In this episode, we’re joined by Kate Sygrove, Director of Customer Success at Mouseflow, the SaaS platform for website behavioral analytics. Mouseflow is a $10M+ ARR business with 3,500 customers, 51 employees, and a CS org balancing enterprise white-glove with digital CS at scale.
Kate shares a practical playbook for one of the biggest CS challenges in SaaS right now: getting heard at the exec table. We unpack what it actually means to “speak the language of the CFO,” how to turn CS insight into predictive numbers the business can plan around, and why CS leaders need to pair hard data + soft data to drive decisions on churn, retention, and roadmap priorities.
Here are some of the key questions we address:
- What does it mean to “speak CFO” as a CS leader and, why does prediction matter so much?
- How do you convert customer sentiment into a forecast model that the exec team can use?
- Why is hard data + soft data the only reliable way to judge account health?
- How do you reframe CS initiatives into business outcomes like revenue protected, time-to-value, and scalability?
- What should CS leaders demand from Sales/Marketing/Product to make collaboration actually work?
- What changes when you transition from CSM → CS leader, and how do you prepare for the jump?
🎧 Tune in to hear Kate’s concrete frameworks for making CS visible, measurable, and influential and how to show up in leadership meetings with a clearer business case than ever.
