Score Your EngagementsInterAction IQ can help your team identify which clients present the greatest flight risk by analyzing their level of engagement within the InterAction CRM platform. The IQ feature works by giving the relationship a score that quantifies and measures the level of engagement based on an attorney’s frequency of contact with the client. In addition, IQ can help your team identify relationships and then identify gaps in who the firm knows and help discover engagements that may otherwise be unknown, due to contacts not entered in the firm’s CRM database or an attorney’s contact collection. This ensures important engagements are not missed.

Track Effectiveness of Law Firm Marketing EffortsIQ also looks at law firm activities by taking into account any marketing or one-on-one marketing communications aimed at clients which are logged into the system, such as clicks on a link from a marketing communication or website, which IQ also takes into consideration to determine a client or prospects’ level of engagement. Additionally, if the firm uses InterAction for Microsoft Office (IMO) and is auto logging meetings for certain clients or prospects, those too will be calculated in the score.

Zero in on Key Clients Use IQ to limit the scope of clients to just those who are highly managed or top clients for the firm.

@lexisnexis@lexisnexis @lexisnexis

Begin a DialogueQuickly and easily identify which clients pose the greatest threat of leaving the firm simply by looking at which clients have had the least amount of engagement with partners in the firm using InterAction IQ. Using IQ your team can create automated searches to better understand engagements within the firm either by looking at engagements with number of people at the company or by looking at number of engagements within people at the firm. This helps your team to better assess if the firm is meeting or increasing its “target levels.” IQ also tracks and scores changes, so members of your team can see where engagement is increasing or decreasing. This enables your team to identify a potential risk and keep track of whether the firm’s engagement levels are being met. This data can also be used to start an important dialogue with law firm leaders about how to immediately re-engage any potentially vulnerable clients.

Prioritize and Expose Blind Spots Use IQ’s proprietary algorithm to help your team prioritize relationships based on strength and expose blind spots, while managing a high volume of contacts more efficiently.

@lexisnexis@lexisnexis @lexisnexis

Prepare for Partner Attrition Minimize your firm’s exposure to risk prior to a partner leaving the firm using InterAction IQ to determine which partners have the strongest engagements with clients who may be directly impacted by the partner’s departure. Use this information to determine which remaining partners in the firm have solid relationships with these clients, so they can be immediately briefed with a plan on how to expand or strengthen the relationship.

Stay Connected to ClientsInterAction IQ enables you to stay connected to your attorneys’ most valuable clients by enabling users of IQ, such as members of your BD marketing team, to know immediately when a client’s title status has changed by automatically cleaning and updating data using the freshest data available via the signature capture feature. This gives your marketing team insight if and when a client has been promoted, has moved into a new role at a different company, or has experienced a name change, so your attorneys can stay in touch or reach out in a more personalized way.

Better Assess Client CommunicationIQ can help your team assess whether the firm is over or under communicating with clients and indicate where the firm is getting engagement back from this communication by capturing, counting and scoring the number of engagements with a client so your team can make recommendations or suggest ways to re-engage with clients, as needed.

Identify Your Top 5 Weekly Prospects Through IQ your team can identify previously unknown relationships and can expose multiple practice groups that are engaged with clients to allow for better cross-selling or joint selling opportunities. In addition, your team can track how engagement for new BD opportunities have increased over time and, if engagement is high enough to trigger a more planned effort. IQ can also help the firm understand who knows whom within the firm and the strength of their engagements which can identify potential “marriages” across practice groups and create join marketing opportunities to expand services. This intelligence can help your BD marketing team with strategic initiatives such as developing a list of the “top five” clients or prospects that should be on the radar for the week.

According to Mark Herrmann Chief Counsel of Lit igation and Global Chief Compliance Officer at Aon, in an Above the Law art ic le t it led: Business Development 5 Things I Have Seen Work:

“Number one, and light-years ahead of everything else: Impress your existing clients. Those clients will then give you more business,” said Mr. Herrmann. “I can’t give you percentages, but that formula — existing clients giving you more business — surely accounts for the vast majority of business I have either generated personally or seen generated by others over the course of three decades. It’s the magic elixir.”

