The best customer service is no customer service.
The best correlator to post-money valuation for premium SaaS companies is not monthly recurring revenue.
It's not revenue growth. It is churn.

N2 builds your capabilities to keep more customers and increase revenue - by optimizing the customer journey for loyalty and operational efficiency.
We do it by helping identify speed-bumps in the customer's quest for value and how you're enabling it; then crafting and implementing strategies that eliminate those speed-bumps.
Catalysts for Engaging N2
"We've been so focused on new revenue, existing revenue is beginning to churn and we're not sure where to start..."
"Initial adoption is slow, or it drops off shortly after launch..."
"Getting customers on board seems chaotic, takes too long and it isn’t as effective as it should be..."
"We don't have effective and/or repeatable plans for addressing
at-risk customers..."
"We're buried in reactively responding to our customers and can't effectively
preempt potential cancellations..."
"We can't tell which customers are at risk and why..."

Approach
N2 was founded in the summer of 2015 with the mission of helping SaaS companies quickly and effectively implement and develop Customer Success strategies and programs.
A common challenge with building out a Customer Success initiative is the need for deep industry or organization-specific experience and proven customer success operational know-how. N2's services are designed to address that challenge by delivering tactical know-how on an as-needed basis - saving time and money typically wasted on finding the perfectly experienced candidate (needle in a hay stack), or having an existing employee come up to speed on, and effectively evaluate and implement, a multitude of new process and system options. Using N2 allows business experts to continue to concentrate on what they're good at - delivering on their organization's unique value propositions.
Using our comprehensive expertise and proven methods we can quickly and effectively identify and prioritize the most impactful opportunities; then, tactically execute on those opportunities, down to the finest details.
