## Detractor Follow-Up — Top 5 by Account Value

### 1. Rachel Torres — Acme Corp ($48K ARR) | NPS: 3
**Feedback:** "Support response times have gotten significantly worse over the past month."

**Draft message:**

Subject: Rachel, I read your feedback about support response times

Hi Rachel,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I read your feedback about support response times, and I want you to know it's being taken seriously.

You're right that response times have increased — we've been navigating a team transition and it affected our SLA performance, particularly for enterprise accounts like Acme Corp. That's not the level of service you signed up for.

Here's what I've done:
- Assigned a dedicated support contact for your account: Jamie Liu (cc'd here)
- Jamie's direct line: (555) 012-3456, response SLA: under 2 hours during business hours
- Escalated the broader response time issue to our VP of Support

Could we schedule a 15-minute call this week so I can walk you through the improvements we're making? I have availability Wednesday 2-4 PM or Thursday morning.

Best,
[CSM Name]
