Create Manual Relationship CTAs

Gainsight NXT

 

Overview

A Relationship is an object in Gainsight that provides you with the flexibility to accurately model and manage your complex customer structures by creating Relationship Types and Relationships. Relationships take Customer Success beyond managing companies and help Customer Success manage each connection point (Relationship) with your customer. Gainsight offers a flexible way to define what a relationship is based on a variety of criteria including products, business units, geographies, or projects.

IMPORTANT: You can create relationships with Gainsight objects, as long as a Company lookup field is available.

CSMs can create CTAs for Relationships from Customer/Relationship 360 > Cockpit. Also, under the Cockpit, you can search for relationships and group CTAs by Relationships. This functionality is available only if your org has enabled Relationships.

For more information, refer to the Relationships article.
