📈Expansion is Success (new pod episode)
Our latest episode of Impact Weekly is all about Expansion... getting customers to buy more, but in a customer-centric way.
We've talked recently about Customer Success pivoting from growth to profit and/or efficiency, but the reality is... you'll always have a cohort of customers ready, willing, and able to buy more, and that expansion will help you grow more profitably and efficiently. *See the BTW for a caveat.
​Check out this week's pod... it's one of my favorite episodes so far.
Have a great weekend,
Lincoln
BTW: Our two-week Expansion training program starts on Monday 4-Dec and there are still a few seats left if you want in.

*While it's true you'll always have customers that are ready to buy, the problem is, most of them won't just Oliver Twist it (please sir, I want some more)... you have to be deliberate in how you approach this, making sure you put what they need in front of them when they need it. You're not trying to sell them anything, you're just making sure they're positioned for continued success.
​Come to the Expansion training and you'll learn exactly how to do that. See you on Monday.

Trying to get customers to execute perfectly when they don't have experience, expertise, or even the desire to do so. Yet, we've designed our entire operation and organization to try to make this work. We've created a profession and discipline around this. That's insane if you think about it. I remember way back in 2012 when I was working with email marketing platforms. Customers would churn from one provider to another looking for better results. But the problem wasn't the platform. It was...
