Kailey joined Vixio as a young Client Value Specialist, transitioning from a different industry. In her first year, she demonstrated resilience, overcoming the challenges of adapting to a new business landscape and learning to collaborate effectively with internal teams.

Kailey: Since July 2022, Kailey has demonstrated exceptional growth and performance within her role at Vixio. One of her most notable achievements has been driving a significant increase in renewal rates. Partnering with her account manager, she successfully raised renewal rates by 5% year-over-year, pushing them beyond 90%, a critical KPI for the company. Kailey also collaborated extensively with the product team, completing product analyst calls for every Tier 1 account in her portfolio—an accomplishment that underscores her proactive approach and strong interdepartmental collaboration.
In addition to these measurable results, Kailey has taken on more leadership responsibilities, independently managing customer-facing tasks such as onboarding, quarterly business reviews, and supporting renewal calls. Her initiative and dedication to client success led to her promotion to Senior Client Value Specialist in mid-2024, a clear acknowledgement of her growing potential and impact on the business. These achievements highlight Kailey’s ability to deliver consistent value to both her clients and the internal teams she works with.
For these reasons and more, Kailey won Vixio's Best in Class Buyer Experience Award for 2023 at the company's 2024 Sales Kick Off.

Kailey’s achievements are particularly significant due to her rapid adaptation to a new industry and her ability to consistently outperform expectations. In an industry where renewal rates hover around 80-85%, Kailey's success in driving her team’s renewal rates above 90% is a standout achievement. Her proactive approach to learning, combined with her strong collaboration with both internal teams and clients, set her apart from her peers. Many in similar roles struggle to navigate the complexities of internal partnerships early in their careers, but Kailey not only mastered this but also contributed to improving client relationships through product analyst calls with every Tier 1 account in her portfolio.
Compared to her own previous performance, Kailey’s transition from support tasks to leading customer calls and onboarding independently reflects a substantial leap in responsibility and influence. Her promotion to Senior Client Value Specialist within two years is a rare accomplishment in the client value field, showing how she has rapidly grown into a leadership role.
