Hi! You’ve reached a topic specifically for folks working through the Program Manager Launch Certification Study Guide. These Program Managers are working toward becoming Gong certified! If you’re a Gong Program Manager and would like to learn more about getting certified, please click here!

 

Hello Program Managers – welcome to the Gong Community! As we talked about in the Academy, being Gong certified means that you’ll visit the Community regularly to connect with other Gong users, help answer questions about Gong, learn from each other, and share your own ideas and best practices. 

 

Another awesome aspect about the Community is that it connects you and other Gong customers directly with Gongsters (i.e., the folks who work at Gong). We pop in all the time to share news, answer questions, provide tips and tricks, and participate in the conversations our customers are having.  

 

Your first assignment for the Launch Certification Study Guide is to answer at least one of the following questions:

  1. What is at least one thing you want to learn while completing the Program Manager Launch Certification Study Guide? 

  2. What is your goal in becoming Launch certified?

  3. What is one takeaway you’re hoping to gain from the Program Manager Launch Certification?

 

(If you want to answer more than one, that’s okay—feel free to share as much as you’d like!)

 

Congrats on tackling the first of your Community assignments! Feel free to pop back over to Gong Academy when you’re finished to keep learning. 

My goal in becoming certified is to increase my understanding of Gong and how to leverage it to align with key business objectives and goals. 


Hello all!

I am excited to be moving through the Gong certification program. My company onboarded Gong before I arrived on the scene, but I’ve been asked to take over as the main POC/administrator for our Marketing and Sales teams. My goal in taking the full course is to walk away with a comprehensive understanding of the system so I can confidently build out process and libraries both strategically and quickly.


What is your goal in becoming Launch Certified?

I’m looking to deepen my knowledge of the Gong platform, and take my learnings into day-to-day conversations with customers in hopes of adding more value and ensuring they are able to get the most out of the platform to see success in their business endeavors.


My goal in being Program Launch Certified is to be confident that I know the best utilization to maximize our company’s efficiency when using Gong. I am a new hire within my company and from a company perspective, they have not been using Gong for long. I have been tasked with optimizing our usage and creating a strategy for the team. Being certified will hopefully put me on the right path. 


As a Customer Success Manager, I support Program Managers in a very important way.  My goal of this Cert is to better understand how I can support their initiatives and positive outcomes.


We’ve had Gong for almost a year and I want to make sure that we are utilizing it to its utmost ability. The takeaway I am hoping to gain is mainly understanding all of Gongs robust capabilities and how they can help improve our sales process and track results. Also, how we can turn this insightful data into tactical actions for sales and successfully relay the operational plan to the sales organization. 


My goal by becoming Launch Certified is to become a better CSM by understanding what my customers are going through!


I am super excited about this certification! My goal is to continue my education and knowledge base of Gong’s features. It is so important for me to ensure my customer’s feel confident in managing their Gong instance longterm, and this certification will not only help me level up my skills, but my customers as well.


Learning never stops.  My goal is to become intimately familiar with the program manager’s experience so that I can better support their ability to drive impact and results with Gong’s platform. 


  1. What is at least one thing you want to learn during the Program Manager Launch Certification? How to improve engagement & usage rates of Gong in my organisation.

  2. What is your goal in becoming Launch Certified? Demonstrate mastery of the product and its application in our business!

  3. What is one take away you’re hoping to gain from the Program Manager Launch Certification? A sense of community and a peer/support group who I can turn to to help solve problems (and in turn, whom I can serve too).


I am interesting in learning more about how others encourage adoption of Gong as part of their sales process and enablement strategies as well as how to get the most out of insights for my sales leaders.  


What is your goal in becoming Launch Certified? 

 

As a CSM at Gong, my main focus is in helping customers post launch and implementation realize their business goals and make impact within their revenue teams. However, the ability to push the needle in their business with Gong starts with a solid launch and implementation. I’m hoping to leverage the knowledge from this certification as a piece of the strategy I use to inform customers on how we can crush their business priorities together! 


So excited about this certification! My goal is becoming launch certified is to continue to stay up to date on all our best practices for rolling out and driving the adoption of Gong - especially in an enablement role, I want to make sure we are drinking our own champagne and applying what we advise our customers on to our internal usage of Gong as well!


Hi all!

What is your goal in becoming Launch Certified?

I’m looking to learn as much as possible about Gong so I can best support our revenue users and the business in leveraging Gong to it’s potential and getting the most insight out of the tool as possible!


My goal in becoming certified is to learn the product well so I can understand how to better support our customers.


I want to really learn all the facets, workflows and feature sets that can help customers achieve success. If I can understand it and complete, I can better help Gong customers do the same.

My goal is to achieve a thorough understand of the PM mind in regards to Gong and honestly it will give me a structured learning with a targeted achievement. 

One takeaway is to have my eyes open to how there are multiple other ways of thinking about value from the platform. Typically we only see a handful of ways to use something, I want to experience other ways to do things, enabling better conversations with everyone I talk to about Gong.


My goal in this certification is to become a subject matter expert in Gong and refresh my memory of courses i have previously taken in Gong academy. I plan to go slowly and intentionally through the content to make sure i havent missed anything along the way.


As someone who has never used Gong in past roles, my main goal is to identify areas I am comfortable supporting, but more importantly identify areas that I need to focus my learning.  


I am excited to take up the course.

The key goal for me is to understand how can I can ensure that we are fully using our Gong functionality to its full capabilities. 


My goals for the Program Manager Launch Certification..

  • What is at least one thing you want to learn during the Program Manager Launch Certification? 

    • Deeper understanding of feature/functionality w/in Gong, and how to exert maximum value for my organization.

  • What is one take away you’re hoping to gain from the Program Manager Launch Certification?

    • Optimize building folders/streams


What is your goal in becoming Launch Certified?

Since I am new to Gong, my goal is to gain the knowledge and confidence to successfully adopt this tool for our Account Development and Sales organizations. 


My goal in becoming launch certified is to enhance credibility internally and externally as a Gong expert. 


As a CSM, I get the privilege of partnering with many organizations and with that comes a diverse spread of individuals at each organization.  With the PM Certification under my belt, I will better be able to partner with my PMs and support them by gaining a better understanding of their role. Also, I rarely recommend something to my customers if I haven’t done it myself.   I want all of my PMs to get certified, so I need to do it first! 


What is your goal in becoming Launch Certified?

It's all about smooth enablement and proving value. Though having implemented Gong for one team already, we have more teams and more power users getting on board, so need to make sure if this certification is something that will streamline our approach for the best end result.


I would love to be the main point of contact in regards to any issues related to Gong. I want to learn how to do proper troubleshooting before creating ticket with the support team.
