Wil-son Lee. Dynamic Group. Manulife Financial Advisers

I finally had a face to face meet up for a training conducted by Joan. For the past two years, I was exploring how to use the HQ system by myself and with the support by Joan & team. Joan is ever cheerful and has been prompt in helping me via WhatsApp. Addressing the technical issues I faced using the system and how I could utilise many of the functions HQ provides. Till date, HQ has enhanced features which helps me with servicing my clients. I have referred friends who found HQ fascinating and consider getting this system to help in their course of work. Will continue to refer others too. Appreciate the HQ team and special thanks to Joan!
