I had a very pleasant experience joining this webinar to learn insights and best practices that can potentially improve the company expense reimbursement process. It is also exceptionally empowering to know the struggles that I had are common and can be taken seriously with proper approaches.

Mary is awesome. I sign up for every one of her events. But an hour is not enough as there are always questions. One thing I would like is the ability to switch devices. I had to start on my phone as I was away from my pc but once at the pc I’m stuck in the phone. There is no way I’ve found to switch devices.
