Thank you so much! 🙏 That was exactly the goal: documents that look professional but are quick to fill in and easy for clients to read. Do you work with clients on social media too?
Definitely proposals! Getting the offer and pricing right while making it clear to clients can take quite some time. Love how you've simplified the process! 👏
Built myself a little command center for my freelance work this week. It’s called Bench.
Contra handles the contracts and payments, but my day-to-day was scattered across Contra chats, Gmail, my calendar, Notion, and a notes app. So I pulled it all into one place:
• A dashboard showing what needs me today: unread messages, overdue tasks, past-due invoices, leads that have gone quiet
• Each project gets its own page with scope, deliveries, tasks, links, and the full message thread from Contra and email
• A pipeline for leads, including a “Ghosted” column, because we’ve all been there
• A time tracker for the hourly stuff
• It syncs with my Contra projects and invoices every morning
Curious how other freelancers here keep track of everything. Spreadsheets? Notion? Pure chaos?
Built my portfolio in 1 hour after years of procrastinating. The trick: references first, design every motion yourself, dictate prompts with Wispr Flow, name #GSAP + #Lenis, build with Claude, publish with #Lovable. AI executes, you direct. 👇
