The Profitable Practice Programme For Lawyers Who Want More Clients And To Increase Profits Without Working More Hours
Who is it for?
Are you are a sole practitioner lawyer or other professional, or a partner in a small firm with responsibility for practice growth and business development for your practice area?
Do you want more clients, and to increase your profits without working more hours than you already do?
If so, this programme will help you do just that.
The Profitable Practice Programme is designed for you if:

- You know you need to take action if you want to get more clients and grow your practice but you always seem to be too busy to create a practice growth plan or you’re not sure that your existing plan is the best use of your time and resources
- You feel like you don’t have enough time to do all the things you’re expected to do in your role and want to learn the ‘shortcuts’ when it comes to getting more clients and the ways to work smarter, not harder – and maybe even reduce your working hours.
- You want to cut out the costs (time and money) and uncertainty of marketing and business development activities that just don’t work and instead be shown which strategies will work for you and the best way to implement them
- You want to improve your business development and practice growth skills so you can get better results in less time – leaving you more time to get on with the fee-earning
- You’re fed up ‘thinking about’ all the ways you could grow your practice and just want help to get it done.
How Does It Work?
In this programme you will focus on installing and optimising the 3 Essential Elements of a Profitable Practice:
- Attract more enquiries from your ideal clients
- Convert more enquiries into paying clients
- Maximise your profits from existing clients


The Profitable Practice Programme consists of 3 core elements to help you achieve this result
- Strategic Planning (‘What’ you need to do)
- Skills and Tactics Training (‘How’ to do it)
- Support and Accountability (making sure you get it ‘done’).
When you combine these three elements you get Focus, Progress, and Action – and ultimately more profits.
“I never thought this would be possible but with guidance from Michelle, her patience,
her steer and her motivation to keep me aiming higher, I have achieved an increase of 140%
in fee income and 471% in profits so far – so nearly 5x profits compared to the start figure.
Needless to say, I will be working with Michelle for many years to come!”

What’s Included In My Programme?
The exact contents of your programme depend upon which level of programme you join in. But there are some common elements too.
Getting Started: Your Strategic Action Plan
When you join the programme you will have a 60-90 min private session during which we will create a one page Strategic Action Plan to get more clients and increase your profits over the next 12 months with a specific action plan for the next 90 days. This ensures you know exactly what to focus on, and in what order, to achieve your growth and profitability goals. We’ll also review and update your Strategic Action Plan together every 90 days to make sure you stay on track.

“In a nutshell the whole course is extremely valuable – like a revelation, as if one has been
working in a perpetual fog all these years and now it has cleared to reveal crystal clear
scenery. Every client meeting that we have had since/ during the course has converted!”

Support, Feedback, Advice and Accountability
Your Strategic Action Plan is just the first step in the strategic planning process. You’ll be supported in implementing your Plan through the following:
- A monthly online Focus Session (60-90 minutes) for all members of the programme to help you get clear on what you need to do next, overcome any obstacles or challenges, and get my advice on specific strategies to make your practice more profitable
- An opportunity to get your questions answered and the implementation of your practice growth strategies reviewed and critiqued in the weekly online Drop-in Clinics. If you can’t attend live, then send in your questions and you’ll be sent a link to the recording so you can listen to the answer.
- Check-ins via email every two weeks to ensure you stay on track with your 90 Day Plan and always know exactly what steps to take next.
- At least two Mastermind days per year (in-person or Zoom sessions meetings with other members of the programme) where we’ll spend the day working on growing your firm or business, sharing best practices and what’s working best in your sector, and identifying how to accelerate your results.
