FAQs

How do you track your time?

As I work through assigned tasks and projects, I keep track of the time it takes me to work on each task using a time-tracking app, Toggl.

How do I keep tabs on progress?

We use the task management software of your choice if you currently have one. Otherwise, I will create a space for you in my preferred task management app, ToDoist, and add you to it.

How do I delegate tasks to you?

You can send me new tasks via email, we can discuss them during a meeting, or you can add them into our shared task manager.

If you opt for the latter, you will assign the task to me within the task management software we use, so I recieve a notification about the new task.

Do I have to commit to a long-term partnership?

You do not have to make a long-term commitment to work with me. We can work together on short-term projects if that is what you need.

If you are looking for a long-term assistant, I offer a 30-day trial to make sure we work well together. Only after the trial, should we continue working together, you will need to give a 30-day notice to end our collaboration.

What time zone & office hours?

I am in the U.S. Central Time Zone. My office hours are 9:00 AM CT until 5:00 PM CT, Monday through Friday.

How do you report your time?

You will stay in-the-know about how much time your tasks and projects take through a weekly email summary and a detailed report in Toggl.

Weekly Email Summary

Each Monday, you receive a summary of:

  • What was accomplished the previous week

  • How many hours it took to accomplish each group of tasks (ex: scheduling, PR, meetings, social media, etc.)

  • And the number of retainer hours available after that week’s usage.

Detailed Report in Toggl

You will also recieve a link to your weekly report in Toggl. It goes into detail on the time it took to complete each task.

Task times are tracked to the second (hh:mm:ss). The final, aggregate time for all tasks in a week is rounded to the nearest quarter hour (15 minutes) to allow for easier timekeeping, reporting, and retainer maintenance.
