Marketing for lawyers, accountants and professional services
It seems like Christmas was just a week or two ago, and yet somehow it’s February. Things are definitely full steam ahead in the Legal Writers office, but the same can’t be said for Parliament. With an election mooted for May, the government has unofficially entered caretaker mode and very little legislation is getting passed. That doesn’t mean that the courts and agencies are…
September was a busy month for our government as they reassessed their policies under a new leader. This has kept law-makers relatively quiet, although it promises to heat up in the coming months. But there’s still plenty of news this month to update your clients on, whether they’re corporates or individuals. If you’re struggling for ideas or time to get your marketing off the…
This month in the law – July 2018 Here at Legal Writers, we’ve wrapped up warmly to bring you this month’s Wrap Up.

We’ve brought you the best tidbits of legal news for all your content creation needs. If your…
It feels like Christmas was only yesterday but January has already whizzed past us. The summer recess for both Parliament and the courts means there haven’t been a lot of new developments this month. There’s always something happening, though, and we’ve rounded those changes up below. If you’re too busy catching up to write a newsletter or blog posts, get in touch, we’d be happy to…
This month in the law – November 2017 We may be approaching the end of 2017, but Parliament is sitting for one more week and the Courts don’t rise until 21 December, so there’s plenty of time left for new developments yet. While the hype has focused on the same-sex marriage plebiscite, a number of foreign parliamentarians, and the new Royal Commission into the banking…
As a marketing or practice manager, you’re placed in a difficult position every single day. Asking your busy professionals to write quality content so you can post it on your firm’s blog, add it to your newsletter or place it in an industry publication. While it’s an important part of marketing, it’s a big ask for your fee earners to find a few hours to…
Podcasts aren’t just another way to get content out. They’re a powerful tool that’s growing in popularity amongst media outlets and marketing professionals alike. It gives you the ability to build a trusted relationship and get highly engaged listeners, all for the price of an entry-level microphone and some editing software. Australian law firms have been slow to jump on the podcast trend, but…
I speak to a lot of law firms, talking about their marketing and helping them to create content that suits their brand, clients and budget. One thing that I hear often is that content is very costly and time-consuming for them to produce their law firm’s blog because their senior partners are heavily involved in its production and often become a bottleneck. This always amazes…

You may have heard this oft-quoted statistic from SiriusDecisions: 70% of the buyer’s journey is done before they reach out. Inbound marketing focuses on creating quality content that aligns with the interests of your desired customers. They’ll find your content organically, which means you’ll already be established in their…
