The Daily Business Review recently published an article by INGAGE’s President and Founder, Katherine Doble, exploring how artificial intelligence is transforming the way clients search for legal services.

In the piece, Katherine breaks down why law firms must rethink traditional search engine optimization (SEO) and begin preparing for generative engine optimization (GEO) - the process of structuring content so AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews can easily find, interpret, and cite it.

The article highlights a few key takeaways for attorneys:

• AI Search is Growing Fast
• Visibility Requires New Tactics
• PR Plays a Bigger Role than Ever
• Balance is Key
• Human Connection Still Matters

For a deeper look at Katherine’s takeaways on the shift from SEO to GEO in the age of AI search, read the full article online at Daily Business Review.

Florida Bar Convention Highlights from Our Partner Sections

At this year’s Florida Bar Convention, we were proud to support and celebrate several of the Bar sections with which we collaborate year-round. From ushering in new leadership to promoting initiatives through strategic digital content, we witnessed firsthand how each section is evolving to better serve its members and the broader legal community.

In the world of personal injury law, there's a long-standing stereotype: the billboard lawyer. Every time someone drives down the highway, they’re greeted by oversized ads and bus wraps featuring lawyers promoting car accident help, slip-and-fall claims, and everything in between. While this traditional marketing method offers visibility, it’s also impersonal and forgettable.

 In a crowded market, how do personal injury firms truly stand out and take their practice to the next level? It all lies in strategic public relations. Public relations is the strategic practice of managing how a firm is perceived by the public through earned media, brand storytelling, and relationship-building with the press and community.

The Limitations of Billboards and Paid Ads

Billboards and paid placements certainly have their place in a marketing mix, but they don’t build lasting credibility. Consumers often forget faces, phone numbers, and taglines as soon as they pass the next exit. Plus, these ads d...

For decades, word-of-mouth referrals have been the lifeblood of many Tampa law firms. A trusted client recommendation has long been a golden ticket for securing new business. But in 2025, relying solely on reputation whispers isn’t enough. In an age of Google searches, digital-first impressions, and media-driven trust, law firms must take a more proactive approach to public relations (PR) to remain relevant and competitive.

The Digital Shift in Legal Visibility

Think about how most people find a lawyer today. It starts with a problem - and a search engine. Prospective clients are no longer waiting for a cousin’s coworker’s recommendation. They’re typing "business attorney Tampa" into Google. They’re skimming reviews, checking social media, and evaluating credibility based on what appears in the first five seconds of online exposure.

This digital behavior means that if your law firm doesn’t have a clear, consistent, and compelling presence online, you risk being invisible. That’s whe...

When it comes to the international disputes arena, the legal landscape is undergoing rapid and consequential change. Treaties are unraveling overnight, new tariffs are emerging almost overnight, and sanctions are expanding in response to rising geopolitical tensions. Just as swiftly as the global order shifts, attorneys in the field should be just as strategic in how they cultivate visibility and public authority. Journalists turn to sources they trust, trust that was built through timely engagement and strong relationships, both with the media and the public. That’s where media relations comes in.

A smart public relations strategy combines earned media with organic reach across platforms like LinkedIn, where attorneys can amplify their insights and stay visible between news cycles. A strong integrated marketing partner helps make that happen, turning legal expertise into sustained influence.

Whether you are a law firm, non-profit organization, or individual lawyer, the ability to tell compelling stories can transform the way you engage with clients and prospective clients. But why is storytelling so effective in marketing, and how can your organization use it to drive results?

In this blog, we’ll explore the key components of storytelling in marketing and how it can help you build stronger relationships with your audience.

What is Storytelling in Marketing?

Storytelling in marketing refers to the practice of using a narrative to communicate a message, brand value, or concept in a way that resonates emotionally with an audience. Rather than focusing on dry facts or technical information, storytelling brings your brand’s message to life.

Let’s face it: a lot of assumptions about agencies are outdated, and some are just plain wrong. From the notion that only huge brands need them to the idea that all they do is make social media pretty, these myths can make it hard to see the real value agencies bring to the table. So, let’s cut through the noise and tackle these common misconceptions. Who knows, by the end, you might just see marketing agencies in a whole new light!

Myth 1: "Marketing Agencies Are Too Expensive"

Let’s start with the money myth. Yes, agencies come with a price tag but consider it an investment. Good agencies are like architects for your brand: they design and build strategies that can last for years, helping you reach customers you’d never find alone. A quality agency should be clear about where every dollar goes and why. And here’s a bonus, having a dedicated team often costs less than hiring full-time employees in each area of expertise. Plus, a great agency should know how to make each dollar count...

In today’s competitive legal market, understanding your ideal client is essential for effective marketing, client engagement, and business success. But where do you start? Defining your law firm’s ideal client avatar is the key. This detailed profile outlines who you’re serving, what problems you're solving, and how best to communicate with them.

Creating a client avatar involves a deep dive into your law firm's core services and clientele. By doing so, you can tailor your marketing messages, refine your service offerings, and, most importantly, connect with the right people in a meaningful and effective way.

What Is a Client Avatar?

A client avatar isn’t just about identifying demographic data like age or income; it goes beyond the numbers. It’s crucial to consider psychographics—your clients' motivations, challenges, and pain points. By defining this avatar, your law firm can ensure that every marketing effort—from your website to social media—directly speaks to those most likely ...

Below are some highly effective marketing habits that every lawyer should adopt, whether handling marketing in-house or working with professionals.

1. Leverage the Power of LinkedIn

LinkedIn is the premier social network for professionals, making it an invaluable tool for lawyers. A digital marketing firm can help you optimize your LinkedIn profile, ensuring it reflects your expertise with a professional headshot, compelling headline, and a summary that highlights your unique qualifications. Regularly sharing relevant content, such as articles, case studies, or legal updates, is crucial for demonstrating your knowled...
