Get Your Attorneys To Write: Eleven Tips

By Edie Reinhardt
April 02, 2017

Do you find it difficult to encourage or coerce attorneys to write articles and blog posts? One of the toughest aspects of content marketing is generating content on a reliable basis. The bad news is you cannot take attorneys out of the process completely because they are the subject matter experts. The good news is you can use various tactics to motivate and help them to produce good content.

1. Start with a Good Example. Is there someone in the firm who is interested in being your champion? Start with that person and explain to everyone all the ways his/her content is going to be distributed and promoted by the firm. Then make sure you showcase the results. How many people was it marketed to? Is the content being viewed and shared? Are other sites linking to the content? Has the person or the firm heard from clients, prospects or the media? Are there improvements in search rankings and web traffic? Ideally, your champion will also become an influencer within the firm to help encourage others to participate.
