Brandy Derrick: Making More Money in Your Law Practice
In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Brandy Derrick discuss: Why lawyers are not great with money, billing, and books. How lawyers can reduce AR and overhead costs. Understanding your numbers and making more money. Delegating and outsourcing your bookkeeping. Key Takeaways: You are not taught how to do bookkeeping in law school or typically at the law firm level. Collect a retainer up front and stay on top of the monthly billing. Consistently and timely send out your invoices. This shows that getting paid is important to you. Likely, you do not need to be spending thousands of dollars in rent for your office every month. There are more options than ever for working remotely or in a co-share space. "Pay attention to your marketing. Understand which are the most profitable, and how you are getting those clients." — Brandy Derrick Connect with Brandy Derrick: Website: https://legaleasebookkeeping.com/ Email: [email protected] Phone: 469-751-2150 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandyderrick/ Thank you to our Sponsors!
