🐾  Rapid Growth Created a CX Strain They Couldn’t Ignore

Frenchie, the cult-favorite brand making harnesses designed just for French Bulldogs, was scaling fast. But so were the challenges:

  • Support queries poured in from email, phone, and Instagram comments
  • Agents were juggling multiple tools, losing time and context
  • As order volume grew, repetitive questions overwhelmed their team
  • Customers expected 24/7 replies — but Frenchie couldn’t afford to scale headcount
  • A major product launch was just days away, adding even more pressure

They needed a solution that delivered fast, consistent, and scalable support—without sacrificing quality.

🛑 Too Many Channels, Too Few Answers

Frenchie’s team faced the classic scaling dilemma:

  • No unified view across support channels
  • Agents answering the same product/order questions again and again
  • Manual replies ate into time better spent on high-value customers
  • No tech lead or project manager to manage a complex tool
  • A growing fan base with high expectations and low patience for slow replies

They stumbled upon Richpanel — and despite an upcoming product launch in 4 days — they dove in.

🎯 The Goal: Delight Customers at Scale Without Expanding Headcount

What Frenchie needed:

  • A single, easy-to-use tool to unify all support channels
  • Self-service flows that answered repetitive questions instantly
  • Smart automation that still felt personal
  • A platform that was quick to set up and agent-friendly
  • Better CX metrics to fuel long-term loyalty

❓ "No Tech Lead, No Problem" — Frenchie’s Team Was Ready in Minutes

Even without technical support in-house:

  • Richpanel’s CS team handled setup and training pre-launch
  • Agents were fully onboarded in time for a major product drop
  • Automation rules handled global customer queries, 24/7
  • The team had a single source of truth — easy to use, and nice to look at
