Recurring Revenue, Real-World Results – Closing the Post-Sale Gap with Beth Skierski

Описание: Recurring revenue models are everywhere. But recurring value is still where many subscription, SaaS, and IoT businesses struggle.

In this episode of The Climate Gap: Quick Cuts, Ben Muwoki sits down with Beth Skierski, founder of EGS Solutions, to explore why Customer Success often falls short and how companies can close the post-sale gap that quietly drives churn.

Across climate tech, smart buildings, and enterprise SaaS, many teams invest heavily in product, sales, and onboarding. What happens after the contract is signed is often handled informally, reactively, or inconsistently. This is especially true for project-led businesses moving into subscriptions and IoT vendors shifting into software models.

Beth shares a practical framework for treating the post-sale journey as something that can be deliberately designed, measured, and improved.

In this episode, we cover:

Why recurring revenue is an operating challenge, not just a pricing decision
The difference between reactive account management and true Customer Success
How to design a proactive customer journey that supports adoption and outcomes
Why renewals are lagging indicators, and what leading indicators matter more
How IoT and hardware-led businesses can avoid common mistakes when moving into software
What customer health really looks like beyond renewals and dashboards

If you are scaling a SaaS business, transitioning from project delivery to subscriptions, or leading Customer Success, Revenue, or GTM teams, this episode offers grounded, real-world insight into what actually drives retention and expansion.
