Yes, the wait is nearly over! We’re opening the doors to enrollment on Monday morning at 8:30 AM Eastern time (7:30 AM Central, 6:30 Mountain, and 5:30 Pacific).

Grant and I have been working feverishly behind the scenes on content, editing audio, and creating screencasts. We can’t wait to let you in so you can see it and start your “blawging” education. We can’t wait to see you in the community support forums so we can say hello and answer questions for you. And we really can’t wait to see you gaining clients and growing your practice because of what you learn in Blawging Lawyers.

250 is the Magic Number

But there’s one thing you need to know. We’re not sure how many members we’ll be able to support effectively. When you have a question in the forums, you want it answered within a day, not within a month. And we want to make sure the server can handle the load we’re going to put on it, especially since there’s video and audio files to stream and download.

So, even though we’d love to have Blawging Lawyers be available to every attorney who wants to join… we just aren’t willing to sacrifice the overall experience of the group to do that. We’ve decided to limit the number of members to 250.

We’ll make sure we can handle that many members before we open the doors again to enrollments. If it turns out that we think we can take on a few more, we will open the doors again, and if you’re on the email list (did you get your Blawging Lawyers Report? then you’re on it) you will be notified in advance.

Next Semester

If you don’t make it into Blawging Lawyers this time around, there might be openings in six months. That is how long the Blawging Lawyers program lasts. We say there might be openings because we’ll always be adding great new content and people may not be willing to let go of the camaraderie they’ve developed in the forums.

So it’s possible people may not want to leave! They may want to renew their memberships even when the six months is over. Now, in our dreams, every member will renew, but we’re sure there will be at least a few slots available in six months. But in all seriousness, we don’t know how many.

Are You Ready?

Are you ready? Grant and I are just dying to throw the switch right now, but of course there are always last minute detials to attend. You’ll just have to wait until Monday! If you have questions or just want to share your enthusiasm about Blawging Lawyers opening its doors, please leave a comment!
