Welcome
Welcome to the October 2012 edition of the FT Word. Feel free to forward it to your colleagues. (They can get their own subscription.)
Topics for this month:
- Mobile support – the return of the elusive FT indicator (remember it?) on how tablets are multiplying (are you ready?)
- Fighting the backlog monster – another return, of a long-time favorite
- Lies, damned lies, and ROI – an excerpt from my presentation at Dreamforce
FT Works in the News
Spoke at DreamForce!
Thanks to all of you who showed up for my presentation, which I fondly call Lies, Damned Lies, and ROI. Read all about it here.
Curious about something? Send me your suggestions for topics — or add one in the comments — and your name will appear in future newsletters. I’m thinking of doing a compilation of “tips and tricks about support metrics” in the coming months so if you have favorites, horror stories, or questions about metrics, please don’t be shy.
Regards,
Françoise Tourniaire
