Think Like an Entrepreneur: BizDev, Career Transitions & The Tech You're Ignoring (with Steve Seckler)

Host Jared Correia and special guest Steve Seckler of Seckler Attorney Coaching are here to deliver a masterclass in legal business, career development, and rock & roll history.

First, Jared shares his "Missing Links" monologue, revealing the underutilized features in the software you're probably using every day. He exposes why so many firms are still using standalone tools like Dropbox and Calendly when they're already paying for and ignoring the powerful, built-in features in Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. Jared also breaks down the hidden gems in case management, CRM, and document assembly software, including how to use AI workflow agents and logic triggers to save time and automate your firm.

Then, Steve and Jared talk about Steve's new book, "Think a Lawyer, Act Like an Entrepreneur," and how to overcome lawyers' aversion to sales. They dive into the modern legal job market, the power of "authentic" business development , and offer advice for lawyers facing career transitions or burnout at any age.

Finally, stick around for our new Counter Program segment: "Deep Cuts with Steve Seckler, 1970s Edition." They reminisce about great albums from Fleetwood Mac, Cat Stevens, Neil Young, and James Taylor, trying to find songs that aren't already classics.
