Are you working with clients you like?

Are you working with clients you like?

By Nina Kaufman, Esq.

Do you like your clients? Do they respect the advice they give you? Does it feel like a collaborative relationship when you’re working together? If not, that’s a sign you need to shore up your intake process. (Do you have one?) During challenging times, it’s tempting to take any client that has a pulse and the promise of a bank account. Whether a prospect is a good fit means more than just is this work in your wheelhouse? In this short video, I share the high points of a conversation with my client that helped her realize she wasn’t screening prospects carefully enough for a good fit: “Good fit” includes things like: Have they worked with providers like you before? Can they pay you? What’s their deadline? If you’d like to work with someone who can give you 1-on-1 guidance on developing your intake process, let’s set up a call at KaufmanBusinessLaw.com. Are you our ideal client – Seasoned business owner? Innovative thinker? Based in New York? We want to hear from you. Contact Us

Flying solo doesn’t have to mean going it alone.

I’m Nina Kaufman.

I know first-hand that running a knowledge-based service business has unique challenges. It’s so much easier when you have an advocate in your corner. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked with thousands of New York business professionals who want a legal advisor to guide and support them as they navigate the business world.

With wide-ranging experience as a business attorney, strategist, and media authority, I bring the added power of a business lens to the legal issues my clients are facing.

And because I’ve been a business owner myself, I’ve lived through the soaring highs and devastating lows – like when my first law firm failed. So I understand what’s involved to serve great clients, detect business risks early and build a true legacy.

I can’t get those 12 years back. That’s why I have made it my mission to ensure that business professionals like you can become wise and discerning leaders, build a solid business, and live your best life.
