Small law firms and large law firms alike can benefit greatly by using webinars. Webinars, the online version of a seminar, is more cost effective than traditional seminars and allow for greater follow-up marketing.
Certain areas of the law lend themselves to webinars more than others. Attorneys practicing in: Tax Law, Elder Law, and Estate Planning can have great success with webinars.
In order to succeed with an effective webinar the entire presentation must be planned with a central theme or focus that speaks to the law firm’s target audience. Savvy marketers plan a series of webinars. Each of these webinars will be focused on a specific market.
For example, an Estate Planning firm will want to focus on different markets with specific webinars for that market. One potential target market will be families with considerable wealth that want to minimize tax burdens and learn about trusts and other vehicles that minimize tax burdens. Another potential market would be the gay and lesbian market. This webinar would focus on documents that provide legal protections and inheritance rights. A third potential market could be the elderly that are concerned about health care decisions and finances as they age.
The key to succeeding online is for the law firm and their marketing team to create a game plan that targets different markets. An effective webinar includes public relations, information, entertainment and easy access to follow-up marketing through e-mail marketing.
