Week one decides your frontline rollout

Frontline teams give a new tool about three attempts before it becomes background noise.

A short window

If the first genuine attempt does not save time, the tool joins the list of things head office sent that nobody uses.

That verdict is usually reached within days and is very hard to reverse.

Pick a week-one task

Choose one task with an obvious time saving and make that the entire launch message. Breadth can wait a cycle.

Measure, then widen

When readiness scores lift in the piloted regions, extend the same narrow launch to the next tier rather than broadening the message.
