Today we're joined by Daphne Costa Lopes, Global Director of Customer Success at HubSpot, who highlights the critical role of customer success teams in a company's overall growth strategy.
She believes that the customer success department is often the "forgotten child" in revenue operations, but reminds us how important it is for businesses - especially professional services firms - to protect existing revenue and grow existing accounts. Account expansion becomes easier when CS reps can articulate the value of their product or service. Daphne shares a few examples of CRMs and AI-powered solutions that enable CS teams to track and communicate value.
