Want to know exactly what it takes to crack $150K+ in Customer Success this year? Spoiler: It’s not a straight climb up the CSM ladder. Most high earners don’t even have the "perfect" resume you’d expect.

Inside this episode, I deconstruct the real, actionable strategies from ten clients who recently landed six-figure CS roles. You’ll discover the resume keywords, career moves, and day-to-day behaviors that got them hired and the surprising patterns that break all the so-called “rules” of CS career growth.

Curious how your experience stacks up? Wondering what one move could unlock your next salary bracket? Listen now! This playbook could literally change your trajectory, starting today.
