Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try to avoid it, you always find yourself scrambling for more time at the end of a project? Or that there aren’t enough hours in a day to get all of your work done?

It might not have occurred to you yet, but jumping between various tools and apps when working on projects is a surefire way to lose time that should be spent doing value-creating work for your clients.

What you need is a smart platform that can be leveraged to ensure you’re getting the most out of your day, by automating the menial tasks that could be costing your business $110,000 per year. Here’s how:

Project Management:

Time Tracking:

Gain instant access to a complete log of your team’s appointments and commitments with synchronized Google or Exchange/Office 365 Calendars - which lets you see everything your team has scheduled at any given moment. This way, you’ll know who to re-assign work too if you’re day suddenly gets turned upside down.

CRM:

Bring all of your client-related information together in one platform that takes the pain out of online communication. Receive, view, and archive all client emails in the same place you’re working out of so that you never have to waste time looking for scattered information across various accounts at the end of a day.

And with so much going on, you might forget to touch base with your clients. But with an automated smart platform you’ll be able to set yourself reminders or Triggers to reach out to your contacts and retain their business before it’s too late.

Recurring Tasks:

This will save you the hassle of repeatedly creating the same tasks every time they are brought on board. You’ll be able to assign them tasks ahead of time, set start and due dates, and update any of this information in real-time if the contract changes.
