Unlike usual, this month I’m not going to touch on mindset, motivation, and what it takes to be successful (directly). Rather, I want to talk about the new things that are going on at PILMMA that will help you in your business and in your practice. We have put quite a bit of energy and effort into these preparations and programs and your success is at the very heart of our efforts. We are excited and I believe you will be too, once you see what we have in store for you in the coming days and months!
PILMMA’S 10TH ANNIVERSARY SUPER SUMMIT IN NEW ORLEANS!
First off, I want to remind everyone that this year’s annual PILMMA SUPER SUMMIT is going to be June 25 through June 28 at the Ritz Carlton in NEW ORLEANS! This will be a major event with lots of Big Ideas in the Big Easy! And unlike any previous summit, this is going to be 3.5 days. I promise you that this year’s Summit is going to be the biggest and best ever, as we celebrate PILMMA’S 10th anniversary! We have 39 presentations and speakers scheduled and 25 of them are either practicing lawyers, administrators or marketing directors from private law firms that do injury and disability work. This is NOT a high-pressure vendor-led sales pitch platform or “how to’s” from people who “haven’t” done it themselves! No, this is going to be 3.5 days jam-packed with relevant and cutting-edge content. I guess you can tell that I’m already getting excited!
MASS TORTS AND WOMEN’ ENTREPRENEUR PROGRAMS ADDED:
This year’s Super Summit will feature a Bonus Day with Two exciting new Programs going on simultaneously: 1) Superstar Attorney, Gloria Allred will be there to help us launch our first ever PILMMA Empowering Women Entrepreneur Attorneys Program. It will be a full day of exciting presentations designed to educate, motivate and empower women. 2) At the same time, we are also hosting PILMMA’s first ever MASS TORTS Program, to be held simultaneously. The Mass Torts Program promises cutting edge secrets and inside info on Mass Torts, to help our members learn what’s hot and what’s not in Mass Torts. We will show you how you can make money passively or actively with Mass Torts added to your law firm case inventory.
TOUCHSTONE:
As many of you know, I have been preaching the importance of having a systematized law firm, with procedures and processes for all tasks and positions within your firm for years. I truly believe it is the only way you can successfully grow your law firm and maintain quality case development and client service.
It’s also the only way you can successfully build your law practice and expand with multiple offices. Thus, in January 2019 we launched the Touchtone software and training programs for ALL of our PILMA members. This innovative software will help you craft and personalize your firm’s processes and procedures. It’s now part of your PILMMA membership and all you have to do is take advantage of this program. We are even providing monthly training sessions to help you put this important management infrastructure in place! In case you aren’t yet convinced that your firm needs these processes, my Management article in this month’s magazine gives you five major reasons these processes are invaluable for successful law firm management.
Keep Your Eyes Open for the New PILMMA APP: I am currently working on a brand-new app to bring PILMMA into the 21st century. I hope to be launching it at the Super Summit in New Orleans on June 26. Trust me when I tell you that this will be a great technology for ALL our members! That’s all I’m going to say about this surprise until the Summit!
NEW INDIVIDUALIZED CONSULTING:
Finally, as if that wasn’t’ enough, I have set aside 3 days per month this year to spend one-on-one Consulting with PILMMA members at my home in New Bern, North Carolina. For the last several years I have been busy traveling around the country doing on location Consults. But this year, the Mastermind groups have grown and traveling has increased- so on location consults aren’t as practical, logistically, this year. However, my desire to help lawyers hasn’t decreased; I still want to continue helping lawyers who need it and appreciate it. Frankly, I’ve found that there is no substitute for one-on-one in-depth discussions in getting to the heart of what is needed for lawyers to push past roadblocks and create a winning game plan/strategy for increased success.
This new Consulting program requires some homework on your part and mine before you arrive at my house. I’ve done one already this year that was very successful. (I wanted to try it out to make sure I was comfortable with the personal format and that it worked well for the participating lawyer, too) I feel sure that this new format is going to be more economical and helpful to you, as it allows you to better focus by stepping away from the pull and constraints of your law offices to work with me, one on one.
Well, that’s the roundup for this year. New programs, new directions, but the same commitment to helping our PILMMA members grow and succeed, and realize increased profits, and more freedom.
BTW: If you haven’t signed up for the March Management Mastery Workshop yet, (and if we haven’t sold out by the time you read this) I would strongly recommend it. Just go to www.pilmma.org/managementmastery for more information and to sign up.
