“Hotter than July.” That’s not just a kickass Stevie Wonder album, but is a phrase that could also be used to describe all of YOU! LMA is en fuego this summer. I’m inspired by all of the amazing content you are generating these days: thought leadership, webinars, social media, in-person presentations, social outings, conference planning, on and on.

And, yes, there is still time to join us! Register here: https://lma23.legalmarketing.org/

Our Legal Marketing Association #LMA23 pre-con registration is now live! Here's what our conference co-chair the dynamite Lee Watts has to say: "I am very excited about the fascinating topics and speakers for the Pre-Conference of the LMA23. As someone who has benefited greatly from attending LMA conferences over the past 20+ years, the networking, marketing education, inspiration, and moral support gleaned during these intimate sessions are priceless. The team has been very intentional and thoughtful with curating and selecting content that will equip and encourage legal marketing professionals of various backgrounds, skill sets, and law firm needs. The 'Pre-Conference Program' is a time for attendees to come with their questions and specific issues to discuss in an intimate setting and receive the support, best practices, and resources they may need." Thank you for your leadership, Lee! And our incredible gratitude to this line up of leaders co-chairing the various pre-con offerings. Stellar people with exceptional experience and hearts: Jason Klika, Alé Simmons, Susan Slifer, Julie Eichelbaum, Christine N. Harris, MBA, Bobbie Conklin, EJ Stern, MA, CPC, Cheryl Bame, Michael Blachly, M. Ashraf Lakhani, Brianna Leung, and Justin Portaz.

Morayniss, Gail Lamarche, and Arthur Uratani for their hard work rounding out our #LMA23 curriculum and offerings.

LMA’s Got SKILLS! That sure was fun tonight, and, for those who missed this Legal Marketing Association conference talent show, the performances from #legalmarketing luminaries Jason Klika, Heather Layfield McCullough, Jim Jarrell, Jim Durham, Lauren McNee, Richard Hefner, Brenda Pontiff, and Renee Branson were divine! Congrats to our winner - voted on by the audience - Jason! Highlights included glorious vocals, evocative poetry, whimsical interpretive dance routines, soothing instrumentals, grand comedy, soothing bedtime stories, a sh*t-ton of Sondheim, ridiculous costumes, and some very cute dogs. Heaven! Thank you to an incredibly patient team, including Kristy Perkins, Malaika Palmer, Christina Abes (and my fearless engineer husband John Mola) who worked through my various and sundry tech issues and general hysteria earlier in the afternoon. Such grace, calm, and talent! Thanks to our conference co-chairs Kristen Bateman and Jonathan Mattson and LMA president Jill Mason Huse for their faith in me, for their encouragement, and for allowing me to let my freak flag fly (photographic evidence follows). This is a helluva community! I am grateful to have been embraced by such kind and talented humans, and, as we noted tonight, our personal “brands” should celebrate every aspect of our personalities, talents, and interests. Thank you to HQ’s Danielle Holland , Kat Seiffert , Kristin Frankiewicz and team for their tireless support and promotion. #lma20 #lmamkt #lma20selfie - thank you, Lauren and Renèe, for the #greatestshowman screen grabs too! @lmaintl @jahuse @kristenbateman96 @kristyperkins1 @brendapontiff @resilience.bounty @jimjarrell #showtunes #skills #quarantinelife #talent #sondheim #barbrastreisand #spiderman #batman #starwars #frozen #lizaminnelliforpresident #harleyquinn #madonna #janetjackson (at Saline, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGltSXXjgGq/?igshid=o2mwlrlt3ayo
