Imagine a marketing landscape where you can share your expertise in your chosen areas of law, profiling success stories and showcasing how you do things to deliver results, all in an engaging article that’s enjoyable to read, in front of a highly targeted audience who need your services.

That’s precisely the golden opportunity you have by implementing a program of quality published content. Blogs, articles, posts… whatever you call them, well-written, well-presented stories with genuinely useful information are hard to beat in building a favourable perception of your brand

INDUSTRY STAT:
52% more organic (i.e. free) traffic is generated by B2B companies which publish educational content as opposed to those which publish content focussed on their own organisation and services (Backlinko, 2021)

DRUM INSIGHT:
Law firms have a fantastic opportunity to set themselves apart and cultivate a reputation as leaders in their field by sharing knowledge, real life legal success and insights, which teach and make a tangible difference to the lives of their audience.
