Boosting your firm\u2019s brand is an essential part of your legal marketing strategy. It tells potential clients who you are, what you\u2019re about, and why you may be a good fit for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In short, your branding should go past the logo. <\/strong>Branding is defined<\/a> as \u201cthe process of creating a strong, positive perception of your company.\u201d Branding beyond the logo means diving deep into what you stand for as a firm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are 7 effective ways to boost your law firm\u2019s branding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are many ways to boost your brand as part of your legal marketing strategy. The key is to focus on diverse channels and not limit your firm to one platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A lot of law firms rely only on traditional marketing, which is one of the biggest reasons why your practice isn\u2019t growing<\/a>. Here are seven other options to expand your legal marketing strategy and boost your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Writing high-quality, engaging, and useful content is a great way to establish yourself as an expert and thought leader in your industry. And if you can get your writing out in front of as many people as possible, it will help you grow your brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By guest posting on other blogs, you are contributing an article for them to publish on their site. This opens you up to a broader audience of people you may not have had access to before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Everyone loves a great infographic. They are such a simple and effective way to display important information with visuals. For example, this infographic on truck accidents:<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you create infographics that are useful and easy to share, it will grow your brand reputation and establish you as an expert in the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Try to create infographics that are unique to your law firm\u2019s niche area. Instead of taking general information, make it very specific so that it has more impact. For example, you can make infographics based on your firm\u2019s research and data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Instagram, TikTok and any other social platform work great at boosting your firm\u2019s brand recall. While you should be focusing on creating content for your own channels, you can also partner with content creators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some examples of partnerships include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Sponsored posts<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Paid advertisements<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Contests and giveaways<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Affiliate marketing<\/p>\n\n\n\n Content creators can make your firm shine! Additionally, you will also have access to their entire audience of engaged and loyal followers, which will boost brand recognition amongst a wider group of people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s important to find the right content creators to partner with, though. Make sure you\u2019ve followed them for a while and are familiar with their content to ensure it is a good match for your brand. When you are working with a content creator, you are essentially co-branding with them, where both parties benefit from brand awareness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Podcasts are so popular right now. Because they are a long-form medium, they\u2019re a great chance to dive deeper into serious and nuanced legal issues. This is a way you can show your expertise and knowledge which, ultimately, boosts brand image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For inspiration, you can even check out the Consultwebs podcast, LAWsome<\/a>\u2014the episode on the best tactics of a law firm\u2019s brand creation<\/a> is a great place to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Videos are everywhere and they aren\u2019t going anywhere! They have a huge reach. Anything from short 15-second clips to a longer how-to video can capture the attention of your audience and help convert clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n More than that, videos are a personalized and authentic way to show viewers who you are as a company to boost your brand image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of the best tips from our video marketing guide<\/a> include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Create high-quality videos with the right equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Make informative and educational content that engages people\u2019s interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Use your videos across your website and social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Videos are also a great legal marketing strategy because they\u2019re perfect for content recycling<\/a>. This is when you repurpose something like a video into a blog post or social media copy. It helps you save time because you aren\u2019t creating everything from scratch and provides your audience with a wider variety of interesting content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Display advertising can be a useful part of your legal marketing strategy. Display ads are, simply put, ads that rely on visuals. This can include visuals like<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Images<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Video<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Photos<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Gifs<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u25cf Creative text<\/p>\n\n\n\n Display ads can appear on websites or in apps and maybe a simple static image or something more complex. Banner ads on a website are a common form of display ads because they feature prominently on a website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You will probably not see any conversion come directly from Display advertising. But you will now be and maintain a position in your potential client’s top of mind. Some areas where you will see an increase are your branded searches (Google Search Console), direct traffic, and overall leads & conversions (Google Analytics)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Emails may seem like a simple and even old-school approach, but they\u2019re far from dead. Email marketing has proven to be an essential part of a law firm\u2019s growth<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Emails are effective because they are totally owned by you and your team. Instead of having to follow guidelines or being impacted by the algorithms of social media platforms, you can make your email marketing strategy whatever you want it to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Through email marketing, you speak directly to your client\u2019s inbox. This makes it a great way to build your brand image because they get to hear directly from you. You can check out the guide on how to build and maintain an email list for more information<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you consider these different strategies, remember that consistency is key. It\u2019s important that your brand image is consistent across all platforms and authentic to your company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to dig deeper into building your law firm\u2019s brand, check out the 3 Common Law Firm Brand Myths Debunked<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As a Content Manager in Consultwebs<\/a>\u2019 Marketing Department, Alessandra Torres<\/a> is responsible for producing engaging and clear text across all channels.
