Law Firm Origination and Cross-Selling Credits: A Guide to Your Firm’s Future Success 
Trust us, it's not just you, many law firms struggle with cross-selling different practice areas to existing clients.
How many times have you heard these excuses:
- "There are no opportunities with this client outside of my practice area."
- "We don’t handle that type of law."
- "I don't think Jim would be a good personality fit with ACME Co.”
In fact, the average client has 4 major practice needs and 5 minor, but measurable, needs. Yet, on average a primary provider delivers only 1.8 practices to a single client—meaning most law firms deliver one, and a handful service 2 practice areas.
So, what are law firms to do when so many cross-selling initiatives fail, or fall on deaf ears? Two words…origination credit.
