New Research Confirms Education-Led Growth as a Critical Business Strategy

ATLANTA , March 18, 2025 -- A new research report from Intellum reveals that companies investing in Education-Led Growth™ (ELG) experience higher revenue, stronger retention, and improved operational efficiency, reinforcing education as a key driver of business success.

Why Education-Led Growth Matters More Than Ever

As organizations navigate economic shifts and competitive pressures, education has emerged as a strategic advantage. The 2025 ELG Report finds that companies treating education as a core business function see measurable impact across four key business outcomes:

  • Growth: 70% of organizations report that customer education accelerates sales cycles and drives expansion.

  • Performance: 75% say education improves efficiency and increases product adoption.

  • Retention: 84% confirm that education strengthens renewals and engagement.

  • Cost Savings: 57% use education to reduce costs and scale operations.

"Education is no longer just a support function—it's a strategic driver of business growth," said Chip Ramsey, CEO and co-founder of Intellum. "This research underscores the measurable impact of Education-Led Growth, proving that when organizations invest in education, they see tangible business outcomes."

Key Findings from the 2025 Report

The study highlights three major trends shaping corporate education:

  1. Integrating Education with GTM Strategy Maximizes Impact
    The research found that 68% of companies with formal education programs report a strong link to product success.
     
  2. Marketing & Analytics Resources Drive Success
    Organizations with dedicated analytics and marketing support consistently report higher education-driven revenue contributions.
     
  3. Education's Strategic Positioning Determines Its Impact
    Teams in Marketing & Sales are far more likely to see education as a revenue driver, while those in Support or HR/L&D often struggle to tie education to direct business impact.
