Virtual Organizing - How it Can Cure Your Clutter Crisis

If you've heard the term "virtual organizing," you might be curious what the heck it is and how it's possible to organize someone else from afar. It is totally possible, and can be a fantastic option, with some caveats.

Virtual organizing is perfect for people who feel cluttered and want to improve their situation, but have been unsuccessful in creating a plan to conquer clutter by themselves. Ideal clients typically feel that given some structure, advice and a written plan, they would have the tools needed to make it happen. It can also be a more cost-effective way to gain the expertise of a professional organizer without paying hourly to complete the project together. There is always the option to call in the organizer if you run into trouble, so it can be a great first step in a bigger project, like a full-home organizing overhaul.

Typically, virtual organizing starts with a phone call to discuss your particular project. Photos or a FaceTime call provide the information your professional organizer needs to make recommendations, and then you'll be provided with personalized advice and product options that will help you create systems that will work better in your space. Then you are set free to put the plan into action, with coaching and encouragement provided along the way if needed.

However, if your Get Up and Go has Got Up and Went, you struggle to make decisions about downsizing, your belongings are sentimental or you have a feeling you need coaching and accountability throughout the project, then plan to make the investment to work in tandem with a professional organizer. The progress you will make working together is well worth it, and you'll love seeing your space transform. I am always surprised by the difference in just a few hours of work!
