Connect time tracking to your job costing with this free white paper from busybusy: https://trybta.com/DLEP188 To learn more about Breakthrough Academy, click here: https://trybta.com/PCA188 Have you ever wondered whether getting your field staff to track their time is worthwhile? Sure, it’d be great to hold them accountable. But you can already hear their grumbles and groans about having to add another thing to their to-do list.

He’s the Founder of busybusy. The industry-leading time-tracking app for construction and trades. Today’s conversation is about leveraging time-tracking technology to increase productivity and profitability without hurting your company culture. Episode highlights: Learn how time trackin
