If you wish to scale and grow you must delegate and let go of certain tasks. \nAssign a monetary figure to everything you do. If it is under your pay grade, delegate it out. Assign a responsibility title to each to do and see what role you need to hire for first. \nLearn to ask for help. You do not and cannot know everything. You need other people to grow. \n\n\n\n\"The piece that really helped me the most at the beginning, was just understanding that I had to fill in the gaps of figuring out what I didn't know. Because I knew there was a lot that I didn't know. So it was the not letting my ego or other things get in the way of seeking out that information from other people, and looking for it in mentors and coaches.\" —  Lewis Landerholm\n\n\n\nThank you to our Sponsors!\n\nLegalEase Marketing: https://legaleasemarketing.com/\n\nMoneypenny: https://www.moneypenny.com/us/\n\nPractice Panther: https://www.practicepanther.com/\n\n\n\nEpisode References: \n\nBe That Lawyer Episode 263 with Marco Brown: https://www.fretzin.com/podcast/episodes/marco-brown-growing-your-firm-without-spending-a-dime/\nBook: Fans First by Jesse Cole - https://www.amazon.com/Fans-First-Change-Unforgettable-Experience/dp/154452921X\n\n\n\nAbout Lewis Landerholm: Lewis Landerholm is the Founding Partner of Pacific Cascade Legal, a law firm that represents family law, bankruptcy, and personal injury clients throughout the Pacific Northwest.
