GoodMouth is pleased to announce Tien Tzuo, Founder and CEO of Zuora, has joined its Advisory Board.
“Tien is widely recognized as a leader in the Subscription Economy. Shifting from business models previously focused on bottom lines or units shipped, Tien clearly understands that in order to succeed in the long run, subscriptions must be based on exceptional customer experiences. Tien’s experience and success building Zuora from the ground up will be an immediate asset to GoodMouth and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with him,” explains Craig Lifschutz, GoodMouth’s Founder and CEO.
“The power of subscriptions represents a major shift in the market – the evolution from ‘owning’ to ‘subscribing’ has reinvented nearly every industry – from transportation to retail, healthcare to education, and so on,” said Tien Tzuo, Founder and CEO of Zuora. “With new toothbrushes delivered to the door monthly, GoodMouth has given users the latest tools in the quest for oral hygiene and, in the process, reinvented an industry. I’m honored to join the board of advisors and to help provide guidance for this dynamic company as it prepares for continued growth.”
