Intro
Once you have successfully implemented, your main point of contact at MX will shift from your Project Manager & Account Executive over to your Client Strategy Consultant (CSC). At MX, we call your new point of contact a Client Strategy Consultant because they are here to provide strategic direction that will help you maximize the value and potential of the MX products you just purchased.

CSC Team: Lesson 3
Your Client Strategy Consultant is just that, a consultant, not a support representative. The difference between a CSC and a support representative lies in what CSC stands for: Client Strategy Consultant. They are here to be a true partner in working with you to help you realize key objectives that are critical to moving your organization forward. If you encounter a question or issue related to the MX platform that you can’t resolve on your own, we have a Technical Support Team that has years of experience handling complicated technical questions and unique user scenarios.
Your CSC will be your point of escalation, not your technical support representative. Use Zendesk for technical related issues, if there are other issues, you will go to your CSC.

CSC Team: Lesson 4
To help us better understand how we are performing in our partnership with you, we have developed a series of metrics we call a “Health Score”. We will review your health score with you periodically during Strategic Business Reviews. This score helps your CSC to know where you are in your life cycle, how happy you are with the services and products you have purchased, what adoption and utilization of those tools looks like, and whether or not we have established relationships with key individuals at your organization. Ultimately, the purpose of this score is to make sure you are getting the best value out of the products you purchased with MX.
The key components of your health score
Your health score is ultimately how we measure the success of our partnership with you and ensure you get the most value out of the products you purchased.
Do we have key relationships at your organization?
Provide your basic organizational structure. Make introductions to key individuals.
Do we have an understanding of your business objectives?
Provide insight into what you are trying to accomplish outside of MX. What matters to the key individuals we are working with.
Are there opportunities to improve your integration?
Make your integration more contextual and less piecemeal. There are U/I components we assess as well as how we’re passing the data back and forth and responding to it. For example: are you using real-time APIs that translate into more timely insights or dated data plumbing for the pipes that are not providing the most optimal experience.
How well are you using MX data and your customers leveraging the tools?
Leverage enablement materials to train your staff and clients.
Have we helped you realize value with MX products?
Participate regularly in Strategic Business Reviews.

CSC Team: Lesson 6
A dedicated CSC is meant for you. They are a powerful resource we provide to help you get the most value out of the MX products you purchase, but they can’t do it alone. We’re providing the experts, and we need you to provide a thing or two along the way.
The greatest success will come from a true partnership where you and the CSC work together.
1. Clarity into your basic organizational structure 2. Participation during Strategic Business Reviews 3. Introductions to the right people 4. Willingness to participate in Case Studies
What we need from you:
