SAN MATEO, Calif. — May 12, 2020 — Evisort, the AI contract management startup, today announced that account services veteran Mike Kowal has joined as Head of Customer Success. Kowal will focus on delivering positive client outcomes while businesses adapt to the changing pandemic economy. 

Kowal comes to Evisort with over 25 years experience driving client excellence and generating business growth. He previously led Customer Success for startups including Falcon.io (acquired by Cision), Dotomi (now Conversant) and Button as well as larger companies such as GE, Rakuten and CJ Affiliate.  

Kowal’s appointment reflects Evisort’s intense focus on the customer experience amid rapid growth with enterprises of all sizes. He is the second customer-focused executive to join in the last six months, following Chief Customer Officer Mark Stephenson.
