Law Firm Challenge Agent Toolkit
Tips for Having Fun and Winning the Challenge
Use your creativity to make the Law Firm Challenge a fun competition that brings your colleagues together and strengthens your personal network of support.
- Personalize and forward email updates each month.
Keep your colleagues informed by adding personalized information your colleagues care about, such as:- Upcoming events taking place on campus
- Recruitment goals for the year
- Anything your colleagues like about USD School of Law - softball teams, favorite faculty members, etc.
- Call or stop by the offices of colleagues.
Nothing beats a personalized face-to-face conversation and a phone call is second best. This will provide you with an opportunity to strengthen your relationships with your colleagues, as well as hear objections or answer questions about the Challenge. - Have partners solicit partners & associates solicit associates.
People feel most comfortable being solicited by their peers. Having a partner and associate on board as a formal or informal representative for the Challenge can provide leverage and remove any tension that might exist because of office politics. - Hand out USD School of Law give-a-ways.
Gifts are available for distribution from the Development Office. We have items such as USD School of Law coffee mugs, pens and notepads. - Schedule a visit from USD School of Law.
Schedule a breakfast or a lunch for your colleagues to hear from the Dean of USD School of Law about the school and our upcoming activities. - Plan a happy hour celebration.
When your firm/company/organization wins, invite your USD School of Law colleagues to O'Toole's on campus for drinks. This can be a good opportunity to get to know one another and celebrate your victory.
