Many early-stage Customer Success teams haven't begun to use Customer Education as a key to scale. Customer Success teams who make a true investment in Customer Education will see a positive change in the way their team's tribal knowledge scales out to have an impact on Sales, Marketing, and even Product.

Even one professional dedicated to capturing the expertise of your Customer Success heads will help you create reusable, scalable content.
