The TLDR ↓

How might we help law firms manage their prospect/client network efficiently?

Opportunity

Attorneys have no time for networking.
They bill in 6 minute increments.

Attorneys have to do their legal work and also help the firm grow by meeting people, finding new clients, and keeping in touch with them.

CRM tools are designed for sales teams, not for managing client relationships in law firms.
