PHILADELPHIA, March 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, MRP, a global leader in predictive customer acquisition, released its winter business update, demonstrating continued success, ongoing product enhancements and marquee wins.

As global marketing and sales teams increasingly turn to customer engagement solutions fueled by artificial intelligence to drive revenue, MRP has continued to pioneer predictive customer acquisition, the nexus of account-based marketing, predictive intelligence and AI.

"In 2018, marketing and sales teams need to strengthen their tried-and-true methods with predictive analytics in order to convert active demand into engaged demand and into revenue," said Kevin Cunningham, CEO of MRP. "With MRP's continually advancing predictive software and managed services, we're increasing response rates, pipeline, deal size and revenue for our clients."
