I attended Avvo’s Lawyernomics 2013. So, I thought I’d share some of my thoughts about the conference here. You should know that I contribute to the Lawyernomics Blog and that Avvo gave me a free ticket to the conference. You should also know that from time to time, Avvo refers lawyers interested in web marketing my way. Does that mean that my opinion on their conference is bought? Ha, hardly. But I leave it to you to assess the credibility of my review.

On Saturday morning, while browsing the fire hose, I had the good fortune of stumbling across this:
I’m practicing random acts of internet kindness,helped someone I didn’t even know on a hangout. Anyone got a question?

To which I responded:
@wilreynolds have you written an operations manual for @seerinteractive? Would you be willing to share it (or parts of it)?
— Gyi Tsakalakis (@gyitsakalakis) April 20, 2013
Which, after some more tweeting, ultimately led to a Google Hangout with Wil.
I had some operations questions and wondered how Wil was dealing with these issues at Seer. The hangout lasted only maybe 20 minutes. But in that time, I got a fresh perspective from another business owner who has faced similar challenges. And that was priceless.
Wil helped validate some conclusions that I had already drawn.
He gave me at least two new concrete ideas that I hadn’t thought of before.
It also inspired me to pay-it-forward.
That’s being helpful. That’s #RCS. That’s eating your own dog food.
So, that’s it. Just wanted to say thanks.
