Case Studies

CASE STUDY #1

Project Goals:

ACME client needed to reduce and redesign their customer onboarding period as it was long, slow, and disorganized. ACME’s cumbersome onboarding processes caused delays in recognizing customer revenue as well as delays in customers’ Time to Value. The average CSM onboarding time was between 45-60 days.

Our Solution:

Through The Success Admin’s analysis, it was identified that ACME’s CSMs were having too many “kickoff” and scoping calls. Due to poor planning, CSMs were scheduling these calls to retrieve customer information necessary to set up their program. The solution was to reduce the calls by sending customers a pre-questionnaire prior to onboarding. This allowed both CSMs and customers to be prepped with all necessary information gathered prior to the first conversation. The Success Admin created a CTA, Playbook, and a prescriptive process for conversations that CSMs were to have with customers.

Results:

After implementation of The Success Admin’s solution, ACMEs customer onboarding days decreased by 30-40%. CSM bandwidth increased due to fewer kickoff calls per customer. Critically, Finance recognized customer revenue quicker. Customers also received a streamlined onboarding process across CSMs, and their Time to Value decreased due to fewer unnecessary delays.


CASE STUDY #2

Project Goals:

ACME client faced challenges with accurately forecasting churn across the global CSM organization. The CSM organization had yearly churn targets that the regional teams had to meet or outperform. The executive team needed accurate global and regional churn forecasts and up-to-date insights into key at-risk customers to focus on for retention.

Our Solution:

The Success Admin developed an automated CTA process whereby CSMs updated their churn forecasts weekly for ACME’s top-tier customers. This included building new reports and dashboards to provide greater insights into week over Week-over-Week churn analysis and top risks. The Success Admin also educated CSMs/CSM Managers on the importance of maintaining forecasting best practices as well as its new weekly cadence for updating executive updates via the CTA. Finally, we also designed streamlined meetings for the churn forecasting leadership to use, complete with agendas, proposed talking points, etc.

Results:

After the implementation of The Success Admin’s solution, forecasting accuracy was improved to +/-10%. This provided ACME’s forecasting team much more confidence surrounding the process and visibility of customer churn. Due to these improved results, ACME’s global organization realigned itself on the new forecasting methodology. The improved accuracy of forecasting churn produced greater business intelligence and improved fiscal year planning. ACME was then able to further develop programs and initiatives for customer health and retention.

  • 30-40% decrease in onboarding days

  • CSM bandwidth increased

  • Fewer kickoff calls per customer

  • Customer revenue recognized quicker

  • Time to Value decreased
