April 2025 brought us critical shifts in consulting client acquisition that demand immediate attention.
Traditional referrals have dropped 15% while digital search has surged 11%, signaling an urgent need to revamp your online presence.
With 90% of companies lacking clear cross-border procurement strategies, this creates both vulnerability and opportunity.
