One thing I have a hard time with is getting my invoices to my clients. On one hand, sure I can keep a spreadsheet in Google Docs that I spent 2 hours at Starbucks working on a mini website for Joe the Plumber -- but how do I turn that two hours into $50?
So I've hooked up with Harvest; it does time tracking, expense reporting and invoicing. All in one. And the price, twelve bucks a month, is great. I don't need more than the Solo plan.
Although, if I can figure out how to get Ted (I met him on LinkedIn) to handle some of my design problems, I can use Ring Central to send some of the phone calls to him, and then use him like a subcontractor and pay him for design.
Yes, that would be good. Just gotta get my workflow right, and then start paying him when my clients pay me. That's a terrific idea!
About Me
Hi, I'm Frisco. I was downsized from my web programmer job, and now I'm doing the freelancer thing. I'm working from Starbucks (well, more likely to be the corner coffee shop with free wifi, but you know what I mean) and trying to have a go at this. Here's what I've learned!
