From customer
to fan.

As an expert in customer contact, you determine whether a customer stays, grows and recommends others. That impact is commercial gold, even without a sales role.

I am your trainer, Klaas Kroezen, author of ‘Van klant naar fan’ and the bestseller ‘Sales, Oprecht & Ontspannen’, with 25+ years of international B2B experience.

What it costs to
leave it as is.

Every customer who quietly leaves is growth you won't get back. This approach changes that, conversation by conversation.

  • Customers who cancel before you noticed they were doubting.
  • Growth left untapped because no one starts the conversation.
  • Your team firefights instead of working ahead.
  • Satisfied customers who never become ambassadors.

What you take away.
From customer to fan.

Based on my book Van klant naar fan, applied to customer contact. The difference: in the training you put it into practice right away, with your own customers. A taste of what you'll take away:

01

Why your customer contact is commercial gold, and how to claim that role.

02

How to spot customer signals early and act on them in a relaxed way.

03

How to handle difficult conversations, from price increases to disappointment, so the relationship actually grows stronger.

04

How to see and name opportunities, simply by helping your customer well.

05

How to turn customers into fans and ambassadors who actively recommend you.

06

Lasting results: with the Customer Experience Model you keep improving, even after the training.

Training with your team? Then we also work on unity: one language and one approach for everyone in contact with customers.

Every programme is different.
We map the route together.

We start just as often with an inspiration session on location as with the online theory. Together we look at what delivers the most for you or your team. Always tailored.

01

Getting to know each other

We begin with a no-obligation conversation or an inspiration session on location. Together we discover where the most customer value is left untapped.

02

Your tailored track

We build the programme together: theory online where it helps, the training on location with your own customer cases.

03

Apply & keep improving

You turn customers into fans, and keep a grip on your customer experience with our Customer Experience Model. You keep improving after the training too.

Klaas Kroezen, trainer and author of Van klant naar fan

You get the training directly from me, Klaas Kroezen, author of ‘Van klant naar fan’ and the bestseller ‘Sales, Oprecht & Ontspannen’, from the first call to the last session. From my own company I sold to brands like Google, Microsoft, ING and Samsung. What I learned there about turning customers into fans, I now share with teams and people like you.

This is how you see the difference.

Yourself, your customer and your team.

You score yourself, and your customer and your colleagues look along on the same six elements. Where the views differ is your biggest opportunity. This is what it looks like:

More than a training.
Ask your customers, colleagues and Klaas AI for feedback.

You have a full year of access. Most participants complete the training in 4 to 6 weeks. After that, they measure themselves once a month and make concrete action plans. On top of that, you ask customers, colleagues and Klaas AI to rate you, as often as you like. So you see how others experience you, where you are growing and what your next step is. And it works best with your whole team.

Yourself

Visible progress

You record your starting point and measure again after the training. At a glance you see what has improved.

Your customers

What your customer really thinks

Customers rate you in ten minutes. You hear what they value and what they want more of. And they notice their opinion counts.

Your colleagues

Your blind spots in view

Colleagues who see you work with customers share their view. Where their picture differs from yours is where your biggest growth lies.

Klaas AI

Feedback on every conversation

Submit an important customer conversation and get concrete tips for next time, straight away.

After the training: every month again. 1% better every day.

  1. Measure. Once a month, or after an important conversation.
  2. Compare. All feedback side by side, in one overview.
  3. Improve. You make a concrete action plan, apply it and measure again.

The result: customers who stay longer, do more with you and become fans.

Questions?
We're happy to help.

You turn customers into fans with genuine attention for the people who are already your customers. That is exactly what you learn in the Customer Success Training: retaining and growing existing customers.

From customer to fan means customers buy from you and also root for you and recommend you. It is the theme Klaas Kroezen builds all his trainings on: more revenue, less stress, real fans. In the Customer Success Training you learn how to do that, specifically for people without a sales role who do have customer contact.

For people without a sales role who do have customer contact: customer success managers, service desks, account managers and consultants. A sales background is exactly what you don't need.

It depends entirely on your ambition. The more time you put in, the better your result. You get 3.5 hours of video. On top of that you work through the assignments in the workbook, score yourself, ask your customers and colleagues for feedback and practise with Klaas AI. You have a year of access, with a reminder on the first of every month to look back and score yourself again. If you choose personal guidance, two half-days are added: the kick-off and the final presentation.

Yes. Almost everything is tailored: you cover the theory online at your own pace, and we spend the on-location sessions entirely on your own customer practice. You also always train directly with me.

More retention, more growth with existing customers and customers who actively recommend you. Every customer who quietly leaves is growth you won't get back. Turning customers into fans builds predictable revenue, with less stress.

Yes. Your team does the training online and I guide the kick-off and the final presentation, at my place on the Duin en Bosch estate in Castricum or at your location. With your team it starts from € 6,000 (excl. VAT). Get in touch and I'll put together a proposal. Want to get to know the approach first? Start with a 2.5-hour inspiration session (€ 3,750) or an inspiration day (€ 5,750).

Sales Excellence focuses on winning new customers. Customer Success is about retaining and growing existing customers: from customers to fans. Together they form one method for commercial growth.
