Customer Advocacy Marketing Manager
Posted Updated
Description
- The Customer Advocacy Marketing Manager owns both the strategy and scaled production of customer proof-point content: case studies, customer quotes and testimonials, logo usage and compliance, and the customer reviews program (G2, Gartner Peer Insights, TrustRadius)
- This role also owns the Customer Awards program, on-site customer content capture (video/filming) at flagship events, and the review-platform vendor relationships and budget
- The ideal candidate can set a proof-point content roadmap and prioritize it against business impact, not just execute a queue — while also running a high-volume content operation end-to-end, from sourcing through legal and customer approval
- This role partners closely with our Senior Manager who owns high-touch programs like our CAB, Executive Sponsorship, RKO, and customer community
- Define the annual case study and proof-point content roadmap in partnership with Product Marketing, aligned to revenue and pipeline priorities
- Determine which customer stories, quotes, and proof points to pursue based on expected pipeline, bookings, and adoption impact, rather than a first-in-first-out intake queue
- Own the scaled creation and end-to-end delivery of customer content — quotes, testimonials, and case studies — from sourcing through legal and customer approval
- Use tools like Peerbound to transform customer insights from Gong calls into approved, actionable content at scale
- Own the creation and promotion of customer spotlights
- Manage updates to existing case studies and customer stories as messaging and strategy evolve
- Own the customer reference database and the review-generation program across platforms including G2, Gartner Peer Insights, and TrustRadius
- Own vendor relationships and budget for review platforms, including contract renewals and spend decisions
- Own the end-to-end process for customer logo usage, ensuring adherence to contract terms and legal/brand compliance
- Own the customer awards program on a recurring annual cadence: nominee sourcing, winner selection coordination, winner notification, awards production, and integration into the event schedule
- Own on-site video filming and customer engagement logistics at flagship events, including building the customer filming schedule and securing signed participation agreements ahead of the event
- Own and continuously refine the end-to-end content workflow, from intake to publication
- Project manage creation, review, and approval processes for all customer proof-point assets
- Track and report on the performance and business impact of proof-point content (pipeline, bookings, adoption influence)
- Deliver regular reporting to stakeholders and feed the consolidated advocacy narrative owned by the Advocacy Programs Senior Manager
- Maintain proactive communication with Sales, CS, Product Marketing, and Legal
- Serve as the point of contact and escalation path for each owned initiative; surface project risks before they affect a deadline
