Are you toying with the idea of going solo, but scared to take
the leap? How do you know when it's time? How do you know where to
start? How you do effectively serve your clients and run a business
by yourself?
Our guest this week is Carolyn Elefant, and she's a guru for
lawyers ready to start their own practice. She's the author of
"Solo By Choice," which is being re-pressed and founder of
MyShingle.com, a resource guide for solo attorneys.
Carolyn and I dive into our respective journeys into going solo and
breaking out of the big firm paradigms. Going solo is about
creating something that custom fits your strengths and goals, and
at the same time creating a better, more dedicated client
experience and better access to justice.
We talk about a range of challenges, like how to create
frictionless client experiences, getting the ideal client to
self-select, and controlling your own hours, pricing, and sanity.
We also cover the tools and systems we use to stay successful -
virtual assistants, tech tools, and a great team.
Ultimately, it's all about the freedom to create the kind of
practice you want, and the myriad ways you can shape that and be
set up for success.