Discover New ConnectionsEvery attorney that steps into a lateral role at a new law firm brings with them a wealth of important previous connections and relationships. As soon as lateral hire emails a previous contact and there is a response, IQ is able to discover the contact, as long as a signature is included in the email. This alleviates the attorney/lateral hire from having to manually enter old contacts and helps your law firm marketing and leadership team see how the attorney’s on-boarding/BD plans are progressing. In addition, IQ can help your team tap into new connections by instantly uncovering previously unrecognized contacts via the signature capture feature and automatically adding them to your BD contact database. This also enables you to make appropriate determinations about where to make introductions.

Enhance Who-Knows-WhomIQ enhances your team’s who-knows-whom capabilities by automatically adding new relationships to your InterAction database based on your configuration settings.

Ensure New Contacts Aren’t Missed IQ creates a file of possible new contacts who are not in your InterAction database, for your review, so you can ensure no new contacts are missed, especially during the lateral on-boarding process. This helps the firm discover where the lateral has unique relationships and where there is overlap with the firm’s existing contacts. Your team can then help the lateral put the best plan in place to start making the most of those relationships by either introducing their contacts to others services within the firm or expanding the existing services being provided in collaboration with partners who also have relationships with clients where the lateral’s expertise in not already being provided by the firm.

Stop manually checking and updating contact information. This is time-consuming and an inefficient use of an administrative assistant’s or professional’s time.

Dramatically reduce the time attorneys spend entering data change requestsTime is money, especially when your attorneys are being bogged down manually updating data change requests. InterAction IQ alleviates this burden, so your attorneys can focus on more pressing client and BD work, by automatically capturing the freshest contact data available using IQ’s Email Signature Capture feature.

What is “passive” data capture? Every time an attorney receives an email from a client or a prospect, IQ automatically mines the firm’s Exchange Server using passive data collection. By using email signatures from your attorneys’ inboxes IQ compares them to the most recent contact data available in InterAction. With InterAction’s data change management existing functionality, provided a contact exists in your attorney’s contact collection, your attorneys won’t need to lift a finger, and those changes are immediately passed onto the attorney which can either be reviewed or automatically made.

Reduce Data Stewardship Responsibilities In addition, using IQ’s signature capture feature can alleviate data stewardship responsibilities, enabling your attorneys and BD team to focusing on more pressing billable and BD work, by automatically updating contact information. In addition, whoever is researching a particular contact can see who is making the recommended change eliminating the extra step to research who is suggesting the change and can see the actual signature taken from the email so they can confirm the accuracy of the data, if needed.

Attorneys have a duty to keep private information private. Whether attorneys are working on highly confidential M&A deals or want to keep personal emails private, IQ can help attorneys protect their clients’ privacy by allowing them to set privacy controls via configurable settings. For some attorneys, this means keeping their clients’ contact information private from the rest of the firm. IQ can help give your marketing team what it needs, while respecting an attorneys desire to keep certain portions of their client’s contact information private.

Set Privacy Controls to Ensure Privileged Information Stays That Way

Captures Only Signature BlocksIQ only looks at the signature blocks and not the contents of the email, ensuring the utmost privacy for clients.

Keep Private Information PrivateIQ will not score or share contact information marked “private” by an attorney in both Outlook and InterAction and only harvests email signature block lines, not email content, and that data collection is governed by the attorney’s setting configurations for privacy.

Ensure Personal Email is PrivateIQ excludes private contact information based on setting configurations, essentially ignoring personal emails (e.g., Gmail, Hotmail) and excluding individuals or domains from identifying relationships.

Prioritize and Streamline When you have thousands of contacts coming over in your system, it’s important to choose priorities and allocate them using InterAction’s DCM configurable rules.

Eliminate Repeat Tickets With IQ, repeat tickets do not get created in IA DCM every time the same new contact is discovered in multiple inboxes, this eliminates the potential for additional, unwarranted tickets.
