CSM Coach · Recruiter · Community Builder
I'm a former high-ticket sales professional who transitioned into Customer Success Management — so I know exactly what it feels like to have the skills but not the roadmap. I spent 14 months as a Founder Success Manager inside Founder OS, one of the world's top personal branding programs, working with hundreds of founders globally.
I founded CSM Collective to close the gap between talented people and the CS roles they deserve. The community has grown to 200+ members, and I run free weekly coaching calls open to every member — because great support shouldn't stop after a program ends.
Whether you're my coaching client or a company I'm recruiting for, you work directly with me. No handoffs. No junior team members. Just someone who's been where you are and knows exactly how to get you where you want to go.
From career changers to business owners — here's what working with Jelena looks like.
"The biggest value came from working with my mentor, Jelena. Her guidance is clear, practical, and always tailored to real business situations. She has a strong strategic mindset and helped me better define my priorities and direction. Mentors like Jelena are what truly make the platform valuable."
"Every coaching call with Jelena was truly transformative, and I felt that I was a better version of myself after every coaching session. Since joining, I acquired and retained 4 loyal clients, and gained so much clarity on how to become a more systems-driven professional."
"The MOST VALUABLE part has been the community built in the group calls with Jelena. She has had an incredible influence on developing my mindset and keeping me motivated and supported throughout the journey. Thank you!!!!"
"Shoutout to Jelena for an incredible 1:1 onboarding! I left with a prioritized roadmap and a detailed guide of things to watch, think about, and act on. It exceeded my expectations. Wow, what a great start."
"Two months in, I've already seen measurable results. I launched my first masterclass, had 72 people sign up, brought 100 new LinkedIn followers in one month, and now have six prospects in my pipeline. Two months in, I've already seen measurable results and I know this is just the beginning."
"Working with Jelena and the team has been a game-changer. I went from feeling totally overwhelmed to actually having my stuff together. I've got systems that actually work. I used to feel like I was drowning in my business. Now I feel like I'm actually running it."
"I just got off a sales call for a $55,500 proposal. I've sold this offer before, but through the work I've been doing with Jelena, I raised my prices and my mindset was spot on during this call. Sales calls used to be draining — this one was actually exhilarating."
"74 people signed up for my first-ever workshop — from 13 countries — in just 2 weeks! I had Jelena guiding me with the finer details, and I couldn't have done it without that support. The results speak for themselves."
"Thank you Jelena for a great call! So many hidden gems today. Loved the nuance between switching directions vs. making strategic changes to something we love but isn't working the way it's currently designed."
"Just being on the calls with you made me feel much more optimistic about what I have to offer. Thank you so much."
"You are sooo good at this Jelena, thank you so much. Jelena is the best — I feel very supported and inspired."
"Thanks for this Jelena. It's so nice to see how everyone here is so helpful to each other — it gives you the mindset to move forward fast with validation and the surety of help from experts. Glad to be part of such an inspiring community."
"I just wanted to send a quick note to say how much I appreciate your openness, candor, and grounded energy on today's call. You've been incredibly thoughtful navigating all of the recent transitions, and I really admire the way you're leaning in. Excited to continue to build together!"
"You bring such a steady, thoughtful, and intentional energy to everything you touch — and it's felt by everyone around you. Quietly powerful, insanely detail-oriented, always thinking about what's best for the people. That's rare. And it matters."
"My most tangible change has been at a mindset level, thanks to Jelena's facilitation. The transformation I've gone through during the last weeks is short of magical. I'm excited about what the future brings — thanks for your support and valuable insights!"
"I just finished watching your CSM mastermind call — salute to you. The effort you put in really clarified why I want to be a CSM and what sets a great salesperson apart from a great CSM."
"Thank you so much for all your support this month, and for calling me out when I needed it — especially around sharing wins and posting content. To be honest, I probably wouldn't have written this down if you hadn't kept reminding me. Let's take it to the next level!"
"Jelena — this is so good it makes me feel like crying. For the first time I see the power in my own stories and content and how I can multiply it. I was so overwhelmed at the start but this has opened new possibilities for me. Thank you.. thank you."
"Can't say enough positive things about calls with Jelena. The support and insight she brings is invaluable — every conversation leaves me with a clearer direction."
"Your advice was actually really useful — made me rethink my whole content approach. Most people just ignore cold DMs but you took the time to give real feedback. That kind of generosity is rare. Thank you for that."
"Thank you for taking the time to do that feedback video. It was enlightening — I'll apply those changes immediately. The level of care and detail you put into this is something I didn't expect."
"Thank you, Jelena! You're being an important part of my journey — for various wonderful reasons. What you bring to every call is something truly special. Thank you for this."
