NRR has become the pressure test for every account management leader who wants to prove they can drive real, sustainable growth.
Alex Raymond is joined by Jennifer Pinter, a longtime operator and advisor who works closely with account management and CS leaders navigating today’s retention-driven market. Together they dig into why net revenue retention now sits at the center of every strategic conversation and why so many teams feel unprepared for the weight it carries. With new logos slowing and early contracts shrinking, companies can’t rely on acquisition to cover weak retention, which pushes account management into a more commercial, outcome-driven role. Jennifer shares what she’s hearing from leaders who now hold explicit NRR targets without the playbooks they need. Their discussion points to the fundamentals that actually move the number: clean ICP discipline, faster time to value, and a value story customers can understand without effort.
Alex and Jennifer highlight how NRR exposes the health of the entire go-to-market engine. Product decisions, sales commitments, financial visibility, and customer outcomes all shape whether accounts renew, expand, or drift away. That reality raises a core question for any leader responsible for revenue: do you have the internal alignment and customer clarity required to build predictable growth? The episode offers a sharp, honest look at the shift happening across the industry and the mindset leaders need as NRR becomes the benchmark for both team maturity and long-term success.
