You can **plan busy seasons such as tax time with clear task allocation** by listing every client task for the season in advance, collecting client information early, assigning tasks based on each person's capacity and following daily progress against deadlines.

In **Jestor**, seasonal tasks, client readiness and team capacity are connected, so the firm sees risks before the final week.

## Why are busy seasons so stressful?

Work concentrates in a few weeks, client information arrives late and everyone works long hours.

Tasks are assigned informally, some people are overloaded and others wait for work.

Clients who send information at the last minute put the whole team under pressure.

## What problems does season planning solve?

- Work concentrated in the last days
- Late client information
- Uneven task distribution
- No view of progress across clients
- Burnout and errors

## How do I plan a busy season in Jestor?

1. **Create seasonal tasks** for every client before the season starts.
2. **Request client information early** with forms and checklists.
3. **Track client readiness**: Not started, Partial, Complete.
4. **Assign tasks** according to capacity.
5. **Review daily progress** on a dashboard.

| Client readiness | Action                |
| ---------------- | --------------------- |
| Not started      | Send reminders        |
| Partial          | Request missing items |
| Complete         | Assign and start work |

Early reminders through **WhatsApp** encourage clients to send information sooner.
