Kayla B
Communication and Speech Coach
5.0

Kayla B.: My name is Kayla. I'm a communication and speech coach. I am a solopreneur, and I rate Toggl Track five out of five. Before Toggl Track, I was basically just writing down by hand how much time I dedicated to certain things, but I would get distracted, lose a lot of time. So Toggl Track really was my savior when I officially launched my business a couple of years ago. Toggl Track was a really good solution for me, because I have a lot of different activities that I do within my business at different billable rates. So being able to organize that into different clients, different projects, and different billing rates was really important for me while simultaneously tracking my time. Getting started was super easy. I am not a tech-savvy person at all, so if I could figure out how to use Toggl Track, I'm pretty confident that anyone could figure out how to use Toggl Track. I started to use it the very same day for pretty much everything, and haven't had any issues since then. If you're considering Toggl Track, I recommend giving it at least one full week of a trial within your business to really see the analytics of how much time you're dedicating to each different activity within your business. And you'll probably see some pretty crazy facts come up in your analytics about how much time you're dedicating towards non-important things versus revenue-generating activities.
