Where Should Customer Success Live? And Who Owns the Number?

By Willow Moellering

For our initial webinar we wanted to discuss a widely debated topic – “Where should customer success live? And who should own the ARR number?”.

Our founder, Jay Nathan, had the opportunity to kick off our upcoming webinar series as a guest with ClientSuccess.  Jay dives in for about 25 minutes on the Customer Imperative viewpoint and a few initial concepts to get the ball rolling. There’s by no means a one-size-fits-all solution but these concepts and models can help serve as guideposts along the journey. 

Check out the webinar below as it covers:

  • Where should customer success live in your organization
  • How to determine a model to determine ARR ownership
  • What does it mean to “own” a customer
  • How does customer relationship complexity factor in?
  • Who should own customer engagement activities
