Ackert’s Business Development Institute shared valuable insights for how legal marketers can serve as business experts and revenue enablers. The faculty offered practical, actionable advice based on their vast experience in the legal industry, and I came away feeling empowered and excited about how I can create better ROI for my firm. I recommend BDI to any legal marketer who is interested in sharpening their skills, making a greater impact and growing in their careers.

The most valuable insights I received while enrolled in the Business Development Institute were the ones that honed in on skills I already had in my toolbox, such as developing relationships, building rapport, and identifying opportunities. Recognizing and expanding upon my own skillset provided me the ability to further develop coaching strategies and better communicate those initiatives to the attorneys. BDI also allowed me to speak with other revenue enablers and cultivate professional relationships, which is invaluable in the legal community.

The takeaways I got from the Business Development Institute have made me a more well-rounded marketing and BD professional. I’ll be able to look at marcom programs with a more holistic approach and seek out BD opportunities that can result from them. The program gave me valuable takeaways that I can use to help attorneys develop their BD plans and maximize my own time on strategic initiatives.
