Lawyer Lifestyle Podcast - Marketing, Leadership, Sales

Join Chicago attorney Dave Scriven-Young on a daily journey to discover key principles in the areas of marketing, sales (particularly closing) and leadership. A big challenge for law firm attorneys is that their work is driven (mostly) by the billable hour. If lawyers do not have enough clients of their own to fill up the day and to employ a few associates, the lawyers' lifestyle and career are up to the whims of someone else. That person has all the cards and can live the lifestyle that most people dream of.
