01The numbers that matter
01Total deal volume

Growth from a zero baseline, across tenure

02Marketing deals · YoY

More than doubled in twelve months

03Pipeline growth · YoY

Marketing-sourced, year over year

04Email-sourced pipeline

Share of total annual pipeline sourced by email

02Marketing deals · Year over year

Doubled deals in twelve months.

Marketing-originated deals more than doubled the year Selkire defined the funnel, made MQL and SQL criteria operational, and put pipeline visibility in front of leadership. The team didn't grow, the instrumentation did.

03Pipeline mix · Year over year

A balanced mix, no single lucky lever.

Conferences led on deal volume, inbound led on pipeline contribution, and webinars plus intent data closed material outcomes. Pipeline that keeps producing when a single channel goes cold.

04Practice growth · YoY

Every practice line grew, year over year.

Per-practice programs across webinars, list hygiene, content, and events compounded into growth on every line. Practice and client names redacted at the client's request.

05Inbound demand

Search and content that sourced deals.

Search and content were built as a pipeline channel, not a traffic report. First-time visitor sessions grew 9.5×, marketing-sourced deals more than doubled, and that demand landed in the CRM as a 215% rise in total deal volume.
