Customer Success Team Training [ Case Study ]
High performing teams are no accident. They require a clear strategy, effective leadership, and individuals who know how to function as a team. Every member needs to be clear both on their role, and how it aligns with those of other team members. Both new Customer Success teams and those who have been in operation for some time can benefit from training as a team.

Customer Success Executive Training [ Case Study ]
Given the huge range of what companies can include when they talk of Customer Success, it’s no surprise that the job of an executive leader of a CS group is far from easy. How should the team be structured? What aspects of the workflow are the most important for delivering on the mission? What should you be reporting to the Board about your group? These and a myriad other issues are yours to deal with in your role. Change is a constant, and access to experts who ask the right questions is vital for dealing with the evolution of the profession.

Customer Success Operations Training
Data about your customers and your own Customer Success team’s process is of no value if it is not analyzed and put to practical use.. Who are your Tier 1 customers? What makes them a fit for that segment of your customer base? What is the best procedure for growing more such relationships? Within your CS team, which playbooks are the most effective? Are there better ways to accomplish the same goals? What are the skills and knowledge that are required of CS Ops personnel? Coaching and mentoring is especially of value to those tasked with creating a CS Operations resource within their companies.

Customer Success Account Management Training
Since 2016, the percentage of Customer Success teams reporting direct involvement in renewal management, up-selling and cross-selling has rapidly risen. By 2020, the annual Customer Success Standards Initiative Research indicated that over 90% of all respondents had either direct or shared ownership of income and profitability streams. With the increasing involvement of Customer Success groups in what was previously a separate group in Sales under the label of Account Management, there is also an increasing need for those who may never have considered themselves as being about selling to learn various Sales techniques.
