Ditch The Billable Hour! Implementing Value-Based Pricing in a Law Firm
Shaun Jardine, solicitor, former law firm CEO and now, author, has hatched his new book, Ditch The Billable Hour! Implementing Value-Based Pricing in a Law Firm.
Shaun explains why lawyers and law firms need to shift from time-based billing to value-based pricing (VBP), and provides a wealth of deep yet entertaining insights and tools on how to do it.
Value-based pricing is a smart business strategy that I have endorsed forever and provided to clients for years.
This is why my advice that lawyers need to “be a farmer, not a hunter” to nurture relationships and convert targeted prospects into clients is included within Shaun’s book.
