Donna Spencer on Freelancing

Jan 7, 2009 50 Words

Donna says…

Time track every work-related activity – client work, admin, business development, training, everything. Time spent on billable activities is helpful for proposals, tracking your admin load lets you decide when to get help and you can keep your eye on all those other non-billable hours. Count in actual minutes – don’t estimate.
