Case studies – what better way to substantiate a track record and success. They’re roundly recognised as playing an influential role in the marketing and selling process.

So why are they SO hard to get mobilised and over the line? Aligning the motivations and timing of sellers, relationship owners, end-customers and approvers is a complex task that takes skill and perseverance.
