In enterprise sales, buying groups now average 10 to 11 stakeholders, stretching to 15 or more in global deals*, and decision cycles can last up to 16 months. Over that time, there are countless touchpoints—each of which has the potential to make or break a deal. And once the deal is done, it doesn’t stop there. Every interaction with a new business partner can strengthen or sabotage the relationship.

In a time when AI is flooding inboxes and online feeds, authentic connections are the only ways to make people believe in your business and to build partnerships that last.
