Effective Ways to Connect Throughout the Year
In-person events are an excellent way to network and train, but what about opportunities to connect throughout the year? If you are not already in one, we highly recommend looking into focused networking groups in your area or online message boards and social media groups to stay connected.
For cj Advertising clients, we go a step further and host monthly roundtables with some of the top-performing law firms across North America. We have separate roundtable groups for law firm intake, marketing, and operations, and in between roundtables, members of the group can still communicate with each other on an email list. It’s a great opportunity to ask questions and share with and learn from peers.
To learn how you can join these roundtable groups, contact us at askus@cjadvertising.com. We hope to hear from you or see you at one or more of the events shared above!
