How Does Education Map To Customer Success?

● We need to measure our impact on Customer Success metrics:○ Decreasing churn○ Increasing revenue

● Decreasing Churn○ If customers don’t know how to use the product you sold them, they’re

likely to churn● Increasing Revenue

○ SaaS products add new features - teaching customers how to use them helps sell more product

18© ServiceRocket

What do we need to do?

● We need to provide training ● We need to provide good training ● We need to get the right people into that training, and at the right

time● We need to confirm that our customers consume our training ● We need to be on the lookout for problems that training can obviate

(call deflection)● We need to consistently measure our impact on Customer Success

metrics: Decreasing churn, increasing revenue

Onboarding - Data-Driven Education Goals

● Deliver○ Training to End Users○ Documentation / Knowledge Base / Community (Measure

consumption)○ “Micro-Training” ○ Implement quizzes/tests/certification (particularly for key users)

● Analyze○ Survey your Trainees○ Report Training Outcomes against Goals

● Monitor Progress and Risks○ Monitor Usage/Adoption○ Monitor Support○ Summarize Impact

Use Case #2:Improving NPS

24© ServiceRocket

How Can Training Impact NPS

● Customer Satisfaction● Customer Support● Low NPS specific to Training Material

25© ServiceRocket

Low NPS: Customer Satisfaction

Training could be a problem here - particularly if your training is deficient in some way or doesn’t address certain customer needs.

● Your team can then coordinate with your Training function and address this in multiple ways:

○ Custom training engagements○ Smaller trainings around key features○ More on-demand material

26© ServiceRocket

Low NPS: Customer Support Issues

Your customer is unhappy and your NPS seem related to a high volume of Support Tickets which:

● Are not about bugs● Seem to be about basic product functionality

In other words - your Support staff is providing “Just in Time” training that your program lacks!

27© ServiceRocket

Low NPS: Evaluation of Training Content

Trainers have a hard job! Synthesizing material from many different (and busy) team members who are more expert than they are and making this high-quality and digestible content.

Are you surveying your learners? Surveys should:● Find weak spots in your material● Uncover gaps - missing content that you should add● Make sure you’re getting the right people in appropriate courses
