Law Firms receive hundreds, if not thousands of enquiries each month. The conversion of these enquiries is critical to the success, profits and future of a law firm.
Dependent on the type of work (i.e conveyancing, family law etc), firms expect anywhere between 20%-40% conversion of inbound enquiries to client instruction.
Some technology-led law firms are now achieving 50%- 70% conversion - meaning higher revenue and cash flow for firm longevity.
Let’s say one file is worth £500 of margin.
100 new enquiries per month at 30% conversion is £15,000 profit (or £180,000 per Annum)… verses 100 new enquiries at 60% conversion bringing £30,000 profit (or £360,000 per annum!!!) The financial impact of not increasing conversion rates is critical.
Thehow to achieve this is by implementing the relevant technology, more specifically, omnichannel. Omnichannel is a customisable dashboard to manage client enquiries across any channel, be it traditional methods such as telephony and email to more modern methods such as web chat, Facebook and Twitter.
Law firms can now
View reports which show:
? Profitability v marketing spend per marketing channel
By department
By source i.e website, webchat, social media
Monthly and trend
Missed enquiries & wait-time in, real-time
Full integration with CMS / PMS to log all client interactions and case details
Automatically schedule follow-ups into diaries
Captured and Analyse content and tone of conversations through AI processes
The tangible benefits being delivered in doing so:
Enhanced Conversion Rates for Inbound Enquiries
50%- 70% clearly deliverable
More Revenue and Gross Profit
Better experience for both clients and staff
Enhanced Cashflow
Enhanced return on marketing spend investment
Convert low-hanging fruit by CMS integration
Lower cost per file – most cost-effective routes to market
More new and retained clients through enhanced communication and content experience
Enhanced business decision-making, management and supervision through the right data being available
We are offering members of Manchester Law Society complimentary demonstrations on how omnichannel works for a Law Firm. To book yours, email Victor Lisowski, Head of Legal Accounts at VictorL@matrix247.com
Currently looking after over 120 law firms, I’d love to share ideas about how law firms are maximising conversion rates with our technology.
