Top notch team management and time management…You really can't have one without the other, right?
Because at the end of the day, if you're team hasn’t used their time efficiently, your projects will fail to stay on track - and that’s only going to hurt your bottom line.
So, here are 4 steps you can take to achieve all star team and time management:
Save templates that match common projects for recurring clients so that you don't have to spend time manually creating them when you could be working on team projects.
You can also create recurring tasks within retainers or contracts for clients you do work for on a regular basis - to save more time and money in the long run. That way, you and your team always know when a contract is nearing its limit, therefore avoiding scope creep by managing expectations with automated notifications.
Imagine if you always knew who to assign a task to based on a team members availability and skill set? The right smart platform will give you a complete overview of your team’s resources and schedules - all through the same dashboard you’re working in. This means you won’t have to waste time chasing up team members individually just to see who can take on what, and when.
Automatic time tracking makes it easy for your team to continually deliver their work without having to figure out how much time it took them. With the right smart platform you’ll be able to start, pause, and stop timers from your desktop, smartphone, or wearable device to ensure that no task ever goes unaccounted for. The best part? You and your team can focus on valuable client work instead of wasting time on poor time tracking habits.
You’re not expected to have super powers, so if you’re struggling to juggle all of your projects and need a helping hand, just ask. Having access to a Utilization Dashboard will make this process less daunting - as you’ll be able to see (in real time) who on your team is busy and who is available to help. That way, you can reassign tasks you no longer have time for to the people in your team who seem underutilized - it’s that easy!
