Customer Success (CS) is a critical component of a successful customer engagement process. Growing revenue requires your organization to be cross-functionally aligned on buyer value and solution differentiation before and after the sale. Capturing that value after the initial deal is essential for driving recurring revenue and expansion opportunities within accounts. Fostering alignment between the traditional sales organizations and your CS team is one way today’s top B2B SaaS and Tech firms gain an advantage in a competitive marketplace. When CS is able to maintain continuity through handoffs and convey value through the post-sale stages of the customer relationship, organizations reap the benefits of high renewal rates, reduced churn, and increases in Net Retention Revenue. For revenue team leaders selling HiTech solutions, we’ve designed this leader playbook for improving CS execution.

But the power of MEDDICC for influencing deal decision-makers extends far beyond the “E” in the acronym.

This April, on the Revenue Builders Podcast, we shared wisdom from hosts John Kaplan and John McMahon along with their world-class guests. The result was some of our best insights yet on leading a relationship-based sales motion that helps sellers connect with buyers and have greater influence. We dove into how new technologies are changing the sales process in The Impact of AI on Sales with James Underhill, and discussed where many B2B Sales startups go wrong in defining and connecting with their ideal customer with Monica Stewart. Our hosts also explored how leaders can equip their teams to better connect with specific roles in the sales process, with special deep-dives into Champions and the Economic Buyer. We publish two episodes every week, with both long-form discussions and bite-sized lessons to offer value to leaders at all stages of growth.
