DESCRIPTION
By leveraging a law firm’s network of relationships, marketing and business development departments can generate and win business with new and existing clients. It takes the right processes, people, technology and strategies to build these successful contact and relationship management systems. During this webinar, our business development experts – Jonathan Pohl and Kevin O’Brien – explored ways in which Enterprise Relationship Management (ERM) is evolving and improving long-standing weaknesses of data-entry-focused CRM. They shared ERM best practices from the industry’s leading law firms on implementation, adoption and usage, and data maintenance. Our experts also discussed Social CRM and its impact on the traditional CRM strategy.

integrate all the data earlier.’”
- SPI Research CRM Magazine

NLJ CRM Adoption Statistics
• CRM purchase rate consistently near top of ILTA Tech Purchase list
between 2010 and 2011 (scores of 11 and 10, respectively)
• 2010 ILTA Tech Survey: < 50% of lawyers actually use CRM once
implemented
• Email management tops IT’s issues list for 2011 (as it has since 2008)
Law firms continue to invest in CRM even as
users adopt new hardware (mobile) and
paradigms (social).

Four Key Take-aways:
1. CRM in legal lags other industries, but the gap is narrowing as
more and more firms implement it.
2. Collaboration and adoption is foundational to CRM success.
3. Users are increasingly engaging with the “social web”; CRM
needs to do so as well.

accuracy data management.

and tools to build personal and social
relationships that result in business growth and
profits that are measurable and scalable

Social CRM
“Social CRM’ in a sense is just ‘CRM’ as it was intended to be by
academics and analysts during the past decade. CRM is a businesses
strategy and an approach not a technology…
The emphasis was on the ‘M’ for management rather than the ‘R’ for
relationship…”
– Gartner February 2012
