Track Freelance Job Pitches With A Spreadsheet

If you're venturing into freelance work for the first time, or juggling quite a few contracts, Web Worker Daily has a helpful step-by-step on building a spreadsheet that will help you track who's biting, who you're waiting on, and more.

If, like certain red-faced Lifehacker editors, your spreadsheet jujitsu isn't quite up to black belt levels, Celine Rogue's explainer should help you set up a table with drop-down boxes, all the right fields, and standardised data for easy future input. With such a sheet in place, you can get a Getting-Things-Done-like handle on who you've accepted work for and when it's due, who you're still waiting to hear back from, and who you can move past.
