What is a Professional Organizer?
A Professional Organizer is an individual dedicated to enhancing and supporting the lives of others through organization. Professional Organizers design organizational systems and implement organizing principles that simplify day to day living. Professional Organizers work in both the residential and business realms, although many organizers choose to specialize in one area or the other. Some professional organizers are also proficient in working with clients who face any number of challenges such as ADD, OCD, hoarding, or physical disabilities in conjunction with organizational challenges. Professional Organizers serve to educate the public about the organizing industry, and transfer skills to clients and those wishing to become better organized.

How long will it take to organize me?
That depends on several factors including, but not limited to, the following:

How long the disorganization has been going on
The quantity and condition of the items in relation to the quantity and condition of the space
Your ability to make decisions about your belongings
How long you are able to focus without distractions
Your timetable and budgetary considerations
Your energy level physically, mentally, and emotionally
The number and kinds of people involved in the process
The working relationship between you and the organizer

Why do I need Choreographed Order? Why can't I just do it myself?

Will you make me get rid of everything I love?
No, only you can make decisions about your belongings. However, Choreographed Order will help you gain perspective on how to make positive decisions about whether to keep, sell, donate, or toss certain belongings, and will help you to understand why you tend to hold onto particular things.

I want to help someone else get organized. What do you suggest?
Choreographed Order recommends that you speak directly with the person you wish to help and make sure they are in agreement with wanting to get organized. Choreographed Order understands that it is very difficult to help someone get organized unless they first desire it themselves. Broaching the subject of organizing can often be delicate, especially if the person involved is a spouse or other family member. Choreographed Order finds that honest, but gentle conversation is the best approach.

If the person in question is in agreement to becoming organized, arrangements with Choreographed Order can then be made. Also, Choreographed Order has gift certificates available for special occasions. What better gift that that of organization? It’s the gift that keeps on giving!

Tablet and pencil for notes
A focused mind
A positive attitude
Dress comfortably
