Technology in Marketing: Competitive Intelligence in Law Firms
Editor's Note: This month we are privileged to have a guest columnist, Shannon Sankstone of Quarles & Brady. Shannon's article builds upon the presentation she will be making at the Competitive Intelligence for Law Firms Conference on April 8 with the American Conference Institute. The link to the conference is: www.americanconference.com/law_firm/CI.htm. Joshua Fruchter's column will appear in the May issue followed by Nancy Manzo's column in June.
