Customer.io Experts

Talk to mentors from these amazing companies

David Kelly

General Manager
I recently helped a new SaaS product set up their first marketing automation process using Customer.io. This includes setting up the initial framework, creating the account, and configuring the marketing automations inside of Customer.io directly. I've done the work myself, so I don't just talk about "theoreticals" — I can share exactly how to do it because I've done it, too.

I am using customer.io for setting up and optimizing our lifecycle marketing activities that include automated campaigns aimed at user retention and conversion, as well as mass sendouts.

Customer.io is my favorite marketing automation tool – the most powerful yet simple to use. I believe that marketing automation platforms like Customer.io represent the new era of CRMs. I use them as one source of data and communications with customers. When you pipe all the relevant data into the marketing automation platform, you will find out how many cool automations you can build.

Three choices:

  • Skype
  • Zoom
  • Google Hangouts

Mentors and mentees are able to set their communication tools in their profile settings.

It is a good idea to connect with the other person once the session is accepted and the details are given. This ensures that the correct details were given and when it is time to start, you can start on time.

Here are some tips on how to get the maximum bang for your time on growth mentor calls.

  • Come into this with realistic expectations. They’re mentors, not magicians.
  • Ask your mentor if they’d be cool with you recording your screen with Loom
  • Give contextual information to help paint the picture of your current situation.
  • Growth mentors will be asking you lots of questions, answer them as honest as possible.
  • Don’t be afraid to push the boundaries of question asking. Be inquisitive. Stories are gold.
  • Don’t feel pressure, just relax. There’s no right/wrong way to do this. Avoid binary thinking.
  • Try to form mental patterns, especially if you speak with multiple mentors. Pay attention to metadata.
  • Embrace alternative views. Ask the mentors to play devil’s advocate and challenge your assumptions.
  • Be friendly and authentic. If you’re likable, the mentors will be your biggest supporters (even after the call is over).

Yup! Many of the mentors offer monthly coaching packages for members who want to really dive deep into a specific area.

Each mentor creates their own package so what they offer and the price vary from mentor to mentor. You can find their coaching info at the top of their profile.
