Marco Brown: Curating Relationships to Build Referrals and Make It Rain

IN THIS EPISODE, STEVE FRETZIN AND MARCO BROWN DISCUSS: __ __   KEY TAKEAWAYS: __ __   —  MARCO BROWN   Email Steve at Steve@Fretzin.com for a chance to audit one of his exclusive rainmaker round table groups in April!   THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS! Lawmatics: https://www.lawmatics.com/bethatlawyer/ Get Staffed Up: https://getstaffedup.com/bethatlawyer/ Green Cardigan Marketing: https://greencardiganmarketing.com/   EPISODE REFERENCES:  __ __   ABOUT MARCO BROWN: Marco grew up in a small village in Alaska called Cold Bay (population 85). He never did manage to graduate from high school, getting his GED before moving on to college, and eventually graduating with honors from law school. In 2010, Marco and his wife, Demaree, moved to Utah and Marco started Brown Family Law, with no clients and no network, on the floor of their condo. They were $160,000 in student loan debt at the time. Since then, Marco has been awarded Utah Family Law Attorney of the Year, as voted on by his peers in the Utah Bar Association. Brown Family Law has grown and helped over 4000 through divorce and family law situations in Utah, and its expanding beyond Utah to help people in other states. In his free time, Marco spends most of his time with his wife and three kids. He also loves to cook and travel, usually to Italy. For exercise, he does what he enjoys: walking and lifting heavy things and puts them down. #Utah#DivorceAttorney #BrownFamilyLaw   CONNECT WITH MARCO BROWN:   Website: https://www.brownfamilylaw.com/ Email: marco@brownfamilylaw.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcocbrown TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@divorceattorney   CONNECT WITH STEVE FRETZIN: LinkedIn: Steve Fretzin https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevefretzin/ Twitter: @stevefretzin https://twitter.com/stevefretzin Instagram: @fretzinsteve https://www.instagram.com/fretzinsteve/ Facebook: Fretzin, Inc. https://www.facebook.com/salesresults/ Website: Fretzin.com https://fretzin.com/ Email: Steve@Fretzin.com Book: Legal Business Development Isn't Rocket Science https://www.fretzin.com/about/books/ and more! https://fretzin.com/about/books/ YouTube: Steve Fretzin https://www.youtube.com/user/SalesResultsInc Call Steve directly at 847-602-6911     Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions. https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ You're the expert.

Paul Angelle: Living Your Dynamic Business Plan

IN THIS EPISODE, STEVE FRETZIN AND PAUL ANGELLE DISCUSS: __ __   KEY TAKEAWAYS: __ __   —PAUL ANGELLE   Find out more about the Mastering the Legal Clock and Thriving Event at: https://fretzin.com/events   THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS! Lawmatics: https://www.lawmatics.com/bethatlawyer/ Get Staffed Up: https://getstaffedup.com/bethatlawyer/ Green Cardigan Marketing: https://greencardiganmarketing.com/   EPISODE REFERENCES:  __ __   ABOUT PAUL ANGELLE: Paul Angelle never really had a choice; he was born into entrepreneurship. Working full-time in his father’s Cajun restaurant in south Louisiana from an early age, he learned the value of work through the lens of ownership. He never thought of himself as an employee as he proudly worked in the family business through college. That mindset would never change.  After graduating from the University of Louisiana with multiple degrees, he applied that same passion to sales. He was a natural salesman, a gifted networker, and very successful across multiple industries for over 20 years. In addition to starting his own successful media company, he earned a law degree from Loyola University in New Orleans which landed him a role as the first COO of a statewide, rapidly growing estate planning law firm. In that role, he managed a team of 20, and was instrumental in tripling revenue, increasing services, growing margins, and raising salaries during his 5+ years there. During the lockdown in early 2020, Paul wrote a personal growth book. He had it published in 2021 and experienced the process of a launch that landed him numerous interviews, multiple book signings, and more coaching and consulting requests than he could have ever predicted. He realized that his lifetime goal of helping as many people as possible was finally in reach.  After more than 5 years of success growing a law firm, nearly 2 decades of achievement in regional and territory sales, and a record of entrepreneurial accomplishment in publishing, Paul seized the opportunity to use his varied experiences to help others. His track record of success, his infectious enthusiasm, his specific skillset, and his varied experiences made him a perfect fit for HTM. A former “undefeated” little league coach for his sons’ baseball teams, Paul enjoys cooking, fishing and writing. He’s a huge fan of his alma mater and enjoys watching and supporting the Ragin’ Cajuns whenever he can. He’s a father of four who lives on a small farm in tiny Sunset, LA with his beautiful wife Dawn and their horses, goats, chickens, dogs, and cats.   CONNECT WITH PAUL ANGELLE:   Website: https://lawfamilia.net/ Website: https://paulangelle.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulangelle/   CONNECT WITH STEVE FRETZIN: LinkedIn: Steve Fretzin https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevefretzin/ Twitter: @stevefretzin https://twitter.com/stevefretzin Instagram: @fretzinsteve https://www.instagram.com/fretzinsteve/ Facebook: Fretzin, Inc. https://www.facebook.com/salesresults/ Website: Fretzin.com https://fretzin.com/ Email: Steve@Fretzin.com Book: Legal Business Development Isn't Rocket Science https://www.fretzin.com/about/books/ and more! https://fretzin.com/about/books/ YouTube: Steve Fretzin https://www.youtube.com/user/SalesResultsInc Call Steve directly at 847-602-6911   Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions. https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/You're the expert.

