Duplicate goals appearing - Doc update.

In the C360 Customer Goals tab, the user is seeing two of the same goal after adding. This is confusing to some of our end users. There is nothing in the documentation on this being a field that shows all of the recently added goals until you hit dismiss or refresh the page. Is there a way to not show this field or to update the documentation to reflect the actions needed to clear out the orange bar, or to disable it.

November 2022 CS Ops Newsletter

Subscribe to this monthly newsletter here!  Hi there,I’ve recently had a surge in questions about the ‘right’ investment in CS Ops. Welcome to budget season! I respect that it’s a tricky challenge. You’re not buying more of the same ol’ stuff. It’s more nuanced: you’re investing to unlock access to a more sophisticated version of your CS team.(Also recently, I’ve had entirely too much fun with DALL-E, generating AI art.) So, if you’re taking stock of your CS Ops spend, I have two north stars to offer: (1) What’s everyone else investing?Data from 2021 says:A ratio of CSM:CS Ops of 12:1. This comes from a Gainsight survey of 60+ companies with at least one CS Ops role. 61% of companies have CS Ops, which was triple the rate of the previous year. Average CS Ops spend = 3% of CS spend (middle two quartiles ranged from 1% to 7%). This comes from a Gainsight and RevOps Squared report, based on a survey of 350 companies. For example, Gainsight’s CS Ops team is called “Ops & Scale”, and is

Do you default to Data Designer?

Hello!Trying something new with a short Gainsight admin video. It is a bit of fun. Hopefully, you find it informative. Please share your feedback.I don't think I'm ready for TikTok just yet, but with more practice, who knows 😄I'll get us started with Data Designer because I rarely use Data Designer. And I noticed the feature wasn't particularly prevalent in the Gainsight admin certification.Two questions:Do you default to Data Designer?What do you like to use Data Designer for especially?

Pulse Europe 2022 - From Customer Journey to User Journey

Really looking forward to being on stage at Pulse Europe 2022 in 2 weeks and sharing our journey in building a digital end-user journey to complement our customer journey.In the presentation, I'll talk about how a digital user can complement your customer journey, why it's important to adopt a multi-channel approach for this journey, and illustrate this with the self-service onboarding program for TrendMiner we launched last year.This program combines an in-app journey via Gainsight PX, a series of onboarding emails via Gainsight CS Journey Orchestrator, Fundamentals webinars, eLearning, and a getting started section in our user guide. Its implementation led to an increase of user activation between 5 and 10 percent.Let me know if there's anything you would like to see covered during the session or in the Q&A afterwards... Session detailsFrom Customer Journey to User Journey: Scaling B2B CS by Focusing on the End-UserTrack: Scaling Massively with Digital EngagementWednesday, Novemb

Does Community support Customer Success or is it just for Support ticket deflection?

Very interested to hear if/how B2B tech vendors are using Communities to support Customer Success, particularly at Digital Scale, vs. as a low cost means of deflecting Support tickets.

Customer Success - Value realisation only or commercial to?

Hi All,I’m interested to understand if anyone has switched from a CS team owning Renewals & Expansion to a singular Value\ROI focus and the decision factors that led to this change? I’d also love to know more about what opportunities you faced along the way, specifically in managing the perception of a non commercial team becoming just a cost centre (in the negative term).For transparency I’m just trying to understand the reasons for and against as a thought exercise with my peer group.Thanks in Advance!Sean

NPS: one CTA per detractor response or one CTA per account with at least 1 detractor response?

What do you do? One CTA triggered per detractor NPS response, or one CTA triggered per account with at least one detractor response? I originally thought to only do one CTA per account, but I heard from others that following up with the specific detractor, and therefore doing 1 CTA per response, is another method.For context, we’ll be launching NPS to our admins only via JO email (not in product).

Connecting calendly booked calls to CTAs based on JO trigger

Hello everyone,  I’m a newbie in Gainsight (Cx & Px), but as we learn more and try to fully implement we have crossed an issue that we can’t seem to solve with the available documentation. We are big on tracking productivity and of course engagement, so in our different JO programs we have both emails and in-product engagements that have the CSM calendly link. Now we are struggling to be able to connect the calls booked by our customers with the different messages as they might be in 2 JO programs at the same time.  Our only idea so far is to have a calendly link (8 by CSM), based on each program but then when we see this from the Px perspective we will face a limitation in the number of attributes we could link as we would have to create 8 attributes per CSM. I’d love to pick on the collective brain and see if someone has managed to solve the tracking the call that has been booked to the proper journey/CTA/Activity for reporting purposes. Thanks a lot and I’m super happy to see th

How to Measure CS Ops

These are the core tenets that I’ve picked up about how to measure the effectiveness of a CS Ops team. How do you measure your CS Ops team’s success?Team ThroughputIt starts with tracking simple CS Ops activity. You can use some metric like features deployed. Since a large portion of our CS Ops team uses sprints, we can show "points delivered". @kendra_mcclanahan (Gainsight’s Director of CS Ops) has even built mechanisms in Monday.com so that those points are compared against expected vs. actual, and are reported broken down by high-level strategic initiatives and major areas of run-the-business responsibilities.Leading Indicators of ImpactYou’ll then want to start to collect signs that your CS Ops team is actually starting to make a difference. For example, @jennifer_bruno (Gainsight’s leader of CS Enablement & Transformation) runs a survey of our CSMs about how enabled they feel, how useful our health scores are, and so on. She coordinates with the rest of CS Ops about what areas
