Wanting something fresh

When Chris approached Array, he had several stellar reviews from his clients and numerous Client Choice Awards indicating his dedication to his clients and his overall ability to meet their needs. However, with his current website, this wasn’t enough to draw in new clients. So, he requested help from Array Digital in 2022, looking for a freshened-up website through a redesign.

Creating a plan

To help Chris attract new clients, Array Digital’s first step was establishing the law firm’s web support. That included a new law firm website design. We also began content marketing services, social media marketing, premium link-building services, and Google PPC ads.

Regarding content marketing, Chris elected to use our agency’s monthly content package and a content sprint to help establish crucial web pages early on. This would allow his firm’s website to start ranking sooner.

One of the core services Chris Schmiedeke’s law firm offers is a simpler, more streamlined divorce process designed to be easier to understand. Array Digital feels the same way about SEO marketing. We took the time to outline the options available and the SEO strategy we felt would be ideal for him. We educated him on what we do and how he can evaluate the successes for himself.

To help him communicate more effectively with his clients, Chris creates videos that simplify the legal language around family law topics to make the information more accessible. This also helps to support his SEO strategy. This original content is invaluable for promoting a law firm’s website and providing clients with highly useful information, aiding in building his brand and his ability to remain a thought leader.

The success Chris sees is due to his willingness and ability to collaborate with his digital marketing agency. This directly helps with building new clients.
