/* SalesIntouch — site styles (v4, brand-led)
   Colour comes straight from the logo: indigo, teal and gold, joined by the logo's
   indigo → teal → gold "growth line", which is the recurring brand device.
   Type: Big Shoulders (condensed display, bold and modern) + Instrument Sans (text and interface).
   Layout: one 12-column grid; headings left, content right, so rows are never half empty. */
