INTRODUCTION<br />

Raising the Bar on <strong>Customer</strong> <strong>Success</strong><br />

<strong>Training</strong> and Education<br />

We created the <strong><strong>Success</strong>COACHING</strong> program<br />

because, while everyone knows that good<br />

<strong>Customer</strong> <strong>Success</strong> training is critical to<br />

companies?success, we didn?t feel like anyone<br />

was delivering the type of training that today?s<br />

<strong>Customer</strong> <strong>Success</strong> practitioners need.<br />

Our programs shift the focus away from providing<br />

general information about the ?why? and the<br />

?what? to delivering pragmatic, proven methods<br />

and practices that provide the ?how? of top-notch<br />

<strong>Customer</strong> <strong>Success</strong>.<br />

OUR MISSION<br />

At <strong><strong>Success</strong>COACHING</strong>, our mission is to reinvent<br />

the <strong>Customer</strong> <strong>Success</strong> training experience for<br />

Leaders and <strong>Customer</strong> <strong>Success</strong> Managers, to<br />

make it practical, effective, and actionable as soon<br />

as you leave the lesson or classroom.

workload and capacity based on your customer<br />

contact and engagement model so that you can<br />

have more intelligent conversations about your<br />

capacity with your leadership.<br />

How healthy are your customers? You?ll learn<br />

churn or put your customers 'at-risk'. We'll show<br />

what to track as possible risk indicators, and<br />

you'll learn the importance of early intervention<br />

and not relying on techniques to save the<br />

customer.<br />

Identifying and Managing Risk<br />

Risk is inevitable. Managed well, risk can be<br />

turned from a negative experience to one that<br />

provides valuable insights as well as a positive<br />

outcome for the customer. We?ll share how to<br />

build a risk management process that holds all<br />

company departments accountable and<br />

decreases the probability of risk turning into<br />

churned revenue.<br />

Managing Bugs, Feature Requests and<br />

Workarounds<br />

Working on the front-line, you?re a critical<br />

interface between your product team and your<br />

customers. <strong>Customer</strong> <strong>Success</strong> is often<br />

challenged by customers to prioritize bug fixes,<br />

accelerate feature requests, and create inventive<br />

workarounds to compensate for gaps in product<br />

functionality. We?ll discuss how CSMs can use<br />

their unique vantage point to influence product<br />

roadmap and help Product Managers to better<br />

understand the impact of sometimes seemingly<br />

innocuous decisions.<br />

customer feedback is like striking gold, but what<br />

about negative feedback? You'll learn how you<br />

respond to both and what you need to do with<br />

the information to drive improved engagement<br />

and higher levels of customer advocacy.<br />

Learning From Churn<br />

There?s no other way to put it. No-one likes<br />

losing a customer. But, rather than just wave<br />

farewell to the customer, let?s see if there?s a way<br />

we can take this negative event and extract<br />

some positive learnings from it. We?ll explore<br />

some practical tools for better understanding a<br />

customer?s reasons for leaving and taking those<br />

learnings to prevent future churn. We?ll also give<br />

much harder to actually walk the walk. You'll<br />

learn what customer-first thinking looks like, and<br />

get some practical tactics that you can apply<br />

right away to increase your customer-centric<br />

thinking.


COURSE<br />

CATALOG<br />

Increasing Upsells and Expansion<br />

We need more upsell revenue! A familiar rallying<br />

cry from <strong>Customer</strong> <strong>Success</strong> leaders across the<br />

planet. But upsells and expansions are not a<br />

revenue source that you can just turn on like a<br />

tap whenever you want it. Instead they need to<br />

be carefully orchestrated many months in<br />

advance of the event itself. We?ll discuss the<br />

customer motivations for spending more money<br />

with you, how to approach the upsell/expansion<br />

conversation and how to set appropriate<br />

expectations with your manager.<br />

.<br />

Managing Retention and Driving Renewals<br />

If you?re making your customers successful,<br />

they?re likely to want to stick around. When it<br />

comes to improving retention and handling<br />

renewals, the best strategy is to ensure that<br />

customers have consistently realized value from<br />

their time and financial investment in your<br />

solution. In this module we?ll talk about how your<br />

ability to consistently demonstrate the value<br />

you?ve delivered is critical, and why the best<br />

renewals are the ones that happen organically.<br />

Cultivating and Nurturing Internal<br />

Relationships for <strong>Success</strong><br />

<strong>Customer</strong> <strong>Success</strong> is a team sport. Learning how<br />

to cultivate and nurture your internal<br />

relationships is critical if you want to get things<br />

done. Do you depend on others in your larger<br />

organization to make your successful? You'll<br />

learn learn how to establish effective internal<br />

relationships and how to align effectively with<br />

other parts of your organization so you get the<br />

help you need to make your customers<br />

successful.<br />

Aligning and Communicating with Sales<br />

Is blaming things on Sales becoming a contact<br />

sport in your organization? All too often,<br />

companies fail to realize that the old way of<br />

thinking, Sales is responsible for bringing in the<br />

customers and CS is responsible for keeping<br />

them, is dead. You'll learn how to align your<br />

priorities and objectives with your Sales<br />

counterparts and turn them into your key partner<br />

in delivering <strong>Success</strong>.
