Onboarding training starts Monday

Our 2-week virtual Customer Onboarding training program starts this Monday, 22-April, 2024. Onboarding is arguably the most important lifecycle stage the customer will go through.

In this program you'll learn how to get your new customers to do the things they need to do to get this fragile relationship off to...

Our 2-week Advocacy Training starts next Monday, 22-Apr, 2024. Most Heads of CS see advocacy as the finish line (if they even think about it at all, honestly). The customer gives you a testimonial or leaves a review after they're received some value from your product and that's it. World-class Heads of CS understand that advocacy isn't the end game, but rather a continuous cycle—what we call the "Advocacy Flywheel." And World-class GTM and Revenue leaders understand that Advocacy fuels...

Our 2-week Retention training and certificate program starts this Monday, April 8, 2024. This program is so unique because we take a different approach to Customer and Revenue retention. We focus on the differences between Proactive and Reactive Retention, how to move from the latter to the former through better prioritization, orchestration, and directing limited resources to higher-percentage activities. This program is practical in every sense of the word. Our Impact Academy programs are a...

The other day I posted an article where I said if you don't know (and stay continuously aligned on) your customers' goals, you're definitely doing something... it's just not Customer Success. This, as you might imagine, is controversial to some. But check it out for yourself and tell me where the lie is. Have a great weekend! ~ Lincoln BTW: We have two training programs starting this Monday, 4-March, that both deal with Goal Discovery and Continuous Alignment at scale. If you have customers...
