Why it works

The story's villain is AmexGBT, not uncontrolled travel spend in the abstract. The prior enterprise solution actively backfired, producing 5% adoption and prices higher than consumer alternatives, so the case is built around why Rippling specifically solved what an established brand could not. The 85% adoption stat reinforces that point for small, fast-moving companies evaluating whether the switch would actually take hold.

Steal this

Naming the failed incumbent and quantifying its failure (5% adoption, 6x slower searches, prices higher than Google Flights) before introducing the new solution. It makes the switch feel inevitable rather than opportunistic.
