✅ 82% of business decision-makers say they are more likely to work with a provider they have a trusted relationship with. (LinkedIn B2B Report)
✅ 80% of B2B sales happen after at least five follow-ups (Marketing Donut), but most professionals stop reaching out after one or two attempts.
✅ It costs 5-7x more to acquire a new client than to retain an existing one. (Harvard Business Review)
