Your intake department is the bridge between your marketing and taking on new cases. [5:14] Marc’s biggest mistake was not having an intake department from the get-go. This led to Marc becoming a chokepoint, thereby limiting the number of new clients the firm could take on. [11:34] The firm’s intake process has become very sophisticated, with a specialized department and technology to track their progress. [15:44] Your intake department should be made up of extroverted and reliable people. You can develop scripts for your intake specialists to help them get the relevant information to determine if the firm should take their case. [22:53] Your firm is not selling law, it is selling a solution to a problem. Marc developed a sales process based on this problem-solving approach. [28:58] Marc Whitehead & Associates holds its intake department to a 95% contact rate goal and a 90% qualified lead sign on goal. [31:16] The firm also grades its intake department on its hand-off rate, or the transfer of cases to the people who will be working on the case. [38:41] Marc’s first quick intake tip is to simplify everything you do. You can simplify your contracts to make them simple to explain over the phone and use DocuSign so clients can sign virtually. [41:35] For Marc Whitehead & Associates, urgency is naturally built into the process on the client end, but other firms may need to build it in. Another tip is to explain your legal fee as a “success fee.” [43:46] You can send “wow packages” to “wow” your clients with branded merchandise.
