Look, we’ve all been there. A new customer signs up, they’re excited to get started, and then… crickets. The onboarding process hits a snag because your team is juggling too many activations at once. Maybe it’s a complex software setup, a telecom service configuration, or getting new accounts properly integrated with existing systems. Whatever the specifics, that critical first impression can make or break customer relationships. And here’s what most businesses don’t realize: having dedicated Service Activation Specialists can completely transform this crucial touchpoint from a bottleneck into a competitive advantage.
