Digital CS for Every Phase of Your Customer Journey

Through automation, you can scale customer touches and engage with a growing list of customers often and effectively. This makes delivering optimized customer success outcomes more consistent, measurable and repeatable. Some examples of Digital CS that blend digital and human touch during onboarding, adoption/expansion, and renewal are listed below.

 

ONBOARDING

 

A smooth customer onboarding experience sets the tone for the customer’s relationship with your organization. It also helps customers start using your solution and quickly achieve ROI. A standard onboarding process with a combination of digital and personal touch points helps ensure your consistency of client delivery. 

 

Common Onboarding Automations:

 

• Sending multi-step welcome campaigns with integrated CTAs based on milestone achievements

• Triggering in-app feedback surveys and/or programs to send surveys 30 days after kickoff, as well as at the end of the onboarding process

• Sending automated emails to celebrate training/certification achievements and overall onboarding milestones

• Triggering CTAs to create a consistent handoff process between professional services and CS teams

 

nCloud can assist customers in automating processes by implementing Gainsight’s Journey Orchestrator. This tool leverages the power of automation to make your CSMs’ job easier as they communicate with customers at scale by blending digital touch with personal engagement. JO can also auto-trigger alerts and playbooks to offer a consistent customer experience throughout your entire customer journey. 

 

ADOPTION/EXPANSION

 

After customers are onboarded, it remains vital that customers use your solutions, continue to find value and utilize new features/functionality. At this point, it is important to track user adoption and align customer communication based on these adoption metrics. 

 

Common Adoption/Expansion Automations:

 

• Triggering CTAs for usage drops and/or utilization overages 

• Creating Milestones around specific adoption/ROI metrics

• Sending personalized adoption reports to customers on a timely basis

 

nCloud can also assist customers in enhancing the adoption process by setting up Gainsight’s Adoption Explorer. This powerful tool helps you understand how your customers consume, access and use your products and services. Usage data stored in Gainsight’s Adoption Explorer provides useful insights to drive adoption, increase revenue, design a better product, provide amazing customer service, or retain existing customers. 

 

RENEWAL

 

It is important to have visibility into account status, and know before renewal if your client is satisfied and achieving the outcomes they set out to achieve. It is also important to have a well-defined renewal process in place so it is a consistent, positive experience, and your organization can plan for growth. 

 

Common Renewal Automations:

 

• Triggering renewal CTAs with an associated playbook to create a consistent and positive renewal experience for customers

• Sending an automated email to the customer 90 days before the renewal with a link to the CSM's calendar to book an Executive Business Review

• Sending an automated Intent to Renew survey to gather feedback from customers

 

nCloud can also assist customers in streamlining the renewals process by setting up Gainsight’s Renewal Center. Opportunity data stored in Gainsight’s Renewal Center allows teams to deeply analyze and accurately forecast their renewal & expansion business, and can offer a predictive likelihood to renew score to identify risky customers earlier, as well as avoid missed opportunities.
