FOR THIS ONE-PERSON PR FIRM,
NOW THAT SHE USES TIMEFOX.
Karen Speirs is a freelance public relations
consultant. Having worked in the media and
at PR agencies, Karen started her own business
ten years ago. She works for a diverse clientele
ranging from biotech companies to non-profit
organizations and retail companies.
At any one time, Karen has upwards of 10 projects
on the go. She used to track time manually - usually
by penciling notes in the front of the project file
folder. As her business grew, time-tracking and
billing became a time-consuming (and therefore
money-losing) task. After tabulating hours from
the file folders, she calculated billings and then
created lists of tasks for each invoice.
"In my business, time absolutely is money," Karen
explains. "I was spending half a day or more on
billing each month, and those were hours I couldn't
bill. But I didn't know what a productivity drain it
was until I started using TimeFox."
Karen had known the people behind FunctionFox
for many years. When they told her about TimeFox,
she thought her lack of technology know-how might
be a problem. They convinced her to try it anyway.

"I was up and running on TimeFox in less than
an hour," Karen says. "Considering that my
technological skills are limited, that speaks
volumes about how simple TimeFox is and
the fantastic customer support I received."
Not only does TimeFox help Karen track time more
accurately and more efficiently, but she can instantly
tell a client where her billing stands on a project.
And when she hires consultants to help on projects,
she can track their time with TimeFox.
The unexpected benefit of using TimeFox was
how much time Karen saves doing billing. "Billing
is a dream," she says. "My invoices are detailed,
professional looking and take me only a fraction
of the time I spent in the past."
For Karen Speirs PR, the bottom line is that even for
a one-woman operation, TimeFox has huge benefits.
"TimeFox is ideal for my PR business because it
makes it easy to track my time, produce detailed
reports, track time against estimates and do my
month-end billing. In my business, time is money.
TimeFox helps me save time and make more money."
I WAS UP AND RUNNING ON TIMEFOX IN
LESS THAN AN HOUR," KAREN SAYS.
