Case Study: Austin Bookkeeping & Consulting achieves greater efficiency and profitability with Xero Projects

How time management helped a bookkeeper (and busy artist) increase efficiency

Austin Bookkeeping & Consulting needed a simpler way to track time and understand why the business, despite being busy, wasn’t more profitable. Using Xero Projects from Xero, the firm’s owner began tracking the full workday and discovered how much unpaid time was being spent on client work, especially on low-paying clients and “small” tasks like emails and phone calls.

Xero Projects helped Austin Bookkeeping & Consulting streamline time tracking and invoicing, making it easier to record tasks, recover costs, and identify unprofitable clients. The result was hundreds of hours saved, faster invoicing with less admin, improved profitability, and the ability to take time away from the business every six weeks.
