In the app

  1. Create your free account and pick "Website" in the first-run steps (or "New goal" on the dashboard).
  2. Add the goal "Run a profitable, on-time agency" with its date, then its 4 metrics - start, target and unit as above. For an amount that adds up, set "Each check-in is" to "An amount to add to the total"; for a target per week or month, set "Target is for".
  3. Set each metric's check-in schedule to "Weekly" so reminders keep the numbers current.

Tips

  • Read utilization from your time tracker each Friday and post it to the check-in URL.
  • One copy per team or client group with a goal template; totals add up for the agency.
