Every law firm wants more leads — but what if chasing them is the very thing holding you back?

In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessical Mogill tackle one of the most common (and costly) mistakes law firm owners make: pouring money into marketing before fixing the foundation of their business. A $100,000 ad campaign might sound like the fast track to growth, but if your systems, team, and client experience can’t handle the volume, you’ll end up scaling chaos instead of results.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

Why investing in marketing before your systems are ready creates more problems than profit
How to recognize whether your firm needs capacity, optimization, or true demand generation
The mindset shift that separates law firm owners who burn cash from those who build scalable, thriving practices

Before you write your next big marketing check, listen to this episode. It might just save you $100K — and set your firm on the right path for sustainable growth.
