Are subjects such as competitive intelligence, branding, industry trends, market analysis and client feedback important to you and your firm? If so: What issues should you research? Are they in fact researchable? How should you go about it? How much should it cost? And how reliable are the results? What so other law firms really do? What does a world class market research program look like?
These and other topics will be explored by a two of the most highly experienced and well-regarded market research professionals in the legal industry, all of whom have a prime focus on law firms. There will be considerable cross talk among the panelists and there may well be issues on which they disagree.
You're sure to find the dialogue enlightening and you will be encouraged to participate. In fact, much of the discussion will deal with questions from you, including those you can submit in advance of the session.
Whatever your position, our experts looks forward to addressing market research issues that are uppermost in your mind and key to your firm's progress and success. So please don't hesitate to also invite those whom you believe can not only best challenge the panel, but also most optimally benefit from the panelists' thoughtful opinions and responses.
