Business
In this episode, Will Palmer, Founder at Growth Lab, breaks down how his agency uses CallRail data and language models to surface attribution gaps that law firms never knew existed, and how that intelligence turned a flight-risk client into one who doubled their ad spend.
He explains the three-legged marketing system he uses for every law firm: a converting website, targeted traffic, and airtight lead management.
Will also shares how Growth Lab is building MCP servers and internal automations to drive better margins and lower client churn, why traditional SEO KPIs like keyword rankings no longer tell the full story, and how he publishes quarterly AI legal search reports to stay ahead of the market for his clients and team.
Beyond strategy, Will talks openly about leading a fully remote team, why they insist on work-life balance as a performance strategy, and what his warning label as a founder would say.
