OUR TURNKEY SERVICES

Enter Turnkey Customer Success. It's now simple and easy to get you up and running fast, so you can concentrate on what's most important: Your, and your customer's success.
Coach
As a coach, my goal is to make coaching affordable with turnkey solutions and templates that get you what you need quickly. Why? Because I want you investing your time in your customer success career...not coaching to get you there. Coaching in customer success is a niche offering with few experts who can help, so it can be cost-prohibitive. But I make it easy with simple standard offerings to get you on the road to success quickly and effortlessly. Find out more below!

What is C.S.A.T?
Dana’s Signature C.S.A.T. Customer Success Maturity Assessment is a growth-engine tool
The acronym C.S.A.T. (Charter, Strategy, Analytics, Talent) is a play-on-words for the well known CSAT (Customer Satisfaction) Score. Although two completely different scoring systems and audiences, both work to assess how satisfied a customer is/will be.
A CSAT score is a widely-used external survey that contains only one question for a customer to rate, on a scale of 1-10, how satisfied they are with a particular company/product/experience, etc. It's used to help companies measure and find ways to improve a customer's satisfaction of the thing they're measuring.
Dana's signature C.S.A.T. Customer Success Maturity Assessment is an internal growth-engine tool for SaaS companies that was designed by Dana Soza based on almost a decade of experience, interviews, and research. The 4 categories and 5 markers encompass the totality of what turns customer success into a growth-engine for the business. It takes into consideration the impact of moving the needle in a particular area, as well as the level of effort needed to make those changes. It's used to continually mature your growth engine and will inherently improve a customer's satisfaction over time...making the acronym a perfect play-on-words!

Clients' story
Customer Success Manager
“...my lack of clarity was around how I perceived myself professionally, how much I doubted my instincts that I could be doing better, and my tendency to choose roles at companies that couldn’t offer what I needed. Our engagements gave me the momentum I needed to stop screwing around and start asking for what I deserved.”
