Master Your Success Chain
to Get the Results You Want!
In any given situation, you are either the supplier or the customer. Regardless of your role, your success is inextricably linked to the success of the other party. Neither can succeed if the other fails.
The Success Chain model below highlights how in the subscription economy the success of suppliers and customers is inextricably linked.
Your Success Is linked!
When you are the customer, you only buy more after you've solved your immediate business problems and achieved your goals as a result of using the tools and services provided by your supplier.
When you are the supplier, you only increase sales and grow your organization after your customer has successfully achieved their desired business goals and they decide to renew.
Each Renewal is a New Success Cycle
Every time you enter into a renewal, you start a new cycle of linked success.
If the customer is getting value, they continue to renew and expand. Each renewal and expansion decision is directly linked to the value they have achieved and perceived in the previous renewal.
Success Cycles are Linked - Forming Your Success Chain!
Every success cycle is linked to the cycle before. This linkage between both parties achieving success is what makes your Success Chain!
Your goal is to make your Success Chain as long and strong as you can.
The New Rules of Success
The old rules between suppliers and customers have changed.
You need to change too.
In today’s subscription economy, the old rules and relationships between suppliers and customers have changed. You need to change too.
Gone are the days where the supplier made a large, up-front sale, and then left the customer to achieve success on their own. Today:
- The success of customers and suppliers is inextricably linked. The success of both parties is dependent on the success of the other. Neither can succeed if the other fails.
- Customers struggle to achieve success on their own. Customers lack the expertise and resources to manage change, drive user adoption, and achieve success from using the suppleir’s products. Customers rely on suppliers to provide the resources and services to achieve their business goals.
- Customers need strong, financially viable suppliers that continuously evolve their products and services. This ensures the suppliers’ tools continue to meet the customer’s evolving needs.
- Suppliers need long-term relationships with customers that deliver the reoccurring revenue the supplier needs to grow and evolve their products and services.
- Suppliers need customer expansions, feedback, references, testimonials and social proof to grow and achieve success. These only come if the customer first achieves success.
Success Chain helps both customers and suppliers achieve success
and grow their organizations!
