Best Blog Posts of July: How to Blog, Close Business, Deals, and Onboard New People

This is my 77th post in a series of monthly features that I have dubbed “Best of My Blog Roll.” The concept is simple – at the end of a month, I peruse my own blog roll (see that column on the right) for material created by other bloggers that I think is most worthy of sharing with others, and then I report on it here.

Reviewing blog posts for July 2019, I have chosen to highlight the following posts:

• A nice meaty post by Lindsay Griffiths on “Zen and the Art of Legal Networking” about “onboarding” new employees, highlighting best and worst practices, as well as the critical importance of thoughtfully executing well-planned integrations of new lawyers and staff.
• A helpful post by Craig Brown on the LawVision blog about when and how to close on business proposals only after taking the requisite relationship-building steps.
• A “how to” post by Cordell Parvin on making your blog unique so that clients and prospects will read it.
• A post by the Clockwork Design Group on “Why Service Firms Should Use Branded Hashtags.”
