A simple weekly schedule for small crews

One planning slot, one shared calendar and a Friday check-in. A rhythm that holds up in busy weeks.

A simple weekly schedule for small crews

Plan once a week

Pick one slot, usually Monday morning, to place every job for the week on the shared calendar. Everyone sees the same plan.

Leave room for surprises

Keep half a day free on Wednesday or Thursday. Urgent jobs and overruns land there instead of breaking the whole week.

Check in on Friday

Ten minutes is enough: what moved, what is waiting on a client, what needs a quote. Then close the week.
