I Was Spending 15 Hours/Week Answering "What's the Status?" Teamcamp Fixed It.

Every Monday started the same way. Client emails asking for project updates. By Friday, I'd spent 15 hours explaining progress instead of making progress.

The pattern:

"How's the website coming along?"
"When will the design be ready?"
"Can you send a quick update?"

My response time: 30 minutes per email. Weekly total: 15 hours of pure communication overhead.

The Breaking Point

Last month, I tracked every client interaction:

• 50+ status emails requiring detailed responses
• 12 "quick calls" that weren't quick
• 23 Slack interruptions asking for updates

Opportunity cost: $75/hour × 15 hours = $1,125 weekly in lost productivity.

The Teamcamp Transformation
Instead of managing communication, I eliminated it. Teamcamp's client portals show: https://www.teamcamp.app/product/client-portal

• Real-time project progress with completion percentages
• Task updates as they happen
• File uploads and approvals
• Timeline changes automatically

Clients see everything. Questions disappear.
