London

&nbsp;Drinks to follow downstairs at The White Haus Pub after the event!! Join us!Let’s be honest: AI hype is deafening, and most of it has nothing to do with the realities of customer marketing or advocacy.That changes here.Join a roomful of B2B customer marketing and advocacy pros&nbsp;in London for a hands-on, no-fluff session focused on how AI is&nbsp;actually&nbsp;being used to drive smarter programs, stronger customer stories, and more impact, without needing a PhD or a brand-new tech stack.Ahead of the session, you’ll submit one real challenge or task you're facing—something you’d love to hand off to AI. On the day,&nbsp;Jeff Ernst, CEO of SlapFive, will kick things off with “Beyond the Buzz: Real AI for Real Customer Marketers”, weaving your submissions into a sharp, fast-paced discussion of what’s working (and what’s not).Then we’ll split into small working groups to roll up our sleeves and tackle use cases that matter, together.This isn’t a product pitch or a parade of theory.&nbsp;It’s a working session for pros who are ready to move from buzzwords to better workflows, and have a pint while they’re at it.

Beyond the Buzz: Real AI for Real Customer Marketers

<h3>From support to strategy: How AI, product alignment, and CS reinvention drive sustainable competitive advantage.</h3>In today’s hyper-competitive, AI-disrupted market, Customer Success is no longer a function to manage—it’s an advantage to engineer. Yet too many companies still treat CS as a reactive support role, disconnected from product, go-to-market, and strategic growth initiatives. That thinking no longer works—and it’s costing businesses trust, expansion, and long-term competitiveness.In this C-suite-focused webinar, Rob Ciampa and Eric Peterson will outline what it takes to reimagine Customer Success as a strategic growth engine. Rob will explore how CS, when deeply aligned with product development, onboarding, and post-MVP realities, becomes the differentiator that competitors can’t replicate. Eric will share how CS organizations must evolve—operationally and culturally—to integrate with marketing, sales, and product, while embracing AI and moving beyond legacy metrics like NPS and VoC.This is a wake-up call for executive leaders: the companies that win tomorrow are rebuilding Customer Success today. This isn’t about churn mitigation. It’s about engineering a competitive edge that lasts.<ol><li data-list="bullet">Why Customer Success is becoming the key differentiator in competitive strategy</li><li data-list="bullet">How leading companies embed CS into product, onboarding, and post-sale execution</li><li data-list="bullet">What’s replacing legacy metrics like NPS and VoC in AI-powered environments</li><li data-list="bullet">How to align CS, product, sales, and marketing to drive trust, growth, and defensibility</li></ol>
