  • When to DIY & When to Call in the Pros — Mailbag Edition
    May 7 2025
    Should your agency be charging you for managing your LSAs? Are there things your in-house marketing team should be leaving to the experts? Today, the guys open the mailbag and answer these two great listener questions. Is it worth paying an agency anything for Google LSA management, or are you getting scammed out of a chunk of your marketing budget? Well, it depends, and the guys’ opinions may vary. Gyi and Conrad dig into a listener question to explain what LSA management could/should look like, what value it may bring to you, and whether ongoing fees are appropriate. Later, question 2! Should lawyers with an in-house marketing team entrust all their digital marketing to said team, or do they need to call in an expert agency for certain advertising channels? The guys talk about the realities of expertise gaps and how partnerships can really take your marketing efforts to the next level. Stay tuned to the end for a special announcement from Gyi and Conrad! The News: Brilliant or clueless—did this lawyer do this for the news hype & free advertising?

  • Ranking Your Local Competitors – Hot or Not?
    Apr 23 2025
    If lots of site traffic isn’t leading to lots of clients, something’s off. Learn how to get the traffic you want! Later, Gyi and Conrad unpack the marketing impact of publicly ranking all your competition—genius or folly? ----- You want website traffic that could turn into actual clients for your law firm, but how do you make sure you’re reaching the right audience? Gyi and Conrad talk tactics for segmenting your audience to make sure you get the qualified leads that can turn into profitable business for your law firm. Next, in a bold move, a Seattle family lawyer pulled a Zuckerberg and rated all of his local competitors, except himself. What do the guys think about the Hemmet Trends Report? While it may be a sure-fire way to torch some of your local relationships, this kind of friction marketing can be a very successful way to get your name out there. The News: Google quality raters now assess whether content is AI-generated. What does this mean for your copy/pasted ChatGPT posts? You might want to seriously do that human edit. This could be big for local business, folks: TikTok takes on Google Maps by surfacing reviews in the comments tab. What do we think about Sponsored Youtube Comments? So far, it seems like a pretty solid tactic.

  • BREAKING: Google Expands Use of Local Service Ad Data
    Apr 22 2025
    Just when you thought you understood Local Services Ads (LSAs), Google changes the game. Gyi and Conrad sound the alarm on the latest shift in LSA terms—and this one’s a doozy. Google now claims the right to tweak, repurpose, and plaster your ad content wherever it wants. Cool cool cool… unless you’re a lawyer who cares about things like client confidentiality and ethics. Is this a harmless update? A marketing landmine? Or just another “oops, didn’t read the fine print” moment? The guys debate what opting in *really* means, how it could affect your firm, and why blind trust in Big Tech is looking less like a best practice and more like a liability. Insight from Anthony Higman on LinkedIn Takeaways: Google’s changing the rules on LSAs—again. Your ad content? They can now modify and use it freely. Ethics red flag: This could compromise client confidentiality. Most lawyers have no idea this is happening. Opting in might mean opening a can of worms. Google’s rollout? Vague at best. Legal marketers are losing faith. Ad performance and trust are both on the line. Law firms must weigh ethical risks before opting in. Transparency isn’t optional—it’s essential.
