I had the pleasure today to sit down over coffee with the founders of a content site for attorneys called Lawyerist, based in downtown Minneapolis: Sam Glover (left in the photo) and Aaron Street. I met Aaron at a recent monthly lunch meeting of Club Entrepreneur, which is run by my colleague Rick Brimacomb. 
And, today, I had the opportunity to meet Sam, whom I learned continues as a practicing attorney as well. What I find so interesting about this content site, in addition to it being founded by attorneys (whom you’d not normally think of as having a bent for publishing or content), is that it actually has a business model, with real revenues, based on a subscription offering it launched in January. It’s attracting some leading contributing writers, as well as a significant amount of traffic for such a early-stage business.
Listen in — it’s about a 20-25 minute conversation. Here’s the MP3 file:

Nice conversation Graeme! You should interview more startups…perhaps some tech investors that you know, local or elsewhere.
Thanks, I like to do these when I can. But it’s very much limited by my time constraints with client work. This one was just gonna be another coffee meeting, but I decided to pull out my recorder at the last minute, and the guys were game.
Glad you liked it. I’m a content guy, so I really enjoy seeing a startup in this space do well.
