Hi everyone! I'm presenting our CAB program recommendations to my LT next week and am hoping to share how other orgs are running their programs to give them a sense of the landscape.

If you run a CAB at your org and you have a moment, would you mind threading or DMing me with answers to a handful of questions? Hoping it'll only take you a minute or two!

• Your industry/vertical/who are your customers?
• Is your CAB mostly executives/senior LT or a mixture of levels?
• How many CAB members do you have? Do they have a commitment timeframe? 2 years, 1 year, etc?
• Do you offer them stock options or some sort of tangible offering for participating? If so, what?
• How many times do you meet per year? Are they mostly virtual or in-person? A mixture?
Thanks so much for taking the time.

Hi there @Cameron Olshansky! I don’t currently run a CAB program but I have in the past - here is what I can share from my experience:
• Industry was fintech
• CAB is mostly senior executives/decision makers
• CAB typically included 15-25 folks and commitment was for a year at minimum but they can renew if wanted to
• We offered them gifts/gift cards for their time and participation for each invite, feedback session, etc.
• we would meet with them at least once a year and then the rest would be virtual. The in person meeting would be a bigger event and we’d bring in team members from the company to meet the CAB members and announce new products.
