Law firm owner
Hi guys. I own a law firm which I founded 3 years back, but I’m barely making ends meet. I try my level best to network and advertise, but growing a practice is insanely difficult. I’m not making profit and to be honest, I feel embarrassed telling people that I’m an attorney because I don’t have anything to show for it.
I’m not posting to advertise my services or solicit clients. I’m genuinely looking for advice from people who have built firms, businesses, or client-based practices from the ground up. I’d prefer not to disclose my firm’s name publicly for privacy reasons, but I’m a licensed attorney and can verify my credentials if relevant.
For those who started with little or no marketing budget: what actually moved the needle for you? How can I find clients when I don’t have the financial resources to market my business?
