Agency time tracking
See where agency time goes and what delivery work it supports
Time tracking is most useful when it is not detached from the task, project, client, and retainer that created the effort. MarketingLokam gives agency teams a practical timer and timesheet workflow connected to the delivery work they already manage.
Where fragmented delivery breaks
The missing context creates more work than the missing feature
Agencies lose the thread when client messages, task status, service scope, and delivery decisions sit in different systems. MarketingLokam keeps this work connected to the client record and the workflow it affects.
Less timesheet reconstruction
Capture time while working from the task or project instead of relying on end-of-week memory.
Delivery effort is visible
Review tracked time against the actual client work and service commitments it supports.
Retainer consumption is clearer
Use recorded effort as context when monitoring included hours and approaching thresholds.

What teams need to know before changing the workflow
Can time be tracked against client tasks?
Yes. Time entries are designed to be associated with the work being delivered.
Is agency time tracking only for billable work?
Teams can use it to understand delivery effort, with context for both project and retainer work.
Does time tracking show profitability?
Time is one input to profitability context. Financial estimates should be reviewed with the agency's own cost assumptions.
