Selling Legal Services online

I met up with someone yesterday and
we thought about partnerships to get more
business.

I particularly like partnerships for marketing
because someone else promotes your services
and you simply return a fee (only if successful).

So it's really low risk.

And if most of the marketing work is done by the
partner then how about the legal work
also being "backsourced" (a term coined by
Graham Cohen).

It could make for a really interesting, low cost
option of legal service, being promoted for practically
nothing and instantly profitable.

Let's take an example..(one that is being explored by one law firm.
(And one that I exploit for a French Language company).

Imagine going to every school in your county.
Getting them all to put an advert on their bulletins.
That says something like...

Your Children Can Be Put In To
Care If You Were To Die Today
Without A Will.

And each school had an affinity code
or trackable phone number.

And Wills were sold and completed online.

And the price was £47.

And £17 went to the school.

And you built up a Will Bank of 1000 clients
(10 per school).

And these 1000 people bought

100 conveyancing
10 probate
10 divorce

services each year.

And you did it for 10 years.

1000 Conveyancing = 500,000
100 probate = 100,000
100 divorce = 100,000

That's 700,000 Pounds.

And each of those clients referred one
other person over 10 years...

That's another 700,000 Pounds.

£1.4M

And all because it's easy to promote with direct online sales.

Where the client does the work.

As Danny Zuko sang...

"I've to chills...they're multiplying..."

PS, You repeat this process with charities,
large employers, local authority etc.
Once you have a system in place
it's replicable.
