freelance software for running a successful business

These three actions must be done, or you are out of business

Anyone who runs a freelancing business must not only know these three things, but execute them very effectively.

Basically, you need to know it, and you need to do it.

Without these three, you do not have a freelance service.

We use our own app called Collector to manage our software development projects.

A few years ago my colleague Milan started feeling the need to schedule our development capacity more precisely.

So we created a detailed plan layout.

In the following video you can see what the layout looked like and how we later optimized it using Web Viewer and JavaScript.

In the detailed plan we display all the projects a selected team is supposed to work on in a selected month.

Allocated capacities are organized by hours per developer per project per day and visualized as color bars, where each team member has a different color.
