Category: Happy Tracker

Week six, forty per cent over, and the conversation has not happened. How to have it now, and what the tracker should have told you in week two.

Four numbers worth an hour of your attention, and the one most agencies have never calculated.

Tracking your own hours is bookkeeping. Tracking someone else’s is management. The four things that change on day one.

Different relationship, different rules. What you can reasonably ask of someone you do not employ, and what you cannot.

The sheet works until it does not. What to import, what to leave behind, and the two columns that will not survive the move.

Five days of fourteen-hour entries and an invoice due on Friday. How to correct it so the record is honest and nobody is accused of anything.

Giving everyone admin is the fastest way to lose a timesheet. What each role can actually do, and the two rules worth enforcing.

An empty project list is where most time tracking rollouts die. What to create on day one so people have somewhere to put their hours.

One needs to prove the hours were used. The other needs to warn you before they run out. The same tracker, set up two different ways.

Not a spreadsheet of hours. The three things that settle a billing dispute in one email, and the one thing that makes it worse.
