Responsibilities include onboarding new HubSpot Agency Partners into the Agency Partner Program and acting as their Customer Success Manager throughout their lifetime with HubSpot. Post-onboarding I consult these agencies on how to market, sell, serve, and grow better using the HubSpot platform for both their own businesses as well as their clients. With the foundations I learned as a Channel Account Specialist, this role has further developed my account management skills through partner relationship building and gaining HubSpot buy-in, the ability to strategically consult on business processes and adaption of the HubSpot tools, product demo's and trainings, and customer escalations and technical trouble-shooting. Beyond consulting, this role has given me a deeper understanding of HubSpot internal Order Management, Billing and Collections processes, Contract creation and Renewal negotiation, and experience with leading demos as it pertains to Cross-Sell/Upsell identification, conversation, and growth planning
