6 Executive summary A GREAT deal has been written, blogged, tweeted, and even published in the traditional manner on the topic of social networking. For some it has created new careers and opened a world of collaboration and opportunity. McKinsey estimated that the application of corporate social networking platforms could result in productivity improvements of almost 25 per cent. 1 IBM s worldwide study of 1,700 CEOs identified that those most likely to outperform the competition are those who embrace a culture of openness and cite the use of social tools as a key aid. 2 There is certainly no shortage of experts willing to share their particular take on maximising social media for personal and business advantage. So why then are so many owners, partners, directors, and managers still confused or unsure of the true benefits of social networking? Perhaps there is just too much information bombarding the business and legal communities. This report therefore aims to cut through the confusion, to focus on the key aspects of social networking mediums, and to offer practical advice on developing a social networking strategy for a law firm. The report will look at both the wellpublicised external side of social networking and the growing trend to adopt the platforms for internal communication. The world looks somewhat different now than it did 10 years ago. The global financial crash and the subsequent fall out for business and consumers is something we are all adapting to. Cost saving, client care, compliance, and acquiring and retaining the right talent for firms have been, and continue to be, key priorities. It has become harder to motivate and engage with employees who are themselves concerned about their future. Equally, it has become harder to win new business as clients seek greater savings and increased value from additional service delivery. Changes in legislation and the rise of independent legal service providers have driven many practices to closure and have left others vulnerable to aggressive acquisition. It is a tough time for the legal profession. However, what was true of successful firms in the past remains true today in terms of clients and staff. The best firms have a vision, a clear focus on clients, and they know who those clients are, where they are to be found, and essentially what those clients are looking for. These firms recruit the best talent and keep them motivated and well trained with a keen client centric approach to all matters. Law firms nowadays cannot survive by simply having a website, placing adverts, and by paying staff and lawyers a decent salary and offering good benefits. So, what do these firms need to do to thrive in the twenty-first century? While the full answer to that question is admittedly likely to encompass more than a social networking strategy, this report looks specifically at how social networking as a medium to communicate and engage will help develop a legal practice. V
7 Executive summary This report provides a detailed definition of social networking and its background leading up to the current day. Twenty-one of the leading platforms are analysed with statistical data provided to help determine which may prove the most advantageous for a firm s particular needs. The report looks at current trends, how clients are using social media, and the manner in which law firms can use the platforms to engage in meaningful dialogue. Without launching into overly technical jargon, it looks at the technology that lies behind the media and explores how it is evolving. One very important section of the report investigates the social firm, and drills down into the model of a law firm using social networking tools in each and every possible facet of their business. Consideration of the risk and exposure of social media use by employees, the reputational factors, and its use in recruitment also feature within this report. The report also looks at examples of networking across firms. Knowledge sharing and collaborative working have led to an all-important increase in job satisfaction. There are challenges to be faced in making internal processes work and these are explored fully. The report reviews the important strategic thinking behind a social networking plan and considers the steps to be taken in creating a workable and successful campaign. One key obstacle to social networking is often the internal perception of new technology and its place in the legal world. For some firms this is not an issue, however, for many it remains a sticking point with strong views often expressed on the time and resource spent with little tangible view of returns. To assist in this aspect of planning, this report considers methodologies and strategies to implement. Being able to put forward a strong proposition will require evidence of analysis and ongoing measurement. This should not be overlooked in any social networking initiative, external or internal, and this report assists by discussing the various options, tools, and management methods of measuring social media activity. The report concludes with a number of case studies which help to bring to life key elements of the report. Information on staff engagement, external marketing, and making social networking a core part of the business has been shared by the case study law firms. Overall, this report aims to demystify the world of social networking, to provide practical guidelines on developing a strategy for a law firm, and to help create a positive approach to this increasingly important field of business development and management.

8 About the author DAVID LAUD is the chief executive of Samuel Phillips Law Firm, a chartered marketer, and a fellow of the Chartered Institute of Marketing. In addition, he runs his own marketing consultancy and smart phone application company.

Over time, David identified the potential of the medium for his own businesses and clients. To keep up to date with developments he maintains a wide variety of social networking accounts and was recently selected by the BBC to contribute to a Radio 4 debate as a social media specialist. Despite business interests and social media taking a large part of David s time, he still finds a spare moment to take part in the odd run. To date he has completed 13 half marathons.

10 Acknowledgements IT IS hoped that readers will find this report useful and, above all, that it is a tool that can be referred to in managing the social networking activity of your firm both internally and externally. Writing this, my second publication for Managing Partner/Ark Group, has been a timely exercise. As with the first report, researching and writing the chapters proved invaluable in refreshing and improving my appreciation of the complexities of managing this growing medium. There are a number of very important individuals who have assisted in bringing this project to its completion. I must thank my family for their patience in losing me for many weekends and evenings hopefully it will have proved worthwhile. Once again I am very grateful for the opportunity presented to me by Managing Partner/Ark Group and the trust that Helen Roche and the team have placed in me and my fellow contributors. Those fellow contributors have delivered excellent content and I am very grateful for the time and professionalism of James Mullan and Gordon Vala-Webb. I appreciate how hard it can be to juggle a busy working schedule with writing detailed content of this nature. Case studies are always very useful for readers to review and learn from real examples of firms experiences with social media. Thank you to Colin Gilbert of DGAA, Sarah Zokay-West of Stanley de Leon, Victoria Cornfield of Tilly Bailey & Irvine, and Paul Thewlis and Kathryn Hobbs of Wragge & Co. I trust that this report will help shape and support the management of your social networking activities. I welcome comments and would be happy to engage in a discussion on any of the points covered in the following chapters. You can find me on David Laud XI
