With clear guidelines for marketing and business development by experience level, this tool is immensely helpful. I’ve had many partners comment on how smart this checklist is, and that they wish they had something like this when they were coming up the ranks.”

His book details realistic and attainable marketing and business-development activities.  I am a fifth-year associate and have been implementing the recommendations for a few years and can already see how they are positioning me to generate business in the future. I strongly recommend this valuable checklist to associates at all levels – from First-Year lawyers fresh out of school to senior associates who are eligible for partner. Thank you, Ross!”

“Ross has turned an intimidating and challenging process into simple, practical, and systematic steps. I have used his checklist for many years with great success. Associates whom I have worked with regularly comment that marketing is much less daunting in small steps. He has removed the “deer in the headlights” moment and crafted something they can embrace and see success.  We ordered 500 copies for all of our associates.”
