86% of the people we place are still in seat after 90 days. I'd rather give you

86% of the people we place are still in seat after 90 days.
I'd rather give you that number than a testimonial.
The first 90 days is where remote hires quietly fail. Not dramatically. They drift. Slower replies, thinner reports, a Slack status that's always "away".
Most of that is decided before day one:
→ Did anyone check they've owned an account, not just assisted on one
→ Did the brand write down what good looks like in week two
→ Is there one person on the client side who talks to them every day
We control the first one. We push hard on the other two.
The ones who stick aren't the cheapest, or the most senior on paper.
They're the ones who were told exactly what the job was 🤔
