Tool #4: Tracking your time

Keeping track of the time spent on a project helps you to get an overview of how long certain tasks and/or design projects take. Once you know how long, on average, it takes you to produce a poster, website, logo or anything else, you can more accurately price your work and avoid investing more time than you can afford at your current fee.

To keep track of your time, you can simply note it down in a spreadsheet or alternatively, you can use free online programs – just search for “free time tracking tools”.
