Customer Success Training to Improve Customer Success Manager Skills
Every part of the commercial enterprise plays an important role in driving revenue growth. But when you consider that 70-80 percent of the average company’s revenue comes from existing customers, one of the most underutilized roles is customer success.
Most customer success managers get tasked with adoption, utilization, satisfaction, and problem resolution. But as customer success prioritizes these foundational elements of the relationship, they often lose sight of the higher-level strategic goals of their customer executives.
In fact, one recent industry survey found that 60 percent of companies have lost accounts because they were unaware their key stakeholders and influencers were not aligned or had left the organization.
When your customer decision makers get no insight into how your solution helps them meet their goals, it leads to more churn and fewer expansion opportunities.
