Too many legal tech vendors are still leading with features, buzzwords, and AI hype. The problem? Law firms don’t buy technology specs—they buy solutions that solve real pain points and impact the bottom line.

In this episode of The Marketing Phoenix Podcast, host Melissa “Rogo” Rogozinski talks with Steven Lerner, senior reporter at Law360 Pulse, about how vendors can stop overselling technology and start connecting with buyers by focusing on outcomes. They cover everything from product strategy and market research to targeted marketing, sales funnel optimization, and customer experience—offering a practical roadmap to strengthen B2B sales and drive lasting revenue growth.

• Why consolidation impacts innovation, customer service, and pricing—and how startups can fill the gaps with stronger customer acquisition strategies
