Job Tips: Best Bang For Your Advertising Buck

It feels like we live in the billboard attorney capital of the world, but is that really the best use of advertising money? How are you marketing yourself or your firm these days? Are blogs still a thing? Is direct mail worth it? Do you pay for targeted advertising on Facebook? Is getting your name on something at a local sporting event worthwhile? Is word of mouth still the best way to get quality clients? Hosting a radio or tv show? For you insurance defense people, are you blowing your ad budget on schmoozing with adjusters at a conference? Are paid-for advertisement articles a good way to get your name out there? Oh, and do you file all your advertising with the State Bar?

I know.. I called, but it didn't work out. You were ugly and then you wanted money afterwards.

You didn't complain when you were on the other side of the glory hole.

I think if you want to create a high volume but lower quality caseload, then advertising on tv and billboards is the way to go. It appears to me, in the personal injury world, that word of mouth is the way to go if you have an excellent reputation as a trial firm that achieves high results.

In fairness to Crump, he, like Lerner, Jose Baez, and a bunch of other gimmicky shmucks, have nailed the fuck out of their shitty role in this universe, and probably makes more than any of the people that post on this blog combined.

God Bless America.

At the risk of finding out that the answer is even worse than I fear, what exactly about Benjamin Crump do you find to render him a prehistoric hominid?
