Initial Challenges
Before partnering with Non-Stuffy Attorneys, Nicole’s firm struggled to generate consistent business. Key challenges included:
- Limited Lead Generation: The firm relied heavily on referrals and word-of-mouth, resulting in unpredictable client flow.
- Inefficient Marketing Efforts: Nicole’s attempts at self-managed marketing, such as email sequences and social media ads, were time-consuming and yielded minimal results due to her lack of expertise.
- Low-Profit Engagements: Contracts with legal insurance companies paid approximately 33% of standard rates, requiring high workloads for low returns.
- Time Constraints: Balancing marketing tasks with legal work fragmented Nicole’s focus, hindering both client service and business growth.
Solution: Partnering with Non-Stuffy Attorneys
In 2023, Nicole engaged Non-Stuffy Attorneys, a marketing agency dedicated to law firms, to overhaul her lead generation strategy. Unlike previous coaching models that provided guidance without execution, Non-Stuffy Attorneys implemented a comprehensive marketing plan, including targeted digital campaigns, optimized lead funnels, and strategic outreach, allowing Nicole to focus exclusively on legal services.
Measurable Results
- Lead Volume Growth: Weekly leads increased by 200–300%, from a handful to triple or quadruple the prior volume, creating a robust client pipeline.
- Revenue Surge: Within three months, the firm’s revenue tripled, with a reported 300% increase in gross income, driven by high-quality leads converting at higher rates.
- Operational Expansion: The lead surge necessitated hiring a paralegal and a marketing coordinator, increasing staff by 50%. Nicole also onboarded Smith AI, an answering service, to manage inbound calls, improving efficiency.
- Consultation Demand: The firm’s consultation calendar, previously underutilized, became fully booked, with appointments scheduled three weeks in advance, requiring a structured scheduling system to manage a 100% increase in consultation requests.
- Lead Quality: Non-Stuffy Attorneys delivered qualified leads, with a conversion rate improvement estimated at 60–70%, as clients were pre-vetted and ready to engage.
The cost per lead decreased as campaigns matured, with optimized targeting and higher conversion rates reducing acquisition costs while maintaining lead quality.

Non-Stuffy Attorneys’ marketing expertise enabled Nicole to scale her practice efficiently:
- Time Savings: By outsourcing marketing, Nicole reclaimed 20–25 hours per week previously spent on ineffective self-marketing, allowing her to focus on client work and case management.
