Customer Success is too often an undervalued market growth channel—if it's seen as a growth channel at all.


The fact is, happy customers that feel valued and appreciate your product and brand bring you new customers. They’re also a priceless source of information that can help you further optimize your growth framework.


How can startups effectively jumpstart and amplify user-driven growth? This panel discussion will delve into user-driven growth and how startups can drive more word-of-mouth marketing. You'll hear from founders and experts at marketplace startups with strong referral channels to learn how these startups have harnessed the power of the people to drive growth.


This event is part of the Marketing & Sales track at Startup Boston 2018.
