But we went fully remote last quarter and tightened escalations: every key-customer case gets a ‘single-threaded owner’ in Salesforce with a 48-hour SLA before it hits the director — no dogpiles, no guesswork. , nothing stalls faster than five people CC’d and nobody owning it; if you try this, add a Slack webhook so timezone handoffs don’t blow the SLA. Anyone else using Zendesk or Front for the same playbook?
