Outside the Box: A Bigfoot Costume and a $50 Million Bet

July 29, 2026

Angel Reyes runs a Texas PI firm spending $50 million a year on marketing. All of it digital, none of it billboards, none of it legacy media. He killed that spend back in 2018 and never looked back. His take: brand loyalty in personal injury is mostly a myth. Clients aren’t shopping for a name they trust, they’re picking whoever calls them back first.

Elliot Johnson runs that $50 million budget day to day, and his job is making sure the data underneath it can actually be trusted, with clean integrations, reliable reporting, and no leaks. He and Angel walk through cost per kept case versus cost per acquired case, why last-click attribution is a comfortable lie, and what happens when you try to model a customer journey that’s more emotion than math.

Plus, two weeks out from the Summit: a thank-you to LHLM Summit video partner Bluphyre Media, whose “Bigfoot Lawyer” campaign is proof that thinking outside the box doesn’t have to mean spending outside your means. Sometimes it just means putting a lawyer in a Sasquatch costume.
