Discover customer goals (Find out how)

Published about 1 year ago • 1 min read

There is debate in CS about whether knowing your customer's goal is required.

The debate is between people who believe knowing your customer's goal is required and people who are bad at Customer Success.

If you believe that understanding your customers' goal is fundamental to Customer Success, then you'll want to listen to this week's episode of our Impact Weekly podcast where we do a deep dive on Goal Discovery.

Listen to the podcast here.

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...
