  • Keep customers happy and sticky

    If you’re in CS - or run any business - learning strategies and tactics for keeping customers happy is key to success. This podcast is one of the few out there that focuses specifically on customer retention and delight. Josh and his team know their stuff - and the guests provide several golden nuggets in every episode. A must-listen!

  • Great, actionable learnings

    I just binge-listened to a bunch of Unchurned episodes and am loving them. There are so many business podcasts out these that lose my interest with how general and obvious their "learnings" are. Unchurned isn't like that - they cover high level concepts all the way down to specific tactics that I can try with my own biz. I feel like I come away with a must-do for myself from every episode. If you're serious about customer success, I highly recommend it.
