Portrait of Matthew Davis, smiling, in a business setting

Customer-facing teams, built to scale.

I'm a Customer Experience executive in Montreal, Canada, who has held Head, VP, and Chief Customer Officer roles. With 20 years of leadership experience and eight years in remote global SaaS, I've worked from startup to scale-up, from <$5M to >$25M ARR, building and reshaping post-sales teams at each stage.

I work with founders, C-level, and department leaders on world-class post-sales strategy across Customer Success, Experience, and Support (AI and human). I also turn scaled customer insights and analyses into product, commercial, and strategic decisions.

Post-sales strategy and teams built for each stage

Recurring revenue businesses live or die by whether their revenue actually recurs, month over month and year over year.
I build post-sales teams and product feedback loops that keep revenue recurring and growing.


What I do

Post-sales strategy for growth and change

I redesign Customer Success, Experience, and Support strategy as the company evolves, coach team members through each stage, and create structure and stability for what comes next. I take a customer-centric approach, balance it with company needs, and focus the work on the most impactful changes.

Customer insight at scale

I set up post-sales teams to recognize and capture customer insight at scale, and run evidence-based reports and workshops on risks, opportunities, and friction points. This informs Product roadmaps, commercial decisions, and post-sales strategy, and gives the whole company a clearer picture of its customers.

Global support, AI and human

I build world-class global Customer Support, the kind that differentiates a company from its competition and earns the long-term trust that drives retention. I design and launch AI-assisted support, and lead the move from human-only teams to blended AI and human support.

AI and automations for at-scale management

I've automated customer experience for years, especially for long-tail and mid-market customers, and use AI to automate with far more reach and power. I apply it across customer-facing and internal team work, including Support, Success, enablement, QA, coaching, risk assessment, and forecasting.
