Customer Success managers across the industry are invited to showcase their business skillsets, win cash prizes, and earn recognition in the CSM Awards this May.
ChurnZero, the platform and partner for Customer Success, has announced the second annual CSM Appreciation Week to recognize the dedication and skills of Customer Success managers (CSMs) at SaaS and subscription businesses everywhere. Held from May 8-12, this week of appreciation includes the industry-wide CSM Awards, which offer every CSM the opportunity to earn prizes and recognition for their work and creativity.
“This year more than ever, Customer Success managers deserve extra appreciation for their tenacity and resourcefulness in keeping customers, driving value, and growing revenue,” says You Mon Tsang, CEO and co-founder, ChurnZero. “They’re not just their customers’ coaches, consultants, and advisors; they’re also the engine driving the SaaS industry through the turbulence of 2023.
