The challenges
Boring Commerce started using Time Doctor in 2020 to support remote operations during the pandemic, but has since transitioned its entire team back to an in-office environment. Its leaders were looking for data and metrics that would help them build better in-office processes and identify top performers to create the best possible team.
Boring Commerce consists of seven different teams that cover a wide range of services including SEM, SMM, PPC, web optimization, and SEO. Each team has client-specific tasks and projects that they are responsible for, with potentially multiple teams for the same client. This amount of data can start to add up quickly so Boring needed a way to create more visibility into the hours spent per client to help them balance workloads and also uncover trends and behaviors specific to each team.
If you want to make more of your employees’ time and take your company in the right direction, Time Doctor’s data will make that possible for you.
