It is always positive to grow with your customers and our teams worked really hard to finish out Q2 2021 stronger than ever. Our pipeline remains solid, and we are excited to continue on our path of growth.”
To keep pace with the growth, Affinitiv successfully added new talent to the team, with a total of 80 new hires in the first half of the year. Affinitiv’s “Work from Here” program launched in Q4 2020 continues to motivate our associates to do more by working from wherever they are.
