Customer Success - Why and How of Gainsight's 14 ElementsGainsight
These slides are from a breakfast event Gainsight hosted at the Royal Institution in Mayfair on Wednesday, the 13th of February. Dan Steinman, GM of Gainsight EMEA, and Easton Taylor, Director of Customer Success EMEA, shared best practices around organising for company-wide success and increasing revenue from within your customer base.
How to Evolve Your Health Score From Reactive to PredictiveGainsight
At its most basic level of sophistication, a health score can give you the heads-up on at-risk customers, but only as the customer is already in the process of churning. You may be able to make a save, but it may be too late. In order to proactively deliver outcomes at scale, you need to evolve your health score into a predictive model. This isn't a beginner-level health scoring seminar. In this session, you'll learn how to uplevel your processes to ensure outcome delivery at a much higher rate.
How to Better Align Professional Services to Customer SuccessGainsight
Professional Services are an integral part of your revenue engine. Selling Services offerings doesn't just put money in your company's bank account, it has the potential to give your customers a massive head start towards acheiving their desired outcome. But those benefits are only available to companies whose ProServ organizations are operating in sync with a company-wide Customer Success mission. If your Services team isn't marching in lockstep with your CS team, you're going to miss out on long-term renewal and expansion opportunities, and worse, you could be working against each other. Get very specific advice for better alignment in this session.
How Box Scaled to Millions of Engagements Using Tech TouchGainsight
There's an invisible wall in front of your CSM team. Maybe it's months away, or maybe you're already running into it. But without an army of CSMs (which you can't afford), you'll never get past it—and it's an immovable barrier to your company's revenue growth. As your customer base grows, you have to start automating or you'll never be able to scale. Maybe you have some automated outreach, but the key to lowering your per-CSM customer count is an advanced tech touch system.And that's just the beginning. Automation can infuse predictability, efficiency, and savings into an ad hoc CS organization. Learn how to go beyond one-to-many in this session.
How to Design a Value-Based Renewal Management ProcessGainsight
You can't rely on inertia to renew your customers for you. You can't even rely on customer happiness or delight to ensure a successful renewal event. In the Age of the Customer, the only predictable way to ensure renewal is to ensure your customers achieve their desired outcome. And that's intrinsically linke to value delivery. When you have a renewal process based on value, you're controlling all the variables that are in your control. Learn how to achieve a Value-Based Renewal Management process in this session.
How to Build an End-to-End Process for Defining and Delivering on OutcomesGainsight
When Customer Success has a limited scope at a company, it likewise limits the scope of the outcomes that company can consistently deliver. If the Customer Success begins after onboarding and ends before renewal, what sort of effect can your CSM efforts have on customer outcomes? It's absolutely critical that your success planning strategy encompass the whole lifecycle—end-to-end. And that's just for starters. In this session, you'll learn best-practices methods for understanding customer goals, defining them in concrete terms, and building a scalable strategy to deliver on them.
How to Institutionalize Feedback at Every Stage of Your Customer Journey Beyo...Gainsight
What's the first word you think of when you hear the letters "CX?" Chances are it's "surveys." But a best-practice Customer Experience program is so much more than just surveys. There are a lot of ways to gather accurate, insightful feedback, but there's a right way and a wrong way to get that feedback. There are several advanced tactics that will enable you to bake in feedback across the lifecycle, synchronized to each touch point and interaction your customers have with your company. In this session, you'll get actionable advice to institutionalize this system in your organization.
Science is all about consistency and repeatability. You know that a stone sinks in water because you can drop one in a pool a thousand times, anywhere in the world, and it will never float. Customer Success is a young movement, but we've reached a critical mass of data where we can start to make predictions—and more importantly—prescriptions for what will work for a company and a customer base and what won't work. Learn how the Science of Customer Success has been established and how to get more scientific in your CS strategy.
How to Build a Customer Journey That's Outside-In not Inside-OutGainsight
Here's how most companies used to map a customer journey: They'd start with their initial marketing outreach, advance down the funnel to the signed contract, and then onboard the customer. There would be training, a quarterly or six-month outreach, and finally, renewal or upsell. But think about it: how many of those milestones does the customer care about or even think about? From their perspective, a journey map would look very different. Innovative companies are abandoning this "inside-out" model. Why? Because it doesn't map to how customers actually think or behave. Learn the difference between the old way of thinking and the new "outside-in" way of customer lifecycle management.
How to Turbocharge Your Customer Insights While Making Them More Digestible f...Gainsight
It doesn't matter if you're a born-in-the-cloud company generating massive amounts of customer data or not, you still have so many channels available to collect passive and active feedback from your customer base. But unless those channels can be synthesized into a cohesive view, you're going to miss out on most of your valuable insights. Worse yet, without a unified picture, your signals might be leading you down the wrong path. In this advanced session, you'll learn how to get much more value out of your customer data insights without overwhelming your team or undermining your workflow and systems.

How to leverage customer marketing to drive salesGainsight
Do you have an inbox overflowing with unread sales or prospecting emails? On the other side of that pile of unread messages are hundreds of companies with amazing products and potentially game-changing value propositions. But you have no way to figure out which ones are useful and which ones are a waste of time—and you definitely don’t have enough hours in a day to sort them out for yourself.
There’s a better way for both the vendor and the prospect. Join Gainsight’s CCO Allison Pickens and Business Operations Lead and head of Customer Marketing Will Robins as they talk about the methodology that will ensure your sales outreach makes an impact. In this webinar, you’ll learn how Customer Success and Customer Marketing can dramatically bend the curve on pipeline in four highly actionable steps.
There are many reasons why customer accounts can be “at risk” and if you are in the unfortunate position where a customer churns early, you probably will not achieve the desired lifetime value. All of this makes aligning Sales and Customer Success critical. You need to sell the right level of your product to the right type of customer. Listen in to the webinar where we cover the topic of aligning Customer Success and Sales.
How to Unleash the Hidden Value of a Best Practices Voice of the Customer Pro...Gainsight
Your customer base is a constant feedback generating engine. That information is pure gold to any type of business, but especially recurring revenue companies. Unfortunately, it’s lost in the ether when you don’t have a systematic way to capture that feedback, transform it into insights, actualize those insights, and realize the value from the customer.
We call that infinite feedback loop the Voice of the Customer (VoC).
In this webinar, you’ll learn several actionable tips and tricks to spin up a world-class VoC program, as well as what common pitfalls to avoid along the way. Join Waypoint Group Founder and Principal Steve Bernstein and Gainsight Director of Product Marketing Ganesh Subramanian as they explore what makes VoC so valuable and how you can drive that value in your organization.

Oprah Winfrey: A Leader in Media, Philanthropy, and Empowerment | CIO Women M...CIOWomenMagazine

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
