Over the past 18 years, Steve has devoted his career to helping lawyers master the art of business development to achieve their business goals and the peace of mind that comes with developing a successful law practice.

In their discussion about how Steve is able to be such a prolific content creator, Steve and Wayne talk about, among other things: - The relationship between marketing and business development; - The process Steve followed for writing his four books, including his first book, a parable; - The decision whether to self-publish a book versus enlist a publisher; - What your content should do instead of giving the 20,000-foot view of a topic; - Why podcasting is especially effective for lawyers and other professional services providers; - What being a prolific content creator has meant to Steve's business; - The process for determining which marketing and business development tactics a lawyer should pursue; and - Trends Steve's seeing in marketing and business development for lawyers.
