Lead Conversion Rates: Knowing Your Benchmarks
If you don’t know the benchmarks, you have no way of knowing if you’re meeting them.
If your conversion rates are between 50% and 60%, the industry’s average conversion rate might surprise you.
A competitive firm benchmark is anywhere between 87.5% to 92.5%. If you’re not in this range, you have a tremendous opportunity to improve your conversion rates and boost your law firm’s bottom line.
Boosting Your Lead Conversion Rate
Taking your firm’s conversion rates from 50% to 92.5% takes work, but it’s not impossible. You have to take a systematic approach to handle leads that include a script, an aggressive follow-up system, and a professionally-trained intake staff.
Taking these simple-but-important steps will help you move the needle a little more each month and put your firm on the path from mediocre to competitive.
In the short-term, these gains might look small. You could start converting a couple more cases each month. But by the end of the year, you could convert additional cases without spending another single advertising dollar.
