When starting a new business there are a lot of decisions to make that will shape the course of the business well into the future. And starting a law firm is no different. All of the same choices remain. A key choice for you moving forward will be the type of cell phone you’ll use. Keep reading to see what I think.
I don’t want to get too far, though, without letting you know who I am. I’ll be 30 years old this. My law firm has been up and running for about 8 months, and before I started my law firm I was an associate attorney at a couple of small law firms and worked for the government for a bit. I’m right on the line between generation X and generation Y. I love new technology and am always excited to try it out.
The iPhone is great for starting a law firm for several reasons. First, it can instantly sync up your email and calendar no matter what your email provider is. I use Gmail and it took me about 30 seconds to set up my account on my iPhone. Same with my calendar. Now the both sync seamlessly with my computer. It allows me to not have to worry about dragging a paper calendar with me wherever I go.
Second, the iPhone’s internet experience is second to none. They’ve set it up so your internet experience is identical to what you would be doing at home or at the office. It makes finding things you need quickly. It also makes killing time waiting for your case to be called easy.
The last reason I like the iPhone over others is the coolness factor. It’s hard not to admit that the iPhone, as far as phones go, is a pretty cool little gadget. You can check your email, play games, update your Facebook status, listen to your music, read the New York Times, tweet, and find the nearest Starbucks. This is what really drives it above the rest.
If you are thinking about how to start a law firm and are considering phone options, think of the iPhone. You won’t be disappointed. I haven’t been. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
