated over £50,000 of new business.
With Michelle’s help and guidance our marketing efforts are very focussed and efficient as we have been able to ‘hook’ new clients using social media and online tools. We have signed up for our second year in the programme and would recommend Michelle’s services to anyone who is looking to grow their law firm or practice and maximising the impact of their time investment and marketing budget.

The Profitable Practice Programme consists of 3 core elements to help you achieve this result

  • Strategic Planning ('What’ you need to do)
  • Skills and Tactics Training ('How’ to do it)
  • Support and Accountability (making sure you get it 'done’).

I never thought this would be possible but with guidance from Michelle, her patience, her steer and her motivation to keep me aiming higher, I have achieved an increase of 140% in fee income and 471% in profits so far – so nearly 5x profits compared to the start figure. Needless to say, I will be working with Michelle for many years to come!

What’s Included In My Programme?

The exact contents of your programme depend upon which level of programme you join in. But there are some common elements too.

Getting Started: Your Strategic Action Plan

Getting Started: Your Strategic Action Plan

When you join the programme you will have a 60-90 min private session during which we will create a one page Strategic Action Plan to get more clients and increase your profits over the next 12 months with a specific action plan for the next 90 days. This ensures you know exactly what to focus on, and in what order, to achieve your growth and profitability goals. We’ll also review and update your Strategic Action Plan together every 90 days to make sure you stay on track.

In a nutshell the whole course is extremely valuable – like a revelation, as if one has been working in a perpetual fog all these years and now it has cleared to reveal crystal clear scenery. Every client meeting that we have had since/ during the course has converted!

'Profitable Practice’ Skills and Tactics Training

'Profitable Practice’ Skills and Tactics Training

The right skills and tactics are essential to your profitability and your Strategic Action Plan will show you which order to study them in. Depending on the level of programme you choose, you will have access to some or all of the following trainings.

  • 5 Step Client Attraction System – so you can get attract more clients to you, so you don’t have to 'sell’ your services to them – online training videos, worksheets, templates and other resources (6 video sessions of 60-90 minutes + templates and tools
  • 5 Step Client Conversion System – so you can get more clients to say 'yes’ to working with you at the end of an initial session or meeting – online training videos, worksheets, templates and other resources (6 video sessions of 60-90 minutes + templates and tools)
  • Profitable Practice Accelerator Sessions – Online training sessions on the key themes of attracting more enquiries, converting more enquiries to paying clients and maximising profits. These are standalone sessions introducing a new strategy or tactic which you can put into action straight away using the tools and templates provided.

I have been a member of ‘Profitable Practice’ since July 2022 and within the first three months I almost doubled my monthly turnover without any increase in my Google marketing. This has only been made possible by following the specific strategic action plan Michelle has given me, and by using the training, templates, and advice she provides to help me implement that plan. Since then then the increase in monthly fee income has continued upwards!

I joined Michelle’s 'Profitable Practice' programme in Autumn 2020 because I had set up as a freelance solicitor practice a year ago and was looking for direction. In my first 90 days I managed to convert 5 new clients, 2 of which are very substantial anchor clients, and was entrusted responsibility to handle a major specialised bank licensing project. In the first 90 days my fee income had doubled and I had already reached my 12 month goals... and by the end of the first 12 months my fee income had increased by 150% and, more importantly, my profits had doubled. Lockdown turned out to be a gift year. Coming from Lithuania, I especially enjoy the collaborative culture of the Profitable Practice group of law firm owners, and the growth mindset, skills and helpful contacts that I receive. The best investment is in oneself, and I consider Michelle’s programme to be precisely that
