Freelancer challenges

Where freelance hours go unbilled.

Four ways paid work slips through when hours are tracked by hand.

How Staffic helps

How Staffic fits a freelancer’s week.

Four steps from the timer to the invoice.

Step 1 of 4

Time each client separately

Create a project for each client and start the timer on the right one. The desktop app tracks until you stop it, even offline, and syncs when you reconnect.

Fixes: Small tasks that never get billed, Several clients in one day

Step 2 of 4

Show what the time was for

Add a work note to each entry. If a client wants to see the work, turn on screenshots, 1, 2 or 3 per 10 minutes, and activity levels.

Fixes: Clients who ask what they paid for

Step 3 of 4

Check your week

Weekly and monthly timesheets show your hours per day and project, so you can check them before you bill.

Step 4 of 4

Invoice from your hours

On Elite, add your clients and invoice hours worked or a fixed fee, with tax and discounts, then see what is still outstanding.

Fixes: Turning hours into invoices
