If you’re working for clients, or have clients working for you, you’ll likely have hit the problem of complaints over hours billed. It’s hard to see where the time went if you can’t see work as it’s being done. Peerdrum, our sponsor this week, is a tool designed to remove this problem for freelancers.
Peerdrum was founded by Tony Gialluca III who, just like many of us, is a remote-working, freelancing entrepreneur, working directly for clients. As his workload increased, he also took on the role of a manager by outsourcing work to other freelancers. Doing this for over ten years has inspired the creation of Peerdrum, a screen capture-based, time tracking system designed to allow more people to work remotely by giving managers assurance and remote workers validation.
As freelancers are primarily an hourly-based workforce, Peerdrum is an excellent way to bridge the gap between remote workers and their managers. Whether you’re a freelancer, a manager, or both, Peerdrum can be a great asset for you. Here’s how:

Peerdrum automatically captures a screenshot on your computer while you’re clocked in on your projects, so the people you’re working for can see that you’re busy delivering what they’re paying for. It’s a simple way to provide accountability, giving companies the freedom to be more flexible with employees and freelancers but still feel confident that work’s getting done, from Starbucks or home.
