You know, so it's like, let that in and, like, do an exceptional job.
But have fun first.
You need to do a time audit.
I would suggest that you do a time audit.
And I find this super interesting because I'm going to be doing one over the next month as well.
And so what that is, is literally I'm going to go through how many hours am I working?
And in those hours, what am I doing?
and I'm literally going to audit it.
So the question that I would have is, you know, is it that you just, it's the slop in between, like you just, you know, it's not chargeable time, or is it that you've got too much admin?
So is there too much admin that goes with the chargeable?
And do you actually know what that ratio is?
Is it because you're, you know, building profile?
Is it, is it, is it, is it question?
So you need to do a time audit, probably over two weeks to a month, and really just go today,
How many hours did I do?
What did I spend my time on?
How much money did I make?
I actually did this this year where I got confused between how much I was invoicing and then going, whoa, I'm really busy, but it doesn't translate to my biggest months.
And of course, quite often when I deliver, it's not in the month that it was invoiced.
And so basically I went back through and said, am I just got a whole lot of time that I'm mucking around and just being at work for no reason, or am I more targeted?
