Though the Final Draft Communication blog is for ALL business writers, including those who work within companies, and those who are self-employed, my guest post on Quips and Tips for Successful Writers on the topic of time management is targeted toward the latter. As a freelance writer, you can benefit from being aware of how you spend your time in a variety of ways:
- Invoice your clients accurately.
- Discover which types of clients and projects yield the best ROI.
- Adjust your processes for greatest efficiency.
The post describes my experience with Harvest, a time management system I started using a few months ago, and offers suggestions for making the most of it. Here are some highlights:
- Take advantage of the 30-day free trial.
- Set up project details for best results.
- Don’t forget that you are your own client.
- Customize your invoices.
- Integrate with other applications.
I hope you will read the entire post and join the conversation about time management for writers!
p.s. I have no affiliation with Harvest other than being their customer.
