494 How to Rapidly Build LNC Business – Ashley Moreau

Legal Nurse Podcast

Pat Iyer, host of this podcast and LNC Business owner, usually recommends that legal nurse consultants allow 3-5 years to develop a full-time practice. She is delighted to showcase an exception to that flexible rule. Ashley Moreau began her LNC Business practice in 2020, four months after the pandemic began. Prior to that time, she’d been working in a nursing home. Although she loved working there, the rigid schedules and greatly worsening conditions caused by COVID restrictions and staff shortages, accelerated her decision to become an independent LNC. She planned carefully before leaving her job, saving as much money as she could, and determining how she would publicize and promote her fledgling business. She has made great use of LinkedIn, both to make connections and to meet potential subcontractors. In addition, she has worked with local organizations in Louisiana. Ashley is a strong advocate of using subcontractors, saying that being able to provide this service to an attorney helps to encourage them to call on you again and again. She acknowledges that it’s crucial to provide quality control for subcontractors’ reports. She won’t allow any report that isn’t up to standard go out with her name on it. She believes in doing some marketing every day. That’s part of having a business. If you are a beginning LNC or considering establishing a practice, this podcast can inspire you to take the leap and make the full commitment to your business.
