Registration & Networking: 12:00 PM Lunch Program: 12:30 - 2:00 PM Bring your judging hat and get ready for a bakeoff.
No time to review the competition’s website? Then come see three thought leaders offer new ideas and competitive intelligence that you can use to drive the right people to the right content.
Burkey Belser of Greenfield/Belser, Deborah McMurray of Content Pilot LLC and Elonide Semmes of Right Hat, LLC will hold a website bake-off with the aim to deliver a little innovation.
The Plan: Each “chef” will have 10 minutes to prepare a site. You will have 10 minutes to debate its merits. Then everyone votes for the new Top Chef.
Why: Burkey, Deborah and Elonide have worked with the best and the brightest on developing law firm websites and can educate you about the innovative design, development features and strategies that are getting results in the legal world and beyond.
Payoff: Whether you are a business development coordinator, a graphic design manager, or the director of client service, you are responsible for how current and future clients react to your firm’s brand. Bring a colleague and make time to hear from leaders in our industry. Connecting to your buyers in a meaningful way should not have to wait.
