Customer success strategy for agencies

Hi all! I'm new to the GGR community, and I'm happy to be here! I work for a small consultancy that specializes in building + maintaining a data stack for clients. With a background in SaaS customer success, I've been working on outlining a formal client success plan for the company as we continue to scale.

I'm wondering if anyone here works in the agency // consultancy space, and has any tips for building out CS practices. I've run into some unique challenges and most of the resources I've found online are geared towards SaaS // product based CS orgs.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Emily & welcome. Sounds like you're in a pretty unique marketplace. I'd be curious to know more about how the services your company provides are sold, delivered and currently maintained. Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn (link in signature)

Hi Emily,
Welcome! The great news is that CS is growing to serve more than just Saas. The not-as-great news is a lot of the resources available still focus on Saas platforms. I am working to stand-up a CS function for our on-premise SMB customers and have had the same struggle. If I come across anything valuable, I will pass it along.

Hi Emily, welcome to the community. I am a CSM in hardware, so I went through the same thing you are going through with trying to build practices around little to no data.
