About this listen

 Jake Soffer is the Founder and CEO of FirmPilot, the AI-powered marketing platform transforming how law firms attract premium clients through data-driven SEO, content, and automation. Inspired by his brother’s struggles with ineffective agency marketing, Jake built FirmPilot to eliminate guesswork and costly waste in legal marketing using advanced AI insights and competitive analysis. A seasoned entrepreneur, he previously co-founded Rollio, an AI assistant for Salesforce, and holds degrees in Computer Engineering and Systems Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and NYU, grounding his work in deep technical expertise. Under his leadership, FirmPilot has secured notable venture backing and continues to drive innovation in legal tech and marketing.In this episode, John, Kyle, and Jake discuss:How FirmPilot evolved from a failed early attempt into an AI-driven legal marketing platformWhy generic AI tools like ChatGPT fail at legal content—and what FirmPilot built to fix itThe importance of multi-channel marketing and why no single strategy is a “silver bullet.”How personalization, Google’s AI changes, and data patterns are reshaping SEO and ads for law firmsHow FirmPilot uses legal data and behavior signals to deliver stronger ROI for firmsKey Takeaways:FirmPilot emerged when Jake realized that traditional agencies and basic AI tools couldn’t create accurate, authoritative legal content. This led him to build a dedicated legal-focused AI engine designed specifically for law firms.Relying on a single lead source is risky, especially with constant changes in Google and AI platforms. A multi-channel strategy protects long-term growth and keeps firms competitive.A drop in traffic under Google’s AI mode doesn’t necessarily signal poor performance. In many cases, it simply means the firm is attracting fewer unqualified visitors and more high-intent prospects.Search results are becoming increasingly personalized based on user behavior. Because of this shift, smaller firms can compete more effectively when their content mirrors real user patterns and preferences.For FirmPilot, AI isn’t a marketing buzzword — it’s the engine that drives measurable ROI and operational efficiency. Their system enables sharply targeted strategies that outperform traditional methods.“You're not just the attorney who's looking to grow the firm. It's also your livelihood, your business. You're an entrepreneur. You're the CEO of this firm. It's how you feed your kids and your family. So, you want that silver bullet answer. If someone's trying to sell you that, run the other way. There is no silver bullet. It's a series of lead bullets, as I like to say. You have to be multi-channel.” - Jake SofferConnect with Jake Soffer: Website: https://firmpilot.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jake-soffer-jd-00797a62/ Connect with John and Kyle:Website: https://defactodigitalconsulting.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-schroeder-b87b3821a/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DeFactoDigitalInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/defactodigitalconsulting/Emails: john@defactodigitalconsulting.com , kyle@defactodigitalconsulting.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Angelo Paul TagamaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
