"Another effective way to increase prestige is to highlight high-profile clients in a manner that promotes both the firm and client, said Jill Huse, a business consultant to professional service firms at Society 54.

That could mean promoting clients through the firm's website or blogs, through co-sponsorship opportunities, or in joint advertising, she said.

'This provides immediate credibility to the business community when you can associate your firm with other similar well-known businesses,' Huse said.

As an example, Huse pointed to a law firm that did a client appreciation campaign several years ago in which it interviewed several of their top clients, highlighting their business and industry in a published profile, with different clients profiled each year. In fact, the firm even commissioned a caricature artist from the New York Post to do a visual of each client with a narrative about the company and their keys to success.

'They were successful by ingratiating their influence with their client by promoting their business, associating their firm with well-known clients in the business community within different industry sectors, and solidifying their current client relationships that had a direct positive impact on revenue for the firm,' she said."
