customer success the easiest way to explain this job is to think of the gym when you sign up for a gym membership at a gym the best outcome for you and the gym as a business is that you start seeing results right because if you start losing weight and putting on muscle you'll start feeling healthier and happier then you'll want to keep your gym membership going and you might even recommend that specific gym to some of your friends the best way for a gym to help you start seeing results is to assign you a personal trainer the personal trainer will tell you how to do your exercises what to eat and they'll will even hold you accountable and provide moral support which overall drastically increases your chances of success this is essentially what someone in customer success does they are the personal trainer and guide for whatever product or service a company is offering this makes them an extremely important member of any team now this is slightly different from it who are more like plumbers people in it come in fix the problem and then they leave customer success on the other hand is more like a personal trainer who stays around and guides the customer to make sure they reach all of their goals gos which is why this is the perfect job for people who love building relationships with others and helping them grow the average starting salary for customer success is 50 to $65,000 per year and if we take a look at LinkedIn there are currently over 52,000 entry level open positions if you'd like to learn more about this career path and how to get hired in less than 4

to Simply set up appointments between the potential clients and the senior sales reps on your team which is significantly easier than closing the deal on your own eventually you will learn how to
