Lawyers, do you need clients? That’s why you don’t get them.

Nobody wants to hire an attorney who needs clients. They want an attorney who is extremely busy but willing to make room for one more deserving client.

Busy attorneys are successful. Validated by their busy-ness. They must be good. Look at all the other people who say so.

Attorneys who need clients are not successful. They may be competent, they may deliver great service, they may be everything a client could want in an attorney, but if they need clients, well, they can’t really be good, can they?

To attract good clients you need to be attractive. That’s not something you can fake. This is not about pretending to be busy or letting people think you are important because you had lunch with someone important. Being attractive is not on the outside.

Being attractive means knowing your value. It means loving yourself and your gifts and wanting to share those gifts through your work. It means walking with confidence and an inner peace, trusting completely in the inevitability of your success.

Being attractive means knowing that no matter what your financial situation is right now, you don’t need clients, they need you. You don’t look for clients, you let them find you.

Wanting clients is fine. Needing clients is why you don’t get them.

Marketing means showing people the value you offer. Here’s how.
