I find Frank Scavo a great sounding board. He has a way of simplifying things and pushing back when things are buzzword-y. I have quoted him in several books. He has introduced me to case studies I have profiled in.

If you have a business, you need a website – without one, you will be difficult (perhaps impossible) to find, and all the hard work you put into creating your business will be lost. The potential to grow and succeed will disappear. Even if you don’t sell via your website, you should still have an online presence. However, it’s not just as simple as having a website; the website needs to be a good one, one that encapsulates what it is you do and why people should buy from you.

Recently, Amy and I hosted a conversation with Scott Wasserman, the president of Colorado’s Bell Policy Center. For those not familiar with the Bell, it is a research and advocacy organization focused on economic mobility in Colorado. In his presentation, Scott presented a range of data about four major forces affecting our economy: demographics, public investment, technology, and inequality.

Do you have the startup itch? I got my first startup itch in middle school when I made over a thousand dollars trading a popular card game called Magic Cards. Even though I never played the game, I figured out I could buy them at a bulk-discount and then sell them to my classmates.

I have been working with early stage founders on sharing their narrative and story with others. One thing that stands out more than anything else is the ability to share their story arc in the context of a metric that they own. A few examples will help bring this to life. . Back in 2013 Wunderlist (acq. by Microsoft) raised $30M for the to-do app that I still love and use today.

As the seed stage that atomized and series A rounds have become larger and more traction based, the paths to series A have changed. The baseline path to series A has tends to look something like this: Raise $0?—?$500K in angel or pre-seed funding -> Raise a $2–3M institutional seed -> Raise an A. This is the logical path that one would think is pretty “standard” for early stage companies.

So, you’re managing all that work, all those interruptions, all those texts and pesky emails. You get home at some reasonable hour, kind of tired, and needing a recharge. Sound familiar?

Having a modern and responsive website for your law firm in this time and age is extremely crucial. With a website, you not only gain more exposure but it also helps you secure more leads which can easily be turned into customers. Unfortunately, it is shocking to see many law firms still operating without a website. If that isn’t enough, many law firms who do actually have a website don’t really care how well it is made.

Two percent is the average conversion rate for ecommerce sites. While every site is different—and you’ll benefit far more by focusing on your conversion rate—that’s where most sites are today. But what if a 2% conversion rate isn’t enough to stay profitable? Right now, many ecommerce companies can still grow with an average conversion rate. This is largely thanks to the ecommerce industry growing by about 23% year over year.
