Course Description

Automation gets great results. Like fewer penalties, lower costs, and less time spent managing tax processes. But don’t take our word for it. Hear two forward-thinking finance leaders explain why automating sales tax was an inevitable step for their business, and what they now accomplish with sales tax compliance off their plates.

This webinar will help accounting practitioners get in the mindset of clients, while seeing what opportunities exist to better serve them.

Rick Gemereth, CIO of Lionel, and Louis Jimenez, CEO of BMC Tackle will share their insights and explain why offloading sales tax compliance was critical to growing their business. They’ll also be on hand to answer questions from attendees.
