Here's how
we fix it.
The structure problem has a solution. It's called the EVOLVE Framework™.
Most CS teams are built on instinct and inherited process. The EVOLVE Framework™ replaces that with a deliberate, proven system, one that turns reactive account management into a retention and expansion engine. Built from 14 years of doing this inside real SaaS companies, not from a whiteboard.
Few words from previous clients
"Some things were going great and some I was working on improving but what I didn’t know I needed was another person "in the room". The meetings Kristi and I have consistently deliver new opportunities, reassure me in difficult situations, and uncover blind spots. Must have for executive leaders."
Marius Laza
CCO, Tidio
"Kristi's inspiring guidance was instrumental as I stepped into a new director role and tackled an organization-wide transformation. Her keen auditing skills and strategic insights empowered me to excel in record time. I deeply value her leadership and highly recommend her to anyone looking to elevate their customer success expertise."
Francesca Jabbour
Director of CS, LeaseCake
"As we transformed our Customer Success team, we brought in Kristi Faltorusso for an on-site training workshop. Her expertise, insights, and resources were invaluable, equipping our team to embrace change with confidence. Kristi’s impact was immediate and lasting—we highly recommend her to any organization looking to elevate their CS practice."
Brenda Salce-Garcia
VP of CS, Madhive
“Kristi Faltorusso’s training at our team retreat delivered exceptional value and immediately actionable insights. Her session was transformative, combining strategic frameworks with practical tools we could use right away. The real-world examples and case studies made the content relatable, credible, and directly applicable to our own client relationships.”

The Heart of Business Impact is CS
Customer Success is more than a function, it’s the driving force that transforms relationships into retention, insights into growth, and partnerships into measurable business outcomes.
Here's Where I Come In
Most CS teams are built on hope and inherited processes. I fix that.
I work with founders and CS leaders at Series A–C SaaS companies through consulting, advisory, and coaching, building the structure, systems, and skills that turn Customer Success into a reliable growth function.
Built for your business. Not someone else's.
The framework is proven. The application is yours.
Every Series A–C SaaS company has different customers, different teams, and different gaps. The EVOLVE Framework™ gives us the structure — but how we deploy it is built around your specific business, your stage, and what's actually breaking down. No copy-paste. No one-size-fits-all. Just the right system, built for how you operate.


Hey there,
I'm Kristi
I'm a CCO-turned-consultant who has built Customer Success organizations from the ground up, five times, inside real B2B SaaS companies. I've seen what breaks, what scales, and what actually drives retention. Now I help Series A–C founders and CS leaders build the infrastructure to make it all predictable. No fluff. No theory. Just the work.
