More noise, more difficult to cut through

Has anyone else had the experience that it has been MORE difficult than usual to cut through the noise in 2020, and continuing into this calendar year? I've noticed that since the time more people have become remote workers, or are away from an office, it has been more and more challenging to get someones attention via LinkedIn, email reply, cold call, etc.

It might sound anecdotal but I've talked to other reps at partnering companies and with my own colleagues and it seems much more difficult to get a simple intro meeting than it was just 2 or 3 years ago.

Would love to hear your experiences as well over the course of 2020 and Q1FY21
