A couple of weeks ago, MLT’s David Kerr welcomed the arrival of his second child, Alice (congrats, Dave and Nic, she’s beautiful!).

A recent article from Legal Futures highlights how small and mid-sized law firms are experiencing falling income and lower levels of profitability.

Our Chris Davidson recently published a piece on how in-house legal marketers manage many spinning plates as part of their roles. Having been an in-house marketer in leading law firms himself (and indeed with various members of our team having formerly been in-house marketing professionals), Chris noted that he finds it “heartening that law firms are recognising the value of having in-house marketing support during these times of unprecedented change in the legal profession.”

But even with the best in-house legal marketing resource, there are many sound business reasons for outsourcing all or part of your firm’s digital marketing, whether working alongside an existing in-house digital marketer or not.

As Moore Legal Technology’s Operations Director, I’ve learnt a tremendous amount about what it takes to plan and implement a culture of operational excellence in a fast-paced work environment.
