Ever since we heard the words “LinkedIn,” we’ve paid attention to the platform with varying degrees of enthusiasm. In the early 2000’s, many of us rushed to the dot com, created a profile, and listed all of our schools, positions, and accolades with pride. Some of us finally came around years later, with a sigh and a, “Okay, okay, what am I supposed to do?” And then there are the rest who feign a little ignorance and say, “LinkedIn? Never heard of him.”
LinkedIn profiles for attorneys average a view rate of 2.8x that of a law firm’s website bio. Your prospective customers want to see information about their potential counsel in a format that is familiar to them. If your profile lacks the information they’re looking for, they likely won’t take the time to find your firm bio, but rather move on to another lawyer, particularly if they found you via search results.
One of the most consistent questions I get is, “Should our teams, lawyers, brokers, reps, leaders, accountants, consultants, marketers have recommendations on LinkedIn? Does this really matter?”
Short answer, yes. Long answer, here’s a write up on why they matter, how to methodically ask for them and what yours should say.
I presented at Susan Freeman, M.A. Communication [she/her]‘s fantastic women’s conference last week, which had so much wonderful content. In response to questions received post-conference, I put together the four core points I made, detailed below!
I recently consulted with an AmLaw50 firm, focusing my time with two prominent partners boasting large books of business. They were each part of the firm’s Navigator pilot group, yet had differing goals: Partner A was the head of the APAC region offices within the firm, looking to solidify new relationships with major clients to both drive revenues and raise the profile of the firm’s portfolio. Partner B ran the startup and venture capital practice domestically, and she was seeking opportunities to position her clients for major mergers and acquisitions within their respective industries.
Recently, an attorney I work with told me a great story about using a simple but effective search on Navigator that helped him to reconnect with an old friend and generate new work for his firm.

It was one of the most engaging and useful training sessions my team has attended in years.Sam is a sales pro who brings amazing energy, enthusiasm and experience to training and development. We utilized her consulting service for a one hour session where 70+ sellers and sales managers attended her training on the “Top Ten Ways to Win in Sales.” Not only was the session on point, it was one of the most engaging and useful training sessions my team has attended in years, the feedback was exceptionally positive. Oftentimes, training and/or consultants miss the mark but Sam truly gets it, she is relatable, speaks from experience and applies her proven techniques in an easy to digest format. If we had the budget, we would hire Sam to lead all our sales training.

Someone Who’s Done It, Gets It, and Knows How To Do It“Sam is who I go to when I am looking for advice and feedback on how to bring in the BIG deals…She is tactical…she gets in there with you.

We were fortunate because we were introduced to Sam“Over a year ago when the pandemic caused us to change the way we sell, our management team asked us how we needed to alter our sales approach to be effective digital sellers. We were fortunate because we were introduced to Sam who quickly began coaching our team on effective digital selling strategies. We started with the basics of how to update our LinkedIn profiles, effective LinkedIn communications and then moved to Show Me You Know Me (SMYKM) and more advanced “hacks”. One of the best things about Sam’s training is our ongoing engagements that will focus on other sales techniques and more importantly emerging best practices for digital and in-person selling.”

Her energy was contagious and she is a breath of fresh airI hired Sam to bring some fresh ideas and new strategies to our national sales meeting. Her energy was contagious and she is a breath of fresh air. She is relatable, but more importantly results driven.

It was motivating and showed tangible ways to differentiate. We implemented her “secret sauce” and saw results that day! Multiple members on our team have reached out to have more time with Sam!

#samsales consulting has been the missing puzzle piece in our business-development and sales efforts#samsales consulting has been the missing puzzle piece in our business-development and sales efforts. We have all the expertise in the world relating to what we do, but getting projects – especially big ones – to sign was a hit-and-miss affair. Sam not only consults for us on our entire sales strategy, but her team of BDRs has examined and reshaped our outreach-and-messaging approach to both show our expertise and to have the prospects discover why they need it, want it, can’t live without it. The result – after only a few months – has been record-breaking, multi-year deals and a trajectory to have the best year in company history!

While Sam and her team helped us find a sales language and rhythm that is comfortable, they pushed us to reach beyond our comfort level to achieve even better results than we initially thought possible.
