If ever there was an unexpected
treasure hidden behind a plain exterior, this is it! Anyone who has
lived in Richardson, Texas as long as I have will remember the building
on Campbell and Nantucket as the original Sterlings catalog store. After
that, it was offices. Recessed off Campbell, is a nondescript building,
except for the fact that there are now huge letters on the front that
say Classic Cars, Banquet Rooms and NTX.
Although it is true that bigger
vehicles consume more fuel, it doesn't mean they are less fuel
efficient. Fuel efficiency is getting the most amount of energy from
every amount of fuel that enters the engine. It means that the vehicle
is able to make full use of the fuel it gets.
For
firms who rely on billable hours, marketing often takes a backseat. Make
that change. Retreats are a perfect time to create and set clear
expectations for attorneys and partners for non-billable time devoted to
marketing and business development. And don't forget to reward the
performers!

LaBeouf was not to
blame for the accident, which occurred when another driver allegedly ran
a red light. A few hours after the crash, LaBeouf underwent a four-hour,
early-morning surgical procedure on his left hand. A few weeks later --
against the advice of at least one doctor, LaBeouf says he returned to
the Transformers set with a specially designed prosthetic bandage that
had to be rewritten into the plot line. Additional surgery was postponed
till after the film wrapped. The ABC Company offers you a job.
However, the pay is too low and the benefits are too skimpy. Keep your
emotions in check and think about how much pay you think this job is
worth to you. Does the company give enough vacation days compared to
other companies? If not, how many vacation days would be fair? How many
holidays would you get off work in a year? Think about all the benefits
the company offered, as well as the list of benefits you would like to
receive.
If your firm were a car what would it be? Strong and tough
like a
buy truck
flatbeds? Sleek and
fast like a Ferrari? Sophisticated and state-of-the-art like a Mercedes
S-Class? How about an ice cream flavor? A beverage? A movie genre? All
of these exercises not only make for a lively discussion, but work to
help define your firm personality. Once that emerges, look for ways to
incorporate it in your firm's daily business- from answering the phones
to your letterhead. My
experiences at the Shadow Bar occurred more than forty years ago, but I
still wonder if I should have reported the incident when I returned to
Engineers Hill. Make sure you're looking at your
website as a marketing tool and not an IT plaything. Video, podcasts and
blogs are great, but nothing can replace a good solid, well-organized
homepage and clearly defined practice areas. Also- look at how the
attorney biographies are categorized. Are they easy to navigate and easy
to read? If not, consider hiring someone to revamp and redesign-it's a
simple and non-expensive way to instantly update your firm image. So to keep safety on your side,
make sure that you check the steering system and the suspension system
of your vehicle at least once a year. This should be done so that you
keep away from accidents and crashes.
