131: How to Make Your Online Profiles Stand Out – Chris Brown

 

chris___brown___700px_CA4112_635920058760373752

Chris Brown is the founder of b.Legal Marketing, where he and his team help lawyers in small law firms look credible online.

After working as a full-time startup and corporate law attorney for three and a half years, Chris decided to use his skill set to help lawyers improve their marketing efforts. So he became a “repurposed lawyer” and founded b.Legal Marketing. Today, he and his team provide a complete website solution for small law firms.

Although Chris is now a repurposed lawyer, he still practices law part time. Rather than leaving the practice entirely, Chris created Venture Legal so he could continue representing a small number of tech startup clients. Using his understanding of how to market a law firm, he was successful in building a sustainable solo law practice, and today he turns away more business than he accepts so he can focus more on building small law firm websites.
