August 2 2022 with Jerry and Laura
Update:
- has posted the ad for Litigation / Probate attorney
- on track to bring in 700-800K this year (over 400% increase since starting with BBMM)
- even with the increase he is still having cash flow issues.
Growth work:
- needs to have TWO or more "technicians/ producer" for each position: Estate, Lit/ probate, paralegal to have the cash flow and ability to take time off. Because if one quits he is in a bind.
- went through P&L statement and cash sheet to see where expenses can be cut. Main areas were Personal Development (mindset calls) and software.
- after cutting the expenses tally up the savings and send us the dollar amount.

Questions:
- possible down-sell: online documents drafted w/o paying an attorney $2100/ year "Lawyers with Purpose" Guider.Legal
- payroll requirement - pay weekly salary to himself?
- Marketing plan
- Pam is down to two days per week instead of five
Growth work:
- find out if "Lawyers with Purpose" payment is before or after the client fills in the information. If it is before they start to fill out the information then proceed.
