Don’t Underestimate the Marketing Power of Craigslist
Overview
Victoria Ring from 713training.com shares insights on how virtual bankruptcy assistants can effectively market their services to attorneys across the nation using Craigslist. This article explores her successful experience and offers practical tips for leveraging this platform.
Discovering Craigslist’s Potential
I was genuinely surprised by the powerful marketing capabilities of Craigslist. Under the LEGAL JOBS category in Columbus, Ohio, I posted an ad seeking partnerships with bankruptcy attorneys. Here’s what I wrote:
Title:
Seeking Bankruptcy AttorneysPosting:
As a Certified Paralegal and Bankruptcy Specialist with 31 years of industry experience, I am eager to collaborate with one or more bankruptcy attorneys focusing on debtor-side cases. I have a proven track record of building successful bankruptcy practices for out-of-state attorneys and wish to replicate this success locally.Contact me, Victoria Ring, at 614-875-4496.
Compensation:
Over $500 per hourWithin 24 hours of posting this free ad, I received calls from several attorneys. Although initial responses didn’t lead to immediate results, persistence proved key.
A Game-Changing Opportunity
A week later, an enthusiastic attorney contacted me, urging an immediate meeting. I quickly prepared and met him, clad in casual wear due to the urgency of his request.
Upon arrival, I met not only this young attorney but also a seasoned attorney with 25 years in debtor bankruptcy. He was overwhelmed by referrals and keen to mentor the young attorney, anticipating a boom in bankruptcy cases. This turned out to be an incredible opportunity.
Insights for Virtual Assistants
Foreclosures and rising gas prices are driving more people to relocate, often resulting in bankruptcy. With increased demand for bankruptcy filings expected in summer 2008, possessing the skills to prepare Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 petitions is extremely valuable.
Achieving Success
I secured a role with the young attorney, conducting client interviews and preparing a significant volume of petitions, with earnings that could reach $15,000 a month. This allowed me to offer employment to others in need.
Both attorneys appreciated my skills and requested exclusivity. I agreed as long as my workload and income were maintained, while continuing to assist other attorneys with setting up their practices.
Your Path to Success
Consider this: How many people can walk into an attorney’s office and secure:
1. A job with a $180,000 minimum annual salary
2. A personal office for client meetings
3. The flexibility to work remotely
4. The freedom to set their terms
You can achieve similar success. It may require practice and perseverance, but skills in preparing Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 petitions are highly sought after.
