“Profit cannot be treated as an event. It must be treated as a habit, but that is not how most business owners approach the profitability of their business.” – RJon Robins
If you’ve been waiting for your next client or that one big case to swoop in and save your law firm’s profitability, this episode is your wake-up call. RJon drops some serious truth bombs about why chasing the next big thing is actually sabotaging your success.
To understand why profit cannot be an event, RJon breaks down the Primacy Effect (page 186-187) and how it is secretly blocking your law firm’s profitability. Here’s the kicker: you naturally pay attention to what comes first and ignore everything else. So when you put profit last (after payroll, bills, everything else), your brain treats profit as an afterthought. The solution? Flip the script entirely! Decide what you want to take out first before anyone else gets their hands on it, and force your business to get creative with what’s left over.
In a clip from a guest appearance on The Agile Attorney podcast hosted by John Grant, RJon delivers a vivid warning to law firm owners who have a hard copy version of the Profit First for Lawyers book. “You wouldn’t want your spouse or significant other to get their hands on my book if you’re not already doing Profit First, ’cause they’re gonna beat you with it until you do.”
Karli was in the podcast recording session with RJon and found the mental image of a law firm owner being hit with the Profit First for Lawyers book by their spouse for not taking their profit first humorous, until she realized she was guilty of the same offense. This “tea time” moment was when she knew there was no excuse for her or anyone not to take their profit first. This was one of the many reasons why she opened up her own personal profit account.
The Profit Leak Assessment is a practical, on-demand course to help law firm owners find thousands of dollars in potential profit leaks. Karli teamed up with Evelyn Aucoin, Financial Literacy and Strategy Expert with How To Manage A Small Law Firm to create this resource for law firm owners.
