➾ What is a Professional Organizer & Productivity Consultant?

Professional Organizers and Productivity Consultants will help your company achieve success by minimizing clutter and setting up systems to support your goals. Better organization at work can help you improve your focus and manage your time, so you can spend more of it doing what's most valuable for your business.

Why Get Organized?

• Are you always trying to do more in less time?
• Are you dropping activities you enjoy because you don't have the time?
• Are you too busy to make organizing your home, schedule, or workplace a priority?
• Are you uncertain where to start, even if you DID have the time?
• Would you like to have a more organized and less stressful life?
• Is your mind constantly moving with so many competing thoughts?
• Is your home or workplace not working for you and your needs?

Sure, being organized makes you feel happier and more in control. What are other payoffs? According to researchers:

• organized people earn more.
• organized people are more likely to be promoted on the job.
• organized people accomplish more, in part by wasting less time.

➾ What is a Residential Organizer?

Whether you’re dealing with a household move, overflowing closets, or piles of unsorted paperwork, a Residential Organizer can help you achieve order and support you in maintaining it. Your professional organizer will help you make the hard decisions about what possessions to keep and what to part with, so everything in your home will have a home, and you can put your things away with ease and find what you need when you need it.

➾ How do you choose the right Professional Organizers and Productivity Consultants for your needs?

While some people may need an organizer to help with a particular space, others are looking for an organizer to support them through one of life's many transitions, while still others may want to work with an organizer with special training and certification.

There is no one size fits all. The best organizer for you is the one with the skills and personality that meets your needs. If you begin working with an organizer who is not the right fit, let him or her know. Your organizer may be able to recommend a colleague more suited to the project.

➾ How much does it cost?

Professional organizers and productivity consultants establish their own individual fee structures and may charge by the hour or by the project.

➾ How long will it take?

Many factors determine how long your project will take, including, but not limited to:

• how involved your project is
