#30 - David Nevogt / Hubstaff: Beyond Time Tracking

I have spoken with David Nevogt about tracking time and automating payments for remote teams. He says that these are some of the biggest burdens of working with outsourcing teams and he is solving that problem with his platform, Hubstaff. We also talked about Hubstaff Talent, which is a FREE marketplace for clients, agencies and freelancers to work together. All in all, a great conversation with a business owner that has a lot of experience with outsourcing – A term that he doesn’t like and would rather use "remote teams".
