Hi all! I realize I sometimes comment on posts, but haven't introduced myself. I'm Marissa ๐Ÿ‘‹ I currently lead customer advocacy & storytelling at BetterUp (previously at Benchling, Clari, Highspot and Microsoft) I own our case study & customer video motions, reference program, logo / naming governance, and will kick off CABs later in the year. I would say my 'area of expertise' is field enablement & securing customer executive buy in.

I'm based in Tucson, AZ ๐ŸŒต

Welcome Marissa!! I love the executive buy in. Thatโ€™s awesome. What topics are you hoping to hear about in the community? Anything specific?

those are some awesome companies!

@Mary Green (Owner CMAweekly) I'm interested in eventually moving more into traditional customer marketing / lifecycle (onboarding, adoption, retention etc) so that's what I'm most interested in hearing about!

Wow! So cool to finally meet someone at BetterUp. ๐Ÿ™‚

@Marissa Bird those topics are so timely. We recently launched our membership and a lot of feedback we are getting is that people want more content on Customer Marketing vs Advocacy. Iโ€™ve got a idea in mind Iโ€™m working on to make this happen. In the meantime, Iโ€™m going to share some of the top resources we have on these topics next week in the general community. ๐Ÿ™‚
