Doug Hanna, President & COO of Kustomer (acquired by Meta), returns to the pod for Episode 51 of Between Two COOs. This time, we’re talking about AI—specifically agentic AI—and how it’s reshaping customer service, GTM workflows, and operational leadership. Doug shares real examples of how Kustomer’s AI agents are resolving tickets, not deflecting them—and why the real power lies in agent-to-agent collaboration. We also cover RevOps structure, sales forecasting frameworks, the problem with over-relying on generic playbooks, and how to operate with high context at scale.
