Last Chance to Register for Cross Selling Webinar

By Larry Bodine

Today is the last chance to register for webinar on Thursday June 24: Cross-Selling - How to Get Clients to Use More of Your Services.

Just added: Anthony Green, CEO of Concep Global digital marketing, will describe how to use email and web tracking to identify cross-selling targets.

On Thursday, June 24, 2010 at Noon (central time) my colleague Michael G. Cummings and I will show you how to overcome the reluctance of billing partners to cross sell their partners.  This is a problem that can be overcome, but it takes coordinated action by all the lawyers at a firm.

Most law firms could easily double their revenues if they just cross sold their clients effectively. Register today for the webinar and we'll tell you the magic of getting clients to use more of your firm's services.

In this skills mastery seminar, through real world examples and from the practices of the top rainmakers, you will learn how to sell more services to your existing client base. You will understand how to sell follow-on work to current matters and introduce other practice specialties that the client needs.

• Recognizing the four recurring obstacles to cross-selling and ways that you can overcome them.
• Why cross-marketing and cross-selling is essential to keeping a client for years to come.
• Required attitudes and assumptions to make cross-selling work.
