Vice President, Client Solutions at Courier Health

Insights & ideas

Rose Kozar argues that the most overlooked skill for founders is the ability to effectively articulate value, rather than focusing purely on product [1]. Her recurring hot take is that no one cares about the software itself, only about whether it demonstrably makes a customer's life easier or helps them make more money [1]. She stresses that founders must also coach customers to be able to speak to that value themselves, since this reinforcement pays off in future sales motions and recurring revenue [1].

Kozar's central theme is that closing a deal is only the beginning, not the end, of the customer journey, and that founders frequently underinvest in post-sales work because early sales wins feel like a finish line [1]. She champions the quarterly business review (QBR) as a structured, recurring mechanism to review value delivered and plan future value with clients, reframing it not as a burdensome ask but as a mutual win that protects against churn and builds toward an evangelical champion at every client [1].
