FT Works in the News

Cross-post alert: Segmenting customers for success

Natero published a post I wrote on how to segment for customer success. If you think that ARR segmenting is the only way to go, you will find other ideas that may work better for you, and for your customers.

Time to start a book club?

Back-to-school (and back to budgeting for 2017!) is a great time to start a book club with your support team. May I suggest The Art of Support, the complete guide to managing customer success and support organizations, from strategy to staffing models, to selecting tools? It is available in book-club packs for your convenience and sure to elevate the thinking and morale of your team.


Curious about something? Send me your suggestions for topics — or add one in the comments — and your name will appear in future newsletters.
