I have recently been given the opportunity to take on creating a Customer Operations function. I am transitioning from a career of managing Customers and CS Teams, to now having internal stakeholders (CS and Partner Teams), and acting as the product owner for our post contract tools and processes. CS Ops seems to be becoming more and more of a thing so I am curious to hear from the group on a couple of things:
- Where is your organization at with investing in Customer Success Operations?
- How are you justifying the benefits of CS Ops?
- How are you differentiating from Sales Ops?
- What are the KPI's you are using to define success for CS Ops?
- What are the roles and responsibilities for your CS Ops team?
Looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts here and I'm certainly open to finding time to chat 1 on 1 or even hosting a group chat if folks are interested.
