Build a performance culture grounded in clear metrics, regular feedback, and accountability.
Hire and onboard future team members as the SMB segment grows.
Design and operationalize a digital-first CS motion that drives adoption, retention, and expansion across a high-volume SMB customer base.
Build and optimize automated lifecycle programs — onboarding sequences, health-based triggers, renewal campaigns, and re-engagement workflows — using tools like Salesforce, HubSpot, or equivalent.
Develop and maintain a library of digital touchpoints including in-app messaging, email nurture sequences, self-serve onboarding resources, and video content.
Identify where human intervention adds the most value and design the motion accordingly, protecting CSM time for the highest-impact moments.
Own GRR and NRR targets for the SMB segment.
Monitor customer health signals and ensure the team is proactively addressing risk before it becomes churn.
Partner with Account Managers to identify expansion and upsell opportunities within the SMB base.
Establish and track leading indicators that predict renewal outcomes 60–90 days in advance.
Build and maintain dashboards that give CS leadership real-time visibility into team performance, customer health, and segment-level risk.
Define and track the KPIs the team is measured against, including adoption milestones, health scores, renewal rates, and response SLAs.
Partner with CS Ops, Product, Support, and Marketing to continuously improve the digital customer experience.
