In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Steve Haddadin discuss: The importance of cultivating an entrepreneurial mindset in professional growth Building and maintaining strong client relationships through communication and transparency Managing and mitigating risk while pursuing opportunities Leveraging marketing tools and personal branding for visibility and credibility Key Takeaways: Being proactive is essential because waiting for the “perfect time” to act often delays progress and causes missed opportunities, while those who start early gain momentum and reach their goals faster. Creating and maintaining accessible online profiles across LinkedIn and legal directories allows professionals to be easily found, build credibility, and attract clients who would otherwise never discover them. Providing excellent client care requires consistently clear communication, setting realistic expectations, and educating clients so that they not only feel informed during the process but also appreciate the value of your work. Instead of trying to eliminate risk, professionals should identify potential risks, apply mitigation strategies, and continuously monitor and refine their approach so they can confidently move forward rather than remain stuck.
