In Part III, we discussed how to keep intake and scheduling open around the clock, so every qualified caller is offered a consultation, whether they call at 2 p.m. or 9 p.m. This post covers what happens once that offer is on the table: why some qualified callers still hesitate, and how the questions your intake team asks change the answer.

What's a good intake benchmark for law firms? Smith.ai's Legal Intake Report found about 1 in 3 qualified callers connect with the firm on the call. Part two of this series shows how firms that book on the call reach nearly 2 in 3, and what to change this week.

Smith.ai's Legal Intake Report analyzed 3.2 million calls to 4,210 US law firms. Every law firm already knows that missed calls can mean lost revenue. But there's more to winning new clients. Part one of this series picks up where that lesson ends and dives into the report's most important finding.
