Been on a bit of a learning kick this week:

- Doing a free course on Google Ads (not sure if I am going to use this for a marketing experiment but it is interesting)

- Almost to 100 hours of comprehensible input for Spanish (been working towards this for months, excited for the milestone)

Reworked our pricing page to something I think is much more intuitive

It ain't fancy but I'm proud of how it turned out

Been hearing for 3 years how AI will replace my human support service and yet people keep hiring us 🤷‍♀️

Most see it as a differentiator now to have an empathetic, human team helping customers in a world where corporate support is overrun with chatbots
This is part of the reason AI customer service is unlikely to completely take over. There's always going to be a competitive advantage in actually listening to customers. For some situations, that's not important (or the co. doesn't care), but often it still is. seths.blog/2025/09/to-b...
To be heard
Big company customer service has evolved to be pointless, a useless shadow of its former self. Big companies can’t take responsibility, only humans can. And when we depersonalize our interact…

Communication is key! When people hear back from a real, empathetic person that the issue is being work on it totally changes the game. Even if you haven't been able to fix the problem quite yet.
As a SaaS founder you’re also tech support.

Users forgive bugs, they don’t forgive silence.

💡 Reply fast, even if you don’t have the fix yet.

What’s the weirdest support ticket you’ve ever received?

"Hi - I'm in a bind where the web page I have isn't working and my programming AI is saying it's this issue. Might you be able to help me decipher this?"

My least favorite type of customer support ticket. Consistently includes made-up features and incorrect steps.

every time I login and quickbooks has made an update a little bit of me dies inside
it's incredible how every update intuit makes to quickbooks online makes the user interface worse. i thought it was already the worst it could be but somehow they have done the impossible and made it even harder to navigate! honestly impressed

If you think your customer inbox is bad, just know there is always someone else out there who has it worse

I'm completing this audit right now but am struggling to not just immediately start responding to customers - I want to help!

One of the weirdest (but most fun parts) of running Evergreen Support is embedding myself into totally different businesses that I have never considered before and learning all their lingo and quirks

Today I am learning what part of a ring is the "shank" - never thought I'd need to know that

Them: So your website says you do 'human support' - but you actually use AI behind the scenes right?

Me: Nope, no AI

Them: But you write software... why use humans?

Me: Cause I prefer human support over AI

Them: I don't understand 🤯

Personal Pet Peeve: When the AI "summary" is just as long as the original email

3 years in on Evergreen Support and I still have (many) days where I think to myself:

"why didn't I think of a process/standard for this before? the way we've been doing it is so disorganized"

😅

Fun to see that Evergreen Support now has team members in 7 US states and 2 countries (US & Mexico)

Here's a perfect example of why I won't outsource customer support to AI:

I ask: "Do you have this feature?"

<AI confidently responds: "Yes, we have that feature!">

<Human agent comes on: "Sorry, disregard that AI answer. That's wrong. We don't have that feature.">

Learn to solder and get this awesome badge at ISTE 2025 🚀
We're heading to an educator conference at the end of the month, hoping to teach some STEM teachers to solder at our booth.

After being inspired by what other's have done with @oshpark.bsky.social's after dark, I threw together the design for a sick new soldering badge with twinkling LED stars.

Got an itty bitty couch for the office and I'm kinda obsessed with it

Gonna get some electronic component design throw pillows to go with it
