I really hope that there are at least some companies that hire this way. Unfortunately when I was in the job market even with at least 3+ years of CSM experience and also 3+ years of sales experience I found it very difficult to even get an interview as a lot of CSM roles I kept applying for wanted more than that. I would think that having sales and CSM experience would make me an attractive candidate but I think so many companies are looking for unicorn candidates these days.
Let’s hope indeed 🙏🏼
That is not the reality in today''s market or in the U.S. job market.
Agree in the current market this is not the reality. Even with extensive experience from project/account management you struggle getting into CS

No,no,no. It takes a different type of personality to be a CSM.
This was a very insightful conversation, I replayed several sections for nuggets of information.

So glad to hear the video inspired you! Launching an Executive Sponsorship program is a big step, and it sounds like you're on the right track. Best of luck with your planning and implementation. Keep us posted on your progress!
Have you encountered and corporate policies that have blocked responses to any of these questions? RFPs come to mind but are there any other obstacles?
Great question. Yes, the #3 question around company policy aside - what is the likelihood your company will be a positive reference...that is sometimes a blocked question due to company policy. That's why we caveated it with company policy aside knowing that they may NOT be able to be positive reference and that is okay. The spirit of their response is what is important. Not the action to be a positive reference if not permitted by their company.
@@StephenFulkersonTSIA Thank you.
@@MsRentastic my pleasure!
Great to see other professionals coming together to educate companies on the shortcomings of NPS. This is especially important in B2B relationships where asking one standarized hypothetical question and expecting to get something meaningful out of it is simply impossible. There needs to be a new approach, whether it's the KORE framework or our RQS framework, that is specifically designed with the dynamic nature of B2B relationships and the different stakeholders in mind to tell you exactly what needs to be addressed to meet client expectations.
You are so right. The industry needs options. One size (one question) does not fit all and tell all. CS Executives cannot predict well and run the business off one question. Thanks for your comments and I totally agree!
FULL INTERVIEW >> bit.ly/jointcmyt
That there are other professionals taking a hard and critical look at NPS and exposing its shortcomings.
We had a partner success team at Carbon Black however our CRM was not set up as sophisticated as Silverfort with each partner having a health score. Those insights are invaluable to maturing the relstionships
Setting up the CRM properly in a manner that allows tracking each Partner Health Score can truly make a difference. Having a true north is one step forward I suppose... Thanks for sharing!
Have you launched a partner success program yet? Comment below!
Alex is a wealth of knowledge!
We agree!
I loved being on the show! Such great and practical questions.
Your kind words mean a lot! It was a pleasure having you on the show.
What digital customer success challenges have you faced in your own business journey? Share below! 💬
Thank you for this 🎉 you are my mentor in CS
I'm honored, thank you!
Super insightful! For the incentive piece, are there non-monetary incentives that are just as effective as monetary ones (gift cards, etc)? I'm thinking of my customers who have tighter budgets and aren't able to offer monetary incentives, so curious to know if there are any other creative incentive options for this group
Still has intrinsic cost BUT swag works great too in lieu of gift cards. Can be inexpensive swag that has utility 🎉
@@RebelsofSaaS thank you!! I like that idea! 🙌
Have you implemented any of the digital Customer Success strategies we covered in your organization? Share your experiences below! #CustomerSuccess #DigitalEngagement #CSMCommunity
Sales is hell. I so badly want to transition out. I’ve been doing this for 6 years and I’m absolutely miserable. The anxiety and horrible self worth is awful.
I'm sorry to hear you're feeling this way. Transitioning can be challenging, but remember your well-being is important. Your happiness matters. Hope you are able to move to a CSM role soon.
So great podcast ! Thanks Irit and Dannah for sharing this insights!
Share your best survey response rate down below!
I am curious what question did you survey? the same NPS questions, or do you personalize questions based on the contact's job, time with you?
Adjusted question structure based on where they are inside of client journey. Also, different questions in transactional versus non-transactional scenarios. I like the idea behind client persona targeting. Planning to try this next! That is why surveys are exciting, great opportunity to experiment. Closing the feedback loop to produce client outcomes (based on their feedback) is what really matters. 🎉 Clients stop talking if we stop listening.
@@RebelsofSaaS Danna, what tools do you use to do persona targeting, automatically closing the loop? You are describing part of what Theysaid do. We surface risks and growth opportunities depends on which persona answers which personalized questions. Would love to have you check it out and review us.
Industry average response rate for NPS is 1%-4%, long form surveys even lower. McKinsey wrote an article about Survey faiture meaning people lack the motivation of filling out surveys. A common Myth is that survey fatigue is caused by sending too many questions too often, but in fact the number one drive of survey fatigure is the perception that your organization won't take action on the feedback. Fair enough, if my feedback is going to a place where dreams dies, why should I give you more feedback in the future?
Nice stats! I've mostly seen 5-12% as the average. This week, I posted a poll on Linkedin about this very question and the results thus far suggest very few have less than 2% response rate to customer surveys. Check it out: www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7182892321821134848

So awesome ♥️
Loved exploring churn management with Varda Tirosh? 💡 What insight struck you the most? Drop your thoughts or questions below and let's continue learning together!
Love the CS content you generate. Original and exactly a CSM would need.
It took me a while to understand, he is bringing different companies together, so its not a an ex meeting within the company but one with many companies?!
In this interview Mike is sharing his approach to running A customer advisory board (CAB). A CAB is not an internal exec meeting - it is a strategic group of various customers who provide feedback, insights, and strategic advice to a company on its products, services, and overall business strategies. Usually the CS or the marketing team manage this initiative and they are the ones who also select which customers would be invited to participate in this group. Participants are typically high level executives from both the customers and the software vendor.
This is great content! I was looking for content to understand what CSMs do in detail! I
Awesome!
