Fairley will speak on two topics. The first is Law Firm Marketing Strategies in a Social Media World: Connecting with Clients, Prospects and Referral Sources on LinkedIn and Facebook.  Each session will provide attendees with one hour of MCLE credit, including one hour of Professional Responsibility MCLE credit (pending approval).

"Social media is one of the fastest growing areas where attorneys can generate high quality leads, while simultaneously building relationships with potential referral sources," said Fairley.

The second topic is titled, 5 Proven Ways to Renew, Restore, and Revive Your Practice…Starting Monday, which will focus on the three critical areas law firms must focus on this year to grow revenues; two of the biggest reasons most legal marketing efforts fail; and best practices in business development for small firms.

"Many attorneys have been struggling to implement cost-effective marketing strategies that produce real results," said Fairley.  "In this session I'm going to show attendees what's working and what isn't in legal marketing. I will also share case studies from several very successful attorneys who have significantly increased their revenues during this economic recession."
