About this listen

Welcome to episode 294 of Grow Your Law Firm, hosted by Ken Hardison. In this episode, Ken is joined by Stuart Foster, co-founder of Law Firm Fractional CMOs, to explore how law firms can modernize their marketing and stand out in today’s hyper-competitive legal landscape.
Stuart brings decades of experience leading global marketing for brands like L’Oréal, Moët Hennessy, Hilton, and Topgolf. As a seasoned fractional CMO, he now helps small and midsize law firms develop winning strategies, manage agency relationships, and create sustainable growth—without the overhead of hiring in-house. If you’re tired of random marketing tactics and ready to build a system that works, this episode is for you.


What you’ll learn about in this episode:
  1. Why execution without strategy leads to wasted marketing spend
    – Most law firms jump into tactics like SEO or PPC without a clear plan
    – A solid marketing strategy must align with business goals and target audiences

  2. How to differentiate your firm in a saturated legal market
    – Generic messaging like “we win big” no longer cuts through the noise
    – Law firms must find unique positioning and voice that resonates with clients

  3. The importance of client-centered messaging over firm credentials
    – Clients care more about outcomes and empathy than awards or titles
    – Speak to what your clients are worried about—not just what you’ve achieved

  4. Simple ways to analyze your client base and adjust targeting
    – Data on demographics, case types, and referral sources reveals key patterns
    – Many firms are surprised to find they’re speaking to the wrong audience

  5. What fractional CMOs actually do—and why your firm might need one
    – Fractional CMOs provide strategic leadership and manage execution
    – They bring executive-level marketing expertise at a fraction of the cost
