CSMs will also partner with the Account Executive in their assigned territories to refer qualified expansion opportunities.
Relationship Building
As a CSM, you’ll work with your key contacts to gain a better an understanding of their business and how decisions are made (both strategic and commercial). You’ll execute a communication strategy within your accounts that presents the right information to the right stakeholders. You’ll deliver value to all stakeholders in your portfolio through training, best practice consulting, and KPI reporting. Most of all you’ll do everything in your power to make your stakeholders successful in their own organization.

Value Identification
CSMs work closely with our customers throughout their lifecycle stages beyond onboarding to facilitate organizational-wide adoption and expanded value from our solution and services. You’ll assist customers in reporting out key metrics from our solution including: user activity, adoption rate, words under management, Acrolinx Score, and overall content improvement. The very best CSMs will work with our customers to translate these product-based value drivers to business outcomes. These may include lead conversion, ticket deflection, increased customer satisfaction, and decreased abandonment rate. Metrics such as these will be reported out via a prescribed EBR and QBR program for our customers.
Outcome Management
As a CSM you’ll work with your portfolio of customers to define the KPIs associated with their use of Acrolinx. Beyond KPIs related to product usage and adoption metrics, we task our CSMs to take the next step with our customers and ask “why are you doing this?”. Once the proper business outcomes are associated with our solution, CSMs can partner with customers on the metrics associated with success.
Onboarding
CSMs assist the Project Manager, when needed, to coordinate product delivery, entitlements, professional services, and training.

- Business Savvy - CSMs need to act as consultants and to do so effectively you must understand the customer’s business. Understand what drives their success and have the ability to learn by listening to your customers.
