And I'm like, well, why? Well, it's Vogue. So I'm just curious, because if I'm a user of another platform, how do I know when the flip happens? How do I know where I'm going to get the value as someone that might use that moving forward?

And I really like that explanation. Inevitably, you know, there's a lower cost of retaining customers. There's a greater return of growing customers as well, right? And, you know, we work so hard to acquire. Well, what platforms are we really prioritizing to enable customers I'm a user of one of those platforms as referenced from pre-sale. And I agree, the functionality is dreadful.

And I think sometimes my cynical self goes, hmm, do they just not develop that just to really infuriate me and keep me sort of level locked in their platform? Because I always want more. Like, it's just, I don't know, maybe that's just my crazy mind thinking there. But it's great to hear about how PlanHack can help with one of the most important aspects and being client centric.

I completely agree with you. Coming from a pre-sales, sales era and sales directorship, customer service was the term that was heard. Then I came into this world of customer success. But in professional services, it's called client partners. And what I'm curious about, Chris, is partnerships is a mutually beneficial end goal, right? It has to be a win-win. We talk about that in a lot of worlds.

It's not about win-lose or lose-win. So if you had a choice, you've referenced CS, customer success, probably not being, or come from a certain origin, but what would you call it if you had a choice, if you don't want me to ask you?

So the solution to that challenge then from your expertise, what is the answer to that? And so there's a lot of work that goes on for this use case. So not only is a platform required to help with that transition of decline to growth, but there's also a people and cultural shift that's required. There's also a capability and skills element. There's a hiring FTE future plan.
