Hey there 👋
This month’s sped past (well, it is only 28 days) but we’ve been working away to continue delivering high-quality content and events for CS leaders, like yourself.
On our minds this month, we’re thinking about how to better align yourself with customer success and understand your customer base on a deeper level.
ICYMI: next month we have three events running (one being in the Big Apple 🍎) - hope to see you there?
Now, put all that excitement to the side and grab your dessert spoon for a serving of CS scoop.

CS Connect
In the latest episode of CS Connect, our host and Microsoft’s own Customer Success Strategist, Vish Walia, is joined by Swati Chopra, Senior Director of Customer Success & Support at DocuSign.
The topic on Vish and Swati’s mind is a super interesting one: monetizing CS. How can you do it? Can everyone do it? What processes should CS leaders bear in mind when pursuing this revenue route?
