FindLaw Voice Connect: Never Miss a Call

According to an analysis of FindLaw call data, 18 percent of client calls occur outside of business hours. Seventy percent of callers never leave a message when calls are answered by a voicemail service. (Alex Drumheller, National Account Executive at AnswerNet, 2010.)

So how can you make yourself available to current and prospective clients whenever they need you, while still finding time to live your life?

Enter Voice Connect, a new product within the Conversion Solutions portfolio.

FindLaw certainly doesn't rest on its laurels. We provide so many different ways for you to reach you marketing goals. In that spirit, FindLaw announces four new additions to its Lawyer Marketing offerings. Take a look at these new products:

Conversion Advantage: Building on all the benefits of WebChat Connect, Conversion Advantage takes your website's chat service one step further by offering an additional suite of features designed to help you manage and connect with key prospects. Talk about maximizing your live chat -- Conversion Advantage gives your firm the knowledge to make critical business decisions. Further, "hot transfer" empowers a chat operator to connect a key prospect directly to your firm via phone, based on specific practice area and keyword requirements, and within firm-designated business hours you set.

New Product Feature: WebChat Connect

Unfortunately, getting a potential client to visit your website is only the first step in converting them to becoming an actual client. This issue begs the obvious question, are you investing as much in converting online visitors as you are in attracting them?

Even if you answered yes to that question, every online legal marketing campaign can benefit from FindLaw’s latest product: WebChat Connect. WebChat Connect is a 24/7 online staffed chat service that allows you to connect to online visitors in a much more meaningful way.
