Consequently, they become busier. If you fit into this category, you\u2019ve no doubt began to experience a need to work better and faster.<\/p>\n<p>Not having to work to a schedule, except those you set for yourself or agree to with your clients, is a situation many other professionals would envy. The same is true with not having to put up with a micromanaging boss looking over your shoulder.<\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re on your own, you don\u2019t always bring an efficient mindset to the table. This can be a recipe for disaster. You eventually find yourself working long hours, but missing deadlines.

We\u2019ll see how and where Be\u2019s pre-built websites will save you time while helping you to deliver quality.<\/p>\n<figure><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/go\/betheme\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/finishing-freelance-projects-faster\/digital-forever.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\" alt=\"digital forever\"><\/a><figcaption><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/themes.muffingroup.com\/be\/digital\/?utm_source=hongkiat\">Be Digital<\/a> insures an awesome presentation website for any creative agency<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>1. Deciding on a starting point is a no-brainer<\/h2>\n<p>Perhaps you haven\u2019t been calculating the time that you typically spend finding a WP theme for a client. Try it sometime. Don\u2019t be surprised to discover that it takes a lot longer than you thought. Don\u2019t forget to add the hours spent on working change requests.<\/p>\n<p>Or explaining things when the client doesn\u2019t understand what can be modified and what cannot.<\/p>\n<p>When you have<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/go\/betheme\"> 230+ pre-built websites to choose from<\/a>, you can quickly reach a decision in one of two ways:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>By taking the short route. Find the pre-built websites that address your client\u2019s category. This should take a few minutes at most. Conduct an analysis to see which one will work the best for your client in terms of looks and features. This may take a little longer, but it\u2019s still time well spent;<\/li>\n<figure><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/go\/betheme\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/finishing-freelance-projects-faster\/designer-knowledge-book.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\" alt=\"designers knowledge book\"><\/a><figcaption>A <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/themes.muffingroup.com\/be\/ebook\/?utm_source=hongkiat\">pre-buit website destined to an e-book<\/a>. Any type of e-book.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<li>Or, you can take a little more time to analyze all the pre-built websites that belong to several categories. With Be, any pre-built website is easy to customize and transform into whatever you want. These pre-built websites are visual concepts. Their purpose is to provide inspiration, and not to place boundaries on your creativity. You could, for example, take a photography pre-built website, and create a creative agency website with an awesome portfolio.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Consider the time you\u2019ve typically spent on modifications. With pre-built websites, that time can literally be reduced from hours to minutes. And if your initial decision isn\u2019t exactly what your client is looking for, you have 230+ alternate solutions to show him.<\/p>\n<figure><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/go\/betheme\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/finishing-freelance-projects-faster\/be-parallax.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\" alt=\"be parallax\"><\/a><figcaption>If you\u2019re looking for a one page pre-built website, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/themes.muffingroup.com\/be\/parallax\/?utm_source=hongkiat\">Be Parallax<\/a> has that clean, minimal look that will surely have a good impact on any audience.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>2. Installing pre-built websites \u2014 It\u2019s a matter of minutes<\/h2>\n<p>If your client is hard-to-satisfy, or doesn\u2019t quite know what he wants, and you find yourself having to constantly bounce back and forth with new ideas, installing a pre-built website requires no coding skills and takes but 2 or three clicks. Your time spent can be calculated in minutes, not hours.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Work with a plan<\/h2>\n<p>Putting together a workable plan should require nothing more than using pen and paper. By doing so, you\u2019ll avoid the situation of wasting time while wondering what to do next. Using a pre-built website allows you to skip wireframes and mockups, and get right down to business. Starting with a base grid, select a layout, choose among 20+ header styles, upload the logo, set the agreed-upon design elements, and you\u2019ll have a working prototype that\u2019s ready to show your client.<\/p>\n<figure><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/go\/betheme\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/finishing-freelance-projects-faster\/merry-xmas.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\" alt=\"merry xmas\"><\/a><figcaption><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/themes.muffingroup.com\/be\/xmas2\/?utm_source=hongkiat\">Be Xmas2<\/a> is an elegant pre-built website destined to an event.

Fine tune your website with shortcodes<\/h2>\n<p>Shortcodes enable you to create detailed design elements such as infographics, boxes, content blocks, typography, and a host of other useful design items. Shortcodes help you fill in the details once you\u2019ve customized a pre-built website to fit the big picture you have in mind. To access a shortcode from a list, you only need to click \"add item\".<\/p>\n<figure><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/go\/betheme\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/finishing-freelance-projects-faster\/pre-built-for-cars.jpg\" width=\"551\" height=\"413\" alt=\"pre-built for cars\"><\/a><figcaption>Be is so versatile it even has a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/themes.muffingroup.com\/be\/car\/?utm_source=hongkiat\">pre-built website for cars.
