This week’s Q&A is with Naomi Gaeng, COO of Sked Social. Naomi’s been with Sked since the early days, working her way up from Head of Customer Success to now keeping the entire team (and company) in line. She’s seen it all — from supporting customers one-on-one to leading big-picture strategy — and she brings that mix of empathy and execution to everything she does. In this chat, Naomi shares why TikTok tops Instagram for her, the tool she swears by, and the trend she’d happily ban forever.
