Client Attraction: 5 Steps to a Steady Stream of Clients with Sharon Christie
In this Law Firm Growth Summit 2022 session replay, Sharon Christie shares 5 simple steps for getting a consistent flow of new clients.

This program teaches lawyers how to attract a steady stream of great clients using both online and off-line techniques. When used consistently, Sharon’s 5 Step Client Attraction System will generate a steady stream of 5 star clients (which results in steady cash flow too).
