Mr. D'Cluter - Professional Organizing

Why Hire a Professional Organizer?
Professional Organizers (PO's) enhance the lives of their clients; by designing systems
and processes using organizing principles and by transferring organizing skills. PO's
also educate the public on organizing solutions and resulting benefits.

What do we do?
PO's are people who are qualified to assist in D'Cluttering and organizing home
environments (bedrooms, closets, drawers, pantries, kids rooms, bathrooms, garages,
paper control, filing systems, home offices, album/cd/video collections, craft rooms,
attics, basements, cars... well, you get the idea), work environments and life in general.
They have a real knack for finding solutions which in turn relieves stress, tension or
anxiety thus increasing personal pride and a sense of accomplishment. PO's are
typically trained in structures and management. When these principals are applied the
results include increased productivity, less stress, and a sense of ease and control over
the issues being experienced right now.

Where do PO's come from?
Typically, PO's come from the business world, with long histories of organizing
experience in varied situations; where optimum organization is a must for peak
performance. PO's transfer these skills to the organizing world when they are
passionate about supporting people in having control of their lives and environments;
when they realize this is what they were meant to do!

Why do we need PO's?
Our lives are busier now than they have ever been in the past. Families have jobs
(typically both adults work), children’s activities, civic involvement, family activities,
school, friends, the list seems endless at times. Combine this with the amount of print
media and things that make their way into our homes, it's no wonder we've lost the
capacity to manage every aspect of our lives; as well as we would like to; or think that
we should. None of us received formal instruction on how to manage all this in school
and our parents couldn't have imagined what our world would look like today; yet we
expect ourselves to somehow "know the way"! We always seem to have at least one
ball that we just can’t keep in the air while we try to juggle everything. If we only had 2
more hours a day just to stay on top of it all or to get the sleep we need from getting it
all done! But alas, we don't.

What can PO's do?
PO's have the expertise to work with you and provide solutions that work for you. PO's
have a variety of solutions which provides you with options. You may want options or
you may want "the answer", either way, we can support your needs. PO's listen to your
concerns, understand your needs, make suggestions and work with you to come up
with workable solutions tailored to your life style.
