    From $0 to $17MM: The Sales Training That Changed Everything

    Sales training isn't optional for family law firms—it's the difference between 15% and 30% close rates on cold leads. A lot of attorneys resist sales training because they think it's "dirty." The data shows attorneys sell constantly—to judges, clients, and peers. Our systematic approach at Sterling turned a 15% cold lead closer into a consistent 25-30% performer through daily role-play training and our Council College program. The result? You need fewer consultations to hit revenue targets, and your intake team development becomes predictable instead of hoping for natural talent. 📲 Subscribe Now: https://www.youtube.com/@karls.anthony 📝 Schedule a FREE Family Law Firm Audit: https://rocketclicks.com/schedule-a-family-law-quick-audit/  --- 📄 CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Sales Training Reality Check: Why Attorneys Resist What They Already Do  1:45 - Redefining Sales Commitment: From Dirty Word to Professional Service  5:32 - Sales Training as Growth Strategy: Daily Role-Play Systems That Work  8:38 - Council College Framework: Teaching Attorneys to Listen Before Speaking  12:10 - Lead Follow-Up Systems: The 91-Day Sequence That Converts Cold Prospects 14:37 - Mary's Method: How One Intern Became Our Best Sales Manager  18:38 - Balancing Process with Authenticity: Why Scripts Kill Conversions  23:28 - Activity vs Achievement: The Vince Lombardi Sales Truth Curious to discover your personalized roadmap to scaling a law firm, no matter where you are in the business?
