BD Boot Camp: Session #1
Navigating the Hybrid World of Virtual and In-Person Client Development

 

As we well know, the shock of COVID caused lawyers to rethink how they interact with the market to attract, retain, and grow work. While the fundamentals of business development remain the same – get known, develop relationships, and relentlessly follow-up – lawyers now have more virtual tools in their bag to accomplish those goals.

In this program, best-selling author and NLJ Hall of Fame coach David H. Freeman, J.D., and virtual presentation master Ken Sky will discuss approaches that can be used in person and on screen to enhance one's brand, develop closer connections, and stay top-of-mind.

What attendees will learn: 

  • Why it's important to deliver outstanding online experiences. 
  • Approaches to enhance personal branding. 
  • How to up your game when presenting on video platforms. 
  • Virtual approaches to engage new prospects and stay top-of-mind with existing contacts. 
  • In-person approaches that leave powerful impressions. 
  • A few other fun techniques.
