Every report you need — configured your way, always up to date.
Tracked hours flow straight into a polished invoice — no copy-paste, no manual math.
Marketing time tracking software helps you record the hours behind campaign planning, creative production, reporting, client calls, approvals, and admin work. The useful output is a week of entries tied to projects, clients, tasks, and billable status, not a vague total at the end of Friday. A clean record lets a manager review workload, prepare an invoice, check budget burn, or support payroll review without rebuilding the week from memory.
For U.S. teams with employees covered by the FLSA minimum wage or overtime provisions, employer records must include hours worked each workday and total hours worked each workweek. The FLSA requires covered employers to keep accurate records for nonexempt workers, but it does not require a specific timekeeping form or system. A marketing team can use a digital tracker, a timesheet, or another complete and accurate method.
A practical marketing setup starts with the way work is sold and managed. Use the client for the buyer, the project for the campaign or retainer, and the task for the actual work type, such as copywriting, design, content updates, paid media setup, analytics review, or account management. Mark entries as billable or non-billable at the level your invoices and reports need.
A sample week should separate a two-hour client strategy call from three hours of landing page edits and one hour of internal planning. Those entries answer different questions. The call supports client communication, the edits support production cost, and the internal planning shows non-billable overhead. For U.S. billing examples, rate and amount fields normally use U.S. dollars.
Marketing work gets messy when every entry lands under a broad label like "campaign work" or "admin." Broad categories hide the difference between client-ready deliverables, internal coordination, rework, and reporting. They also make retainers harder to manage because a team cannot see whether time went into planned production or unplanned requests.
Use categories that match actual decisions. A client invoice needs billable descriptions clear enough for review. A budget report needs work grouped by campaign, client, or deliverable. Payroll review needs daily and weekly hours where covered nonexempt employees are involved. Privacy also matters because time records can contain personal information; U.S. businesses must avoid unfair or deceptive practices under Section 5 of the FTC Act and protect sensitive data they keep.
A free weekly tracker is enough when you need a quick total for one person, a one-off campaign, or a simple client summary. It works best when the work is already organized and the risk of missing entries is low. The finished result should show the date, project or client, task, hours, billable status, and any note needed to explain the work.
A managed workflow is better once marketing time drives invoices, capacity planning, payroll review, or recurring client budgets. Everhour can keep time connected to marketing projects, then route logged hours into customizable reports with columns, grouping, filters, date ranges, and exports. That matters when campaign hours need to become billing detail, budget checks, utilization views, and manager review instead of a standalone weekly total.

Marketing teams should track the client, campaign or project, task type, date, hours, and billable status. Useful task types include production, meetings, reporting, account management, revisions, and internal planning. A total alone does not show whether time supported client work, internal coordination, or unplanned rework.
Billable entries should match work the client agreed to pay for, such as campaign setup, creative production, analytics reporting, or account calls. Non-billable entries usually cover internal planning, sales work, team administration, or training. The split should follow the contract or agency policy, then stay consistent across invoices and reports.
The FLSA requires covered employers to keep accurate records for nonexempt workers, but it does not require a particular form, app, or clock-in system. For employees covered by the FLSA minimum wage or overtime provisions, records must include hours worked each workday and total hours worked each workweek.
Covered nonexempt employees must receive FLSA overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a fixed 168-hour workweek at not less than one and one-half times the regular rate of pay. Hours may not be averaged across two or more workweeks for FLSA overtime purposes, even when campaign schedules rise and fall.
The most damaging mistake is using vague task labels that hide the purpose of the work. "Marketing" or "client work" does not show whether time went to strategy, production, revisions, reporting, or account management. Clear labels make invoices easier to defend and help managers spot budget pressure before a campaign runs over.
Everhour Reporting turns logged marketing time into customizable reports with 45+ columns, grouping, filters, date ranges, and exports in CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF. Teams can review hours by client, project, member, billable time, labor cost, invoice status, and other report fields.
Everhour embeds time tracking controls inside supported tools such as Asana, ClickUp, GitHub, Linear, Jira, Monday, Notion, Trello, and Basecamp. Team members can start timers or add manual entries on the work they already manage, so campaign time stays tied to the right task.
Track marketing work where it happens, then use Everhour Reporting to group, filter, export, and schedule campaign time reports for billing, budgets, and utilization.
