Jared breaks down how managing partners must channel their experience to draft bespoke standard operating procedures (SOPs) tailored to their specific firm culture and client intake before locking them into legal management software.\nIn the guest interview, Jared sits down with Russell Matson, former criminal defense attorney turned marketing and local SEO consultant. Russell discusses how artificial intelligence platforms like Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini are reshaping online visibility for lawyers. He shares strategies for criminal defense practice, including hyper-specific niche targeting (like old warrants and leaving the scene of an accident), collecting authentic Google reviews, and setting up simple, voice-driven AI stacks for maximum efficiency. Russell also reflects on his shift from courtroom litigation to entrepreneurship, poker, and traveling New England. \nThe episode concludes in the Counter Program with a look into Russell’s past as a fire-eating punk band frontman (\"High Stepping Seafood\"), followed by \"The Norm Macdonald Hour\"—a trivia gauntlet covering the late comedian’s iconic career.\nLearn more about Russell.\nCheck out our latest Spotify Playlist.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/117aOJGTaxGWZGZL7jkeVBEL8Dj25G3qHx-H5oBUhzo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS84NjE0/N2MxMDkwOTBiM2Zm/MTExYjk4MWFhNjIy/OTkzZi5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
