Partners' meeting

Clicks and rankings, but no signed cases

At the partners' meeting, the agency's report shows clicks, impressions and rankings, and the intake spreadsheet shows consultations. Neither one says what a signed case from Google cost. With RetainerBooked, each caller arrives tagged with the ad, page, search or referring attorney behind them. Once your intake team marks a card Signed, the report sets each campaign's spend against it: October, 9 signed cases, 4 from Google search at $410 each.

One monthly bill

The vendors you pay now, on one bill

A website company, an ad agency, a phone system, a scheduler, a texting tool, a review service: most firms pay four to seven. Each tab is one of them.

After six, the firm still answers

Three people reach your firm tonight. You return none of their calls.

Closed since six· Three callers handled by morning

  • Tuesday· 6:52 p.m.

    The founding partner's phone showing a 6:52 p.m. call the AI receptionist took after closing, with the caller's answers and Thursday's 2:00 consultation booked.

    The after-hours call

    Your AI receptionist takes it in the firm's name, explains that it's an AI, asks your screening questions and books Thursday's 2:00 consultation.

  • Tuesday· 9:15 p.m. form

    A text from the firm's number offering three consultation times seconds after a web form, and the booking that followed.

    A web form, answered

    Your firm's number texts back three consultation times before the person has closed the tab. No reply means follow-up texts all week.

  • Wednesday· 8:30 a.m.

    The RetainerBooked app on a phone at 8:30 a.m. with the overnight callers: one waiting on a callback, a consultation booked from a 9:15 p.m. form and one the AI receptionist booked at 6:52 p.m.

    The morning list

    Your intake specialist opens the board to each overnight caller, the AI receptionist's notes, the consultations already booked and the one person still waiting on a callback.

Setup

Your part in the setup

Building is our job. Your share is a kickoff call, your forms and a few sign-offs.

  1. The first call

    We go over your practice areas, where inquiries come from now, who takes which calls and what each vendor bills you.

    Your partone call with us

  2. We build, you review

    Website pages, a tracking number per ad, the intake board, questionnaires, a retainer clients sign on their phones and the AI receptionist's screening questions.

    Your partforward the forms and retainer you use

  3. Ads billed to your firm's card

    Where your firm already has Google or Meta ad accounts, we work inside them; where it doesn't, we open them in the firm's name with its own card for clicks. Your old inquiry spreadsheet comes over, and we train your intake team.

    Your parttwo sign-offs, site and script

  4. Your first callers come through

    On day 14 your site and phones start taking callers, with forms and the AI receptionist. A ported number and Google Screened can take longer, on their own clocks.

Bring this month's invoices from your website company, ad agency, phone system and texting tool. On the demo we add them up and set that total beside the single plan your firm would be on.

Owner questions

Before you make the switch

Try contract, agency or Clio, or type any word you'd ask.

8 questions

Is the monthly price really flat?

Headcount alone sets it: $97 for a solo, $197 for a firm of up to five, $297 up to ten. Neither calls nor signed cases add to the bill.

Am I locked into a contract?

No. Each month stands alone, and an email before the next charge ends it.

What's my part in setup?

A kickoff call, your forms and retainer sent over, and your sign-off on the website and the AI receptionist's questions. The building, software setup, import of old inquiries and intake training are ours. Then one call a month.

Whose name is on the ad accounts?

Yes. Your firm holds the Google and Meta accounts, and both charge your firm's card for clicks directly.

Which of my marketing actually signs cases?

Each new caller carries a tag for whatever sent them: an ad, a page or a referring attorney. Your monthly report then counts signed cases and their cost by source.

What about the agency I pay now?

Bring its last invoice and report to the demo; we'll set ours beside them.

Will it replace my assistant?

No. It picks up only when your assistant is busy or gone.

Does Clio stay?

Yes. Matters, billing and trust accounting stay there.
