Testimonials
"The SPE hours tracking process is extremely time consuming and the instructions are not clear enough. The result is that you end up spending many unnecessary hours on this document. Alyssa was a game changer for me -- after 600 hours she audited my tracker and helped me fix many problems, clarify my language and teach me how to do it right! I wish I had her help earlier in the process to minimize the wasted time! Do yourself a favor and get her coaching from the start! It will save you dozens of hours of editing this document."
