Referral Contact Not Responding

This has happened a few times where an analyst/associate refers me to reach out to someone else on their team but that person hasn't responded. If I have followed up twice with the referred person is there a point in following up again or should I potentially reach back out to the original associate. Would love some help since the people I talked to seemed like they genuinely wanted to help
