Marketing Your Practice on the Internet
and On-line Networks: What's It All About?
by Erika Penzer

A handful of forward-
thinking attorneys have
discovered a new medium
that is incrediLy effective
for marketing legal ser-
vices: the new world of on-
line networks. Through
e-mail, participation in
electronic discussion
groups and mailing lists,
and the Internet's World
Wide Web, lawyers can
reach new markets and
meet clients they might
otherwise have never
found-without leaving
their desks and, in most
cases, with a minimal
investment.
On-line participation is
another way for you to tell
people that you exist,
describe what you do, and
offer enough information
to get them interested (but
not so much that they don't
need to retain you).
You can market your-
self on-line:
of By participating in
Internet newsgroups, Lexis

Counsel Connect discus-
sion groups, and legal-
related interactive forums
on other on-line networks
of By monitoring attor-
ney referral areas like
Lexis Counsel Connect's
Corporate Counsel
Inquiries and Law Firm
Inquiries forums and
answering queries that
match your expertise
f By serving as a pan-
elist for on-line seminars
o' By listing yourself in
electronic directories and
referral networks
IV By sending monthly
e-mail alerts to your
clients, updating them on
important developments in
your practice area
Mr By maintaining a
homepage with monthly
newsletters, client updates,
question-and-answer
forums, and lawyer profiles.
it By contributing your
newsletters and client up-
dates to on-line libraries.
