Many law firm owners evaluate their businesses based on how much profit they take home every quarter or every year. What every entrepreneur should understand, though, is that revenue drives profit–the more revenue you bring in, the more you’ll have to invest in your business growth, and the higher the potential profit over time.It can feel counterintuitive to view hiring, training and setting up systems and other “expenses” as an investment in your business, but activities like these are the key to increasing your long-term profitability.In today’s episode of Wealthy Woman Lawyer®, Davina breaks down the math so you can understand how to increase your revenue. She also explains why a lower profit percentage isn’t necessarily a bad thing and shares her thoughts on why focusing on revenue–especially in the early stages of your business–is a good thing.Subscribe and ReviewWe’d appreciate you subscribing to this podcast and leaving an Apple Podcasts review.

For any entrepreneur, managing cash flow can be cyclical. It’s especially common for attorneys because some operate on contingency, and others fall into a rhythm of marketing to create a lot of work, and then doing the work and not leaving time for marketing which leads to no new work. It creates a feast-or-famine cycle; if they aren’t careful, they will end up cash poor during the slow months.In today’s episode of Wealthy Woman Lawyer®, Davina shares seven steps to improve your cash flow when money is tight. These actions are meant to help you attract more cash now and help you set up a system to avoid falling into the feast-or-famine trap again.Subscribe and ReviewWe’d appreciate you subscribing to this podcast and leaving an Apple Podcasts review.
