What if your biggest growth opportunity isn't more leads—but keeping the customers you already have?
On this episode of The Pauline Chilton Show, I sit down with Alex Booth, founder of Huckleberry Consulting and GetCSM, to talk about building high-impact customer success systems that drive retention, recurring revenue, and referrals.
With nearly a decade of experience at Amazon and Microsoft, Alex shares how he went from corporate life to global entrepreneurship—now leading two businesses while splitting his time between Mexico and the Philippines.
We dive into:
- What a Customer Success Manager really does (and why it’s not customer support)
- How companies lose momentum after the sale—and what it’s costing them
- The data and tools that matter most when measuring client success
- Why customer experience is a growth engine, not an expense
- A powerful client story about freedom, trust, and stepping out of survival mode
Whether you're in SaaS, service-based business, or scaling a team—this conversation is packed with tactical insights and inspiring real talk.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
