TechCommNZ Webinar: Power up your support team to create better documentation

Software support teams are in a tough spot. They know documentation is important, and they love to refer customers to it, but finding time to actually write and maintain those documents is *really* hard.

That endless support queue and its ceaseless demand for attention means that documentation is too often ignored. Mat shares his hard-earned practical advice to help technical writers and support team knowledge base owners create a more effective documentation system.

Learning outcomes

  • Understand why SaaS knowledge bases and docs aren’t always in great shape
  • How three SaaS companies have made use of their support team to improve docs
  • Practical tactics you can use to build stronger connections with support, and help them to help you improve your docs.
