An agency owner was walking me through the chores that eat into the week, and time logging came up: "It's a pain in the butt. I hate even asking people to do it." Those hours matter, because the invoices get built from them.
So I looked at it from the team's side. If I'm the one doing the work, I want to do the work. I want to take the pictures. I don't want to log my time. The logging waits until later, when it's one more thing to remember.
What I suggested was moving the logging to the moment the work ends. Their project app already has an AI assistant built in, and it runs on a phone. Walking out to the car after a client visit, someone says, "I just spent 30 minutes on this project." If it isn't clear which project, the assistant asks one question and then adds the time. Set it up once for the whole team, not separately inside each project, so there's one place to talk to. I'd shown another client the same move: a voice note on the way out of an event instead of typing it up later.
The idea is to catch the hours while they're still in someone's head instead of asking for them at the end of the week.
If your team logs time, when do they actually do it? If it's long after the work, that might be worth fixing, and I can help.
