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 to recognize circumstances that may lead to<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 />

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 />

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>.
