You're a Customer Success Manager.
Your job is helping customers succeed with the product.
That starts with onboarding.
But onboarding is a bottleneck.
You can only be on so many calls.
You can only explain the same setup process so many times.

Nearly half of CS professionals cite tracking tasks, owners, and deadlines as their biggest onboarding challenge.
Information gets lost in handoffs from sales.
Goals and expectations are unclear.
Customers don't know what success looks like or how to get there.

From "waiting for the onboarding call" to "I'm already set up"

The Old Way

Before ngram

  • New customer signs up on Monday. You're booked until Thursday. They get a welcome email with a link to documentation. They try to figure it out themselves. They miss a critical configuration step. By Thursday's call, they're frustrated and confused.
  • You spend the first 20 minutes of the call troubleshooting their setup instead of showing them value. They're already doubting their purchase. You know this customer is a churn risk before they've even started using the product.
  • Meanwhile, your onboarding queue grows. More customers waiting. More enthusiasm dying. More potential churn building.
The ngram Way

After ngram

  • Same Monday signup. But now they get an onboarding video immediately. You walk them through setup in 3 minutes. They watch, follow along, and complete configuration correctly the first time.
  • By Thursday, they've already experienced their first win. The call becomes strategic: how to get even more value, advanced features, expansion opportunities. They're not frustrated. They're excited.
  • You've scaled personalized onboarding without scaling your calendar. Customers succeed faster. Churn drops. And you focus your time on customers who need strategic guidance, not setup help.

Live calls vary in quality. You're better on some days than others. Video delivers your best explanation every single time. Every customer gets the same excellent onboarding, regardless of when they sign up.

Fewer support tickets from setup issues

49% of marketers report video reduces support calls. When customers follow a visual guide, they make fewer mistakes. Setup issues drop. Support tickets decrease. Everyone's time is better spent.
