frequently asked questions

As a solo consultant, I have different types of work throughout the day - can I organize them visually?

Yes! Use color-coded categories to separate client delivery work, business development, admin tasks, and personal time. This helps you see if you're spending too much time on low-value admin and not enough on revenue-generating activities.

What if client calls run over and mess up my whole schedule?

When calls run long, you can quickly drag tasks to new time slots to see what still fits in your day. The visual layout makes it obvious what needs to be rescheduled versus what you can realistically squeeze in.

Can I set up recurring blocks for regular client meetings and admin time?

Absolutely. Set your weekly client check-ins, monthly invoicing blocks, and daily planning time as recurring schedules. This gives you a consistent structure while leaving flexibility for project work and new opportunities.
