1. The Two Pillars of Law Firm Growth
Generating leads is only half the battle—without a structured intake system, you're leaving money on the table.
A great marketing strategy without a solid intake process is like a leaking bucket; fix the leak, and your revenue skyrockets.
2. Speed to Lead: The 5-Minute Rule
If you call a lead within five minutes of submission, you’re 300% more likely to convert them.
The firms that dominate intake are the ones that prioritize instant action—calls, texts, and automation that keep prospects engaged.
3. The Power of Persistent Follow-Up
Most law firms give up on leads too soon, but data shows that conversions still happen after 6 months.
The winning formula: A structured 14-day follow-up cadence, then long-term nurturing with alternating calls, texts, and emails.
4. The Secret Weapon: AI in Intake
AI-driven intake solutions are revolutionizing law firms, handling lead qualification, booking calls, and even signing clients.
In some firms, AI now touches 100% of leads and contributes to over 50% of sign-ups.
5. The Right People in the Right Seats
Your best intakers should be handling your best leads—it’s that simple.
A tiered intake structure, supported by supervisors and quality assurance, ensures maximum conversions and continuous improvement.
"I could be the world's best marketer and generate a lot of leads and qualify leads. But if I don't have the system on the back end to sign them up—and I'm sure you can attest to that too—it doesn't mean anything. It'll just be a leaking hole." — Sam Mollaei
"If you can call a lead within the first five minutes of them filling out a form, you are 300 percent more likely to sign up that lead as a client." — Eamon Graziano
