While most technology companies focus on acquiring new customers, market leaders are winning by maximizing the value of existing relationships. The data is clear: organizations that excel at customer experience achieve dramatically superior financial performance.
Alexander Group’s latest benchmark research reveals a striking pattern. Top-performing companies don’t just deliver better customer experiences—they’ve fundamentally reimagined how post-sale functions drive business results. The opportunity is massive, but the window is closing as competitors catch on.
59% of CX leaders lack clear buyer journey maps. Organizations that align job responsibilities across post-sale roles achieve 90% gross retention and 4.5 customer satisfaction scores while driving expansion opportunities.
Sales-focused CSMs drive 109% Net Revenue Retention and 2.6-month time-to-value, while adoption-focused CSMs excel at retention. The key is matching your CSM model to your strategic priorities.
81% of top performers use multiple support tiers based on customer value. Companies with higher self-service deflection rates report significantly lower engineering escalation rates while optimizing costs.
Over 60% of organizations plan to implement AI in 2025 for customer onboarding, churn monitoring and expansion opportunities. Leading companies use AI to handle reactive tasks, freeing teams for high-value activities.
Professional Services with clear utilization goals achieve 28% margins versus 20% for traditional structures. Only 23% of companies had professional service sellers on a bonus compensation plan with defined utilization goals.
