01 — Challenge
The Problem
Support inbox received 400–600 tickets per week. Support agents spent 70% of their time answering the same questions about pricing, order status, and cancellation policy. Complex cases were delayed because agents were busy with repetitive ones.
- 65% of tickets were the same 5–8 questions every week
- Average first response time: 6+ hours
- Support team of 4 was stretched and burning out
- High-priority cases buried under routine questions
- No ticket classification — everything treated the same
