Most businesses believe they have a retention problem — but what they actually have is a trust gap.

In this episode of Trust Leaks™, Sandra Martini breaks down what really happens after the sale but before long‑term confidence is built. Leads are coming in, clients say yes, work gets delivered — yet engagement fades, renewals stall, and referrals never materialize.

That breakdown doesn’t happen loudly. It happens quietly, in the middle.

You’ll learn why traction creates momentum but does not automatically create trust, and how unexamined assumptions during the first 90 days can quietly erode client confidence.

Sandra walks through the four most common trust leaks that appear between traction and retention — and the small, client‑centric habits that prevent them.

If you’re chasing growth but struggling to keep clients engaged, this episode will help you shift your focus from more leads to tighter trust.

Key topics covered:

- Why traction and trust are not the same thing

- The 90‑day window where retention is decided

- The four quiet trust leaks that stall renewals

- Why client success is an active practice

- How habits — not metrics — drive retention
