Jim’s Hack: Add a simple marketing card or a way for your firm to ask clients if they’re satisfied or unsatisfied with the service you’re providing. It’s an easy tip to find ways on improving your business. 


Brooks Tip: Don’t let your future self or the person you want to become hate who you are today. Remember that you're an awesome lawyer, focus on the things you’re doing well.


Tyson’s Tip: Pick a realistic goal for the quarter, set a reward for it, tell your team about it, and go after it. It’s a good way to dip your toe into scaling up and gain traction.
