Part 3 - Maximizing Value

    The Path to Value focuses on guiding customers to quickly realise the benefits of your product or service. By identifying key milestones and removing barriers, you enhance satisfaction and build long-term loyalty.

Expansion Strategies

Unlock Growth Within Existing Accounts

    Expansion Strategies focus on identifying opportunities to grow revenue by deepening relationships with current customers. One of the most challenging parts for a Customer Success Manager is spotting upsell and cross-sell opportunities within their Book of Business. Let’s be real—not every customer will have an upsell potential. That’s why it’s crucial to manage your time wisely by focusing on the right accounts.

 

Apply Tools to Drive Smart Expansion

    Utilise resources like Account Growth Plans and Cross-Sell/Upsell Playbooks to strategically target opportunities. Apply the Pareto Principle (80/20 Rule)—focus on the 20% of customers likely to generate 80% of your growth. Clearly define who is responsible for the upsell or cross-sell, ensuring alignment between Customer Success, Sales, and Account Management for a smooth, customer-centric approach.
