One of our podcast listeners asked, "We are very siloed in our work between CS and Sales, no one's fault really, but do you have any tips on how we can be more aligned?

Did you catch that? That one part of the sentence that explains everything? No? All good, because we did.

In this week's episode of Impact Weekly, Johan (he's back!) and I dive into the strategies and methods to bridge the gap between Customer Success and Sales teams, by talking about:

  • That one super-critical piece of their question (iykyk)
  • How a lack of alignment is hurting KPIs like NRR
  • Practical ways to foster communication and collaboration between CS and Sales
  • The need for Ownership of this process and Executive sponsorship
  • And much more!

Listen to the episode here.
