Knownwell
About this episode

Customer acquisition costs are rising, and marketing budgets remain flat. But does that mean fewer customers? Not if the Chief Experience Officer and AI have a say.

In this episode, CMO Courtney Baker is joined by Knownwell’s CEO David DeWolf and Chief Product Officer Mohan Rao. They delve into how AI is transforming customer growth strategies, discussing why AI is crucial for proactive customer success and personalized experiences at scale. They also explore the emerging importance of the Chief Experience Officer in this AI-driven landscape.

Our special guest, Daniel Salvato from NewSpring Capital, sits down with Pete Buer to share how NewSpring's portfolio companies leverage AI to drive growth, from content creation to data visualization and personalized customer outreach. Daniel reveals how mid-market companies can now compete with larger enterprises thanks to accessible AI tools.

In our segment AI in the Wild, Pete discusses the latest news from Apple, including how the revamped Siri is setting the stage for broader AI adoption and user comfort across all devices.
