Time Tracking for Branding Agencies Billing Creative Work by the Hour
Branding Agencies time tracking
Teetrack helps solo branding professionals track their own billable hours across strategy, design, and production so creative work is billed accurately.
Why Branding Agencies struggle with time tracking
Creative work resists rigid time categories
Brand strategy sessions blur into mood board creation, which leads to logo iterations, which sparks copy revisions. Without clear task boundaries, agencies struggle to allocate hours to the right deliverable.
Multiple team members on one project obscure true costs
A branding project might involve a strategist, two designers, and a copywriter. If each tracks time differently — or not at all — the project lead has no real picture of profitability until it is too late.
Revision rounds consume hours that were never scoped
Client feedback loops on brand identity work can stretch well beyond the original estimate. Without tracking revision time separately, agencies absorb the overrun and erode their margins.
How Teetrack solves this
- Creative hours hard to categorize: Track your own time per project phase — strategy, design, production — so each hour is assigned to the right deliverable.
- Revision rounds blowing budgets: See hours grouped by project phase in the Summary — revision overruns are documented in the export, not absorbed into thin air.
Example scenario
“No screenshot or activity monitoring — I track hours, not keystrokes, and clients respect the distinction.”
