Our Purpose nests well in the overall Purpose of the Customer Success Movement—the Movement that we serve at Gainsight. Customer Success is fundamentally about realizing that your customer is not a transaction or a deal or an opportunity or a lead. Your customer is a bunch of human beings just like you. And just like you, they want to succeed with what they do.

In a way, Customer Success, and Gainsight, are about bringing humanity back into this technology-driven world.

If you're like us, the businesses you return to over and over do two things every time:

That's how our economy was built. Your local store owner helped you find exactly what you needed. Your travel agent knew the perfect trip for you. And once upon a time, your blacksmith knew how to fit your horse’s foot just right. And all with a heavy portion of innovation and creativity.

But with the pace of change that digital technology has brought to these ancient relationships, we've lost something. We've added more and more layers of separation between businesses and consumers—automated checkouts, self-serve websites, one-to-many communication, and now we even have chatbots. How do we maintain and advance the convenience and scalability that technology delivers while building back up those deep, long-lasting relationships between buyer and seller?

Gainsight exists to help businesses secure and surpass their customers' desired outcomes and deliver consistently amazing experiences. We do that by orchestrating all of companies' customer-facing teams and data together into simple, actionable dashboards and playbooks. Our powerful software platform and evidence-based best practices give you the power to gain insight from customer data so you can take the right actions at the right time to maximize your customer relationships.

Nick Mehta

He's a big believer in the Golden Rule and we try to apply it as much as we can to bring more compassion to our interactions with others. And he talks way too fast and overuses the word awesome like it's going out of style. Before coming to Gainsight, Nick was the CEO of awesome leading Software-as-a-Service E-Discovery provider LiveOffice through its acquisition by Symantec and prior to that was a Vice President at VERITAS Software and Symantec Corporation.
