Client Presentation

I had a presentation to a potential client today. A couple of weeks ago I got three pople a the client (they're solicitors by the way) to install What-Am-I-Doing, and it's been logging their time since.

I woke up in a panic at 5:30 this morning - I realised that while what it was doing was clever, appropriate and significant, I wasn't sure that I'd be able to communicate this to the potential client. What I had to show them was not compelling!

This resulted in the "Visualize" screen being created.

 This scrreen has lots of functionality. The main parts Are:

• View the full 24 hours at the top of the screen
• Zoom in to an hour to se it in detail.
• Click on the unallocated time and allocate it to a project
• Use the outlook view to allocate time based on appointments.

One of the exciting things implemented on this screen is the "Sequential" button. This runs through the day and allocates unallocated time based on what happens before and after. Some logs are just not specifically identifyable as there is no project specific information, and this enables them to be automatically allocated. It's probably increased the amount of automatic allocation by 15 to 20 percent.

 Anyway, with the visualization screen, the meeting with the client went really well. It meant that they 'got it' almost immediately.
