Must-Have Skills for an Impactful CSM Team: Verified Outcomes & Success Plans

Hello! So excited to be attending my first live Pulse event AND making my speaker debut 🤓. This session is close to my CSM heart. It is essential that CSMs are able to showcase value to our customers throughout the customer journey that was promised during the sales cycle. In this session, I will be discussing the importance of identifying customer objectives/metrics to measure value and ultimately showcase ROI. What is a value realization program? CSM wins/highlights adopting value framework program How do we guide customers from the Outcome Hypothesis to a Verified Outcome? After this session, you will learn how to develop an Outcomes Hypothesis, drive and assess progress, and verify your customer’s desired outcomes. Can’t wait to see you there!

Must Have Skills for an Impactful CSM: CS = Customer Experience + Customer Outcomes

Hey Everyone!  I cannot wait to get to SF for Pulse and I am especially excited to be participating in this CSM-led track! 🚀Often times when we discuss Customer Experience (CX) and Outcomes (CO) here at Gainsight, we’re speaking about measuring CO with our DEAR framework and the correlations with Net Revenue Retention📈We might also talk about measuring CX with NPS or ‘closing the loop.’ All very important- but we’re only scratching the surface, missing out on an important discussion around how inspiring orienting our work around CO and CX can be! 🤩For my session, I wanted to dig into how we can use the CX + CO framework to add context and purpose to the entire breadth of work that a CSM does (What’s-in-it-for-CSM, so to speak). In my track, we’ll coverHow gathering outcomes at all levels of the business and numerous points in the customer journey makes for easier renewals and drives expansion 📊 Why prioritizing a Human-First approach is crucial for excellent CX 🌞  How the Gainsigh

Top 3 Mistakes Making Your Data Strategy a Struggle

Data maturity, Data structure, Data analytics… it’s all we hear and talk about lately.Why is it so important and why has data become such a struggle?Data is the new gold. We have to ensure we have insightful and powerful data to help our organization achieve their goals. But how does it all start. It almost feels like the right place to start is to look at our current data. Well, I am here to tell you, it starts even earlier than that.Think about your data prior it ever being created. Think about actionable objectives, you can do now to help curate data gold. As I mention in my session at Gainsight Pulse 2022, there are 3 main strategies I live and breath by. 1.

Mobilize community to create career success -- Pulse Session Preview

It took the collision of three forces to move me from CS Ops to Community Management:I found that facilitating collaborative conversations was the 20% of my role that I wished were 80%, and I had opportunities to describe that to my boss, my boss’ boss, and my boss’ boss’ boss (aka our CEO). Gainsight’s customer admins started their own community meetups, which led to a Slack channel, in addition to the official Gainsight community, which demonstrated the depth of the energy and enthusiasm that was available. Senior management identified that the Gainsight market was hungry for more admins, to the degree that it was slowing down customers and prospects who were eager for that kind of expert systems consultant.I was the right person to pave the way for more people to get into a CS Ops or Gainsight Admin role, and to make people in the role more successful. I did it by creating resources and events that connected knowledgeable people to learners.You can do the same, for your admins or fo

Insights from Pulse 2023: Verified Outcomes and Growth Mindset

 As a first time Pulse attendee, I have to say that Pulse did not disappoint! It was a jam packed week of sessions, customer meetings, meet and greets, Pulse puppies, etc. As a first time speaker for the CSM track (“Verified Outcomes and Success Plans”), I was able to witness the magic of Pulse in person! A few notes from my session that I spoke on: Do you currently have a value framework program at your company? If not, you can still apply the key parts of the “Outcomes Hypothesis” to help customers quickly identify and achieve value with your company.  Understanding our customer’s key value drivers (business challenges they are trying to solve for) is so essential. At Gainsight, we found that our customer’s with at least 1 verified outcome at 3 months prior to renewal had 30% higher GRR than customers without verified outcomes.  As CSMs, can we look at our BOB and identify each of our customer’s value drivers Value realization programs are designed to help you define how you are goin

Real humans! In person! I’m still finding that a delight (especially since I’m full-time remote). When we raised the curtain for networking at last year’s Pulse, we had dozens of people raise their hand before Pulse! So we wanted to get the ball rolling so that you can have the maximum possible number of rewarding, valuable, and delightful conversations when you’re in San Francisco.Comment below with your top interests for conversations you want to have at Pulse this year (digital CS, community management, exec reporting, etc.) so the people who are looking for you will find you!

Networking at Pulse: Fire up your LinkedIn QR Code

You know this scene: You’re at Pulse (or any other networking event, really), you’ve met someone new, and you’re going to connect on LinkedIn. Except it’s hard to spell the name, or there are 17 people with that name on LinkedIn or your thumbs get all nervous when typing “publicly”. So do this:LinkedIn has a QR code within that’s specific to you. You can show your code and they can take a picture with their camera. Or reverse the process: Show them how to display their code and you scan it with your camera.To find your code:Open the mobile LinkedIn app. At the top, tap in the search bar. Inside the right end of the search bar, a QR code icon will appear. Tap that QR icon. You can display your code, or switch to scan mode to gather someone else’s code.Happy networking, friends!
