Centering the Customer at BILL with Sarah Acton

Sarah Acton is the Chief Customer Officer at BILL. Until recently she had been the Chief Marketing Officer. However, this is more than just a one-word title shift. It's a shift in the focus of BILL's branding, marketing, and sales efforts. We discussed all of this and more this week on the On Brand podcast.
