Did You Know? …
• Only 30% of organizations still engage in cold calling.
• 57% of purchase decisions are completed before a supplier is contacted.
• Only 55% of B2B Marketers have programs dedicated to client retention.

Forget the Funnel.
• The right audience is more valuable than a large one.
• Buying decisions are only the beginning of the conversation.
• There’s no room for loyalty in the funnel.
• Buying decisions aren’t only driven by the messages you deliver to clients. They’re also driven by what clients say about you and to each other.
