Design Agencies Look Ahead to 2005 and See Billing Efficiency and Pricing as Areas to ImproveVictoria, BC — December 13, 2004 TimeFox shares results from poll sent to 17,000 creative professionals in 2004. (Victoria, BC, December 13, 2004)—FunctionFox, the makers of TimeFox, the web-based time and expense tracking tool for design agencies, today announced results from their 2004 poll of over 17,000 creative professionals. The results released by FunctionFox suggest that design firms are looking for ways to maximize revenue in two specific ways: by improving how clients are billed and by raising prices for design services. "These polls are a great way to take the pulse of the design business," explains Corina Rothlisberger, vice president of operations at FunctionFox. Poll questions and results:
Shannon Carter, CEO of the Cartis Group, an advertising and design agency in Austin, Texas, agrees that billing efficiency is part of a healthy balance sheet: "More accurate time entries lead to better data for future project estimates because we have more accurate historical data. Better estimating leads to higher profitability and happier clients." To assist their employees with time tracking in a Macintosh environment, the Cartis Group uses TimeFox, the web-based time and expense tracking system for small business and workgroups. TimeFox polls are sent to over 17,000 creative professionals each month in the "About Time" newsletter.

"Our PR and Design Agency looked diligently for a time and project tracking software application, only to find it right here in our own backyard. TimeFox paid for itself within weeks. Now we are accountable to our valued clients, we know how long we've worked on projects, and invoicing is a snap! I thank that little Fox every morning when he greets me upon log-in." Maggie Kerr-Southin Artemis Creative Communications "TimeFox allows us to track our time more accurately by removing any/all objections my employees had to entering their time. More accurate time entries leads to better data for future project estimates because we have more accurate historical data. Better estimating leads to higher profitability and happier clients. All this leads to better profits and a happier CEO — me." Shannon Carter Cartis Group "I needed a better time tracking system than the manual way we were doing things. I knew we weren't charging for all the "little" things and "quick" tasks like emails etc. We absolutely love your product. Learning to use it was so easy and it makes billing a snap. Thank you for developing such a functional tool. It's definitely making us more money." Allison DeFord DeFord Designs |
