What was said
What this says
Current to 11 Oct 26Onboarding check-in with Markus Hofmann. Salesforce and Zendesk data loaded cleanly, with about a hundred old tickets unmatched. Training for ten service staff and a soft launch with a few power users follow.
What happened: Markus reported the data loaded, custom Salesforce fields searchable and no refresh problems seen so far. Ollie Pearson proposed flagging the unmatched old tickets as 'no live account' and leaving them.
Customer view: Markus is comfortable with the data and with the plan. He said "That gives me confidence." when told Ollie would be on standby during rollout.
Commercial: Nothing on price or renewal. A clean onboarding supports adoption of the subscription, and the unmatched historical tickets could later feed a dashboard.
Watch: Attendance is not yet confirmed. Markus has to check numbers with a colleague, Lena, and the nightly refresh was not independently confirmed on the call.

Transcript
- Ollie Pearson NoneHi Markus. How are we doing?
- Markus Hofmann NoneGood. Week two's over. I've got the data loaded and we've done a first review.
- Ollie Pearson NoneGreat. What does the data look like? Any gaps?
- Markus Hofmann NoneSalesforce looks clean. Three thousand accounts all came through. Zendesk tickets are all there too. I'm not sure the linking is right though. Some tickets aren't matching to accounts.
- Ollie Pearson NoneHow many are unmatched?
- Markus Hofmann NoneMaybe a hundred out of five thousand three hundred. They're mostly from a few years back, though. Dead accounts.
- Ollie Pearson NoneThat makes sense. Old tickets from accounts you've closed. Is the ninety-five percent of live tickets matching correctly?
- Markus Hofmann NoneYeah, the recent stuff looks right.
- Ollie Pearson NonePerfect. We can flag the unmatched ones as 'no live account' and leave them. You could surface them in a dashboard later if you want historical insight, but they're not going to hurt you.
- Markus Hofmann NoneOK. What about custom fields from Salesforce?
- Ollie Pearson NoneAll loaded. Are they showing up in the brain queries?
- Markus Hofmann NoneYeah. I tested a search for accounts by one of our custom picklists. Worked fine.
- Ollie Pearson NoneBrilliant. Anything else in week two that was unclear?
- Markus Hofmann NoneThe nightly refresh. It ran on schedule?
- Ollie Pearson NoneCheck your Snowflake logs. You should see a job run at about midnight your local time, done by 07:00. Any errors will show up there.
- Markus Hofmann NoneI'll check. No problems I've seen so far.
- Ollie Pearson NoneGood. So next is week three, training. I'm sending you a schedule for Tuesday and Wednesday. Full day both days, but we'll break it into morning theory and afternoon hands-on.
- Markus Hofmann NoneHow many people should attend?
- Ollie Pearson NoneYou said ten service staff, right? Ideally all of them. And maybe one or two from management.
- Markus Hofmann NoneI'll check with Lena and confirm numbers.
- Ollie Pearson NonePerfect. I'll send prep materials tomorrow, just a quick read on what the brain does, a couple of use-case videos. Nothing heavy.
- Markus Hofmann NoneOne more thing. When do people go live?
- Ollie Pearson NoneAfter training, so end of next week. We'll do a soft launch with four or five power users first. They'll use it on real work for a day, let us know if something's broken. Then week four we open it to everyone.
- Markus Hofmann NoneAnd you'll be around during that week?
- Ollie Pearson NoneCompletely. I'll be on standby. Any issue, you reach out.
- Markus Hofmann NoneThat gives me confidence.
- Ollie Pearson NoneGood. Let's touch base next Monday to confirm the training numbers and dates. Fair?
- Markus Hofmann NoneWorks for me.
- Ollie Pearson NoneCheers, Markus. Speak Monday.