Rick Watson: Building a Professional Network

IN THIS EPISODE, STEVE FRETZIN AND RICK WATSON DISCUSS: __ __   KEY TAKEAWAYS: __ __   —  Rick Watson Get a free audio copy of Steve’s book here: https://fretzin.com/audiobook   THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS! Lawmatics: https://www.lawmatics.com/1-month-free/ Get Staffed Up: https://getstaffedup.com/bethatlawyer/ Get Visible: https://www.getvisible.com/ https://www.getvisible.com/   EPISODE REFERENCES:  __ __   ABOUT RICK WATSON: Rick Watson is the author of “A Firm Worth Building”, which helps professional businesses scale and thrive. He identifies a common problem advice professionals all seem to share. These business owners focus more on performing their professional specialty rather than what it takes to run the business well. Many professional firms, struggle to find “good” growth. Some professionals even look to discard a percentage of their client book every few years, as a way of managing growth. Rick would say this is all backward. When you build a strong business, as the firm grows it gets easier to run, not harder. Rick’s unique experience was forged from growing a firm with only $20 in his savings to managing ½ billion dollars in his current RIA and becoming the CEO of the National Referral Network and several other businesses which has forced him to be a student of running businesses in the best possible way. Rick’s book “A Firm Worth Building” covers about 30 lessons that every business owner should know, from thinking through branding to increasing referrals through professional networks. Additionally, he has a few unique success concepts like compressing the time it takes to build client trust and why building up your staff and other professionals through a dedicated process of “edification” is so helpful. He and his partners are forward-thinkers, their motto is - "We build what should exist". Rick and his team are not afraid of complexity, hard work, or innovation. Rick’s accomplishments have opened the path to achieving his own dreams. Living with his family on a 5-acre horse ranch and wine-making operation in Loomis, CA, he still finds the time to enjoy the life that he has been able to build through embodying his own teachings. When he's not helping manage and scale businesses, Rick rides Arabian horses in 30-100 mile races.   CONNECT WITH RICK WATSON:   Website:  __ __ LinkedIn:  __ __ Facebook:  __ __ Book: A Firm Worth Building https://www.amazon.com/Firm-Worth-Building-Professional-Business/dp/B0CCXPDQLH   CONNECT WITH STEVE FRETZIN: LinkedIn: Steve Fretzin https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevefretzin/ Twitter: @stevefretzin https://twitter.com/stevefretzin Instagram: @fretzinsteve https://www.instagram.com/fretzinsteve/ Facebook: Fretzin, Inc. https://www.facebook.com/salesresults/ Website: Fretzin.com https://fretzin.com/ Email: Steve@Fretzin.com Book: Legal Business Development Isn't Rocket Science https://www.fretzin.com/about/books/ and more! https://fretzin.com/about/books/ YouTube: Steve Fretzin https://www.youtube.com/user/SalesResultsInc Call Steve directly at 847-602-6911   Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions. https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/You're the expert.
