Frequently Asked Questions

What are billable hours?

Billable hours are the hours you spend directly on client work that you can charge for. Non-billable hours include admin, marketing, invoicing, and professional development. Tracking both helps you understand your true earning potential.

How many hours per week should be billable?

For freelancers and consultants, 25-32 billable hours out of a 40-hour week is realistic. The remaining hours go to running your business. Agencies typically target 60-75% utilization rates for their team members.

How do I track billable hours accurately?

Use time tracking software and log hours as you work rather than from memory. Track in 15-minute or 6-minute increments. Review weekly to catch missed time. Accurate tracking ensures fair billing and helps you identify where your time actually goes.
