Hear from some of our past Champions about their program experience: ![:loud_sound: 🔊](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/png/1f50a.png?v=2.2.7)
“So good to connect with other passionate Klaviyo experts and share ideas! oThe 1-1 connections within the cohort] are a huge value of the Champions program!
“eI’d recommend the Champions program because] I have learned a lot about the product, the market and meet peers in similar industries (and some that are not) where we have shared our own insights which has grown my personal and professional skill set. This has been an amazing opportunity.”
“The value in this program is to showcase yourself as an expert to Klaviyo's user base. That exposure is extremely valuable to a business, especially if it brings in new clients/revenue. I think it's also valuable to see what questions are coming up where other Champions are the experts so you can better educate yourself as a super user of the platform.”
“As a Klaviyo practitioner, I've learned from the other Champions and been inspired by their contribution and knowledge. As an agency owner, the Community has helped me build more empathy and awareness of the daily challenges of merchants and other Klaviyo professionals in the space.”
“Although I expected to share my knowledge, I think I learned just as much, if not more. Community engagement and visibility has contributed to some leads and opportunities/exposures I would otherwise not have as a smaller agency.”
“I really enjoy the monthly calls and camaraderie of other like-minded Klaviyo professionals who are also Klaviyo experts. It's nice to be highlighted and recognized for our efforts and contributions.”
“It's been a huge plus to be able to advertise my Champion membership on our branding collateral in addition to being a Klaviyo Agency Partner. This gives our sales team some more "ammunition" when speaking to prospective clients. The added visibility on the Community forum has also been great for brand awareness for us.”
“eThis program has] continued to expand my personal knowledge on the Klaviyo platform, and with Email & SMS best practices. As an agency, we feel better connected with the Klaviyo team, and are more informed on upcoming events and platform updates.”
