On average, how often does your Executive travel for business?

Banking apps, maps, stocks, Uber, restaurant apps. Concur for expenses. Skyscanner. Citymapper.

Make sure that tasks directly associated with clients come first, consider the financial impact of a project and its completion date on the company, don’t let deadlines control the priority list (expense reports can wait when there are more important tasks), and consider cause and effect (do A to enable B, which accomplishes C).

He wrote in one sentence that he had " expensive experience" instead of "extensive" and in another wrote "tits" instead of "its." He relied totally on spell check so you can imagine what typos were missed. He was a lawyer and in this particular letter he was writing to a prospective client.
