While the analytics available on Twitter are slightly less detailed than Facebook, they aren’t any less important. It’s important not to waste time analyzing the unhelpful numbers.

You’ve been regularly posting on your law firm’s social media channels and now you are wondering if the return on investment (ROI) is there.

While some lawyers still abhor social media as a whole, even the most resistant are at least members of LinkedIn. As individual attorneys should be engaging in business-to-business marketing (B2B) as part of their business development and marketing efforts, LinkedIn is a great fit for lawyers looking to network online. LinkedIn ranks high as a B2B social media platform, and has garnered 500 million users as of 2018.

These days, clients want authenticity from the businesses they work with, especially when it comes to law firms. In order to connect with your audiences (including future clients), your law firm must communicate in a clear and consistent voice across every marketing and advertising outlet.
Social media marketing for lawyers cannot be discussed without mentioning LinkedIn. Known as the “professional social network,” LinkedIn is one of the online marketing tools lawyers fear least, although it has undergone some significant changes over the past several years. In contrast to apps like Pinterest and Snapchat, lawyers are likely already using LinkedIn to some extent. And if you are on it, your colleagues are probably already on it too.
