# Interview with Erika
Tough admin, used enablement and creativity to make it work
Created multiple workspaces for the users for that account
Client's issue was didn't want to manage multiple accounts, had no bandwidth
Used teaching to help the customer
Needier customers were district contracts
Gave her her phone number to client who wanted instant communication
Setup regular checkins with these accounts
More frequent communication for larger clients
Tiered system, small team and each person handled almost 700 accounts
Just taking the time explain
Being an AM was her most enjoyable, creative time
Tight knit group
Constant communication
Project Question:
Go to learning library, resources first
See what's available first
Try to connect with client and asking more questions
Align with them, is there a temporary fix
Check in with peers and see if anyone else has faced this issue before
Is there a bridge to solve this temporarily
Being honest and aligning with the customer
Offer to pushback
Catalyst for CS with client
# Interview with Matt
Works at Proliant
The software "leaves a lot to be desired"
Doesn't have good developers and it goes offline a few hours each day
Service is really good, reps are good
But they are always defending product
Developers always leave after 3 months, high turn over
All payroll companies have a lot of turn over
UI/UX isn't great either
Strong relationship with director
If Clients are pissed, how do you respond?
Answers with a smile and never talks bad about the product or developers
Takes on risk with approvals and 2-day turn around time
Says "I'm going to send you an email by 2pm"
Has an answer to everything, speaks confidently
Account manager @ ADP/Viventium - Dedicated for the contract length
Implementation Specialist - just during implementaiton
He would try to get someone's attention on skype or zoom to see if someone is online
He would apologize to client and say its after hours
Would see what he could do - review implementation guide (500 pages)
Support Docs
Said his current job is he has to figure it out himself
He can't contact his manager for every small request
Says he is self sufficient
After that would contact Service Support Specialist, or his manager
"It's all about giving the client something to make some space"
## Questions for me?
One question - what would I say is the biggest challenge? - Punching above our weight class
