Why Is Gifting the Service of a Professional Organizer a Fabulous Idea?
I’ve explained before how gifting experiences can be far more rewarding than giving physical gifts. Giving the gift of a professional organizer could make their life much easier. Let’s explore why.
Why should you gift a service?
Many people think of the perfect gift for their loved ones and friends during the holiday season. They’ve either had the gift purchased and wrapped for months or they’ll just know it when they see it. On top of gifts, there are holiday treats, dishes, or entire meals to prepare. Let’s not forget the decorations, gatherings, and snowy-weather drives.
This is a time of year when quite a few people put their self-care on the back burner. Sometimes they don’t prioritize time for themselves. Sometimes financial concerns prevent it. Whatever the reason, what they need comes last.
When you gift a service, like professional organizing services, you’re giving someone a gift that positively impacts their life on a daily basis.
Benefits of Working With a Professional Organizer
Professional organizing services are a lot more than just moving things around to make a room look better.
Hiring a professional organizer helps make an exciting and sometimes overwhelming situation (like downsizing or merging households) easier to tackle through compromise, and realistically looking at the number of things in relation to the physical space.
Expert
When I decided to become an organizer to help others, I wasn’t going to go into it without giving it my all. I wanted to learn everything I could by being trained in the best strategies and under the most experienced mentors. Because there are always new things to learn, I’ve made a commitment to continue taking continuing education classes so I can show up for my clients in the best way possible.
I am backed by an entire community of professionals and experts. If there’s something I don’t know, I have people and places I can utilize to best meet the needs of my clients.
Experience
I’ve been helping people with their organizational needs for almost 20 years. I have served people by decluttering their homes, specific rooms, home offices, medical clinics, doctor offices.
I worked with Lisa to improve her home office. In part she shared:
“I am so thrilled with my new office in terms of Efficiency, Productivity, and Aesthetics. Dennise was a pleasure to work with always on time, super helpful, and resourceful… I highly recommend Dennise Conforti’s Services.”
After working with N.P. in her medical clinic, she said:
“I absolutely LOVE the way the exam rooms and utility room/lab have been stocked and organized. The last few shifts I’ve worked have been wonderful in terms of all equipment/testing media etc., available and easy to locate. The space is much cleaner with infection control related dirty/clean speculums etc managed beautifully.”
Cristina and Joe are homeowners in Toronto. They told me:
“Your assistance was much appreciated, especially in helping us to make difficult decisions. You went out of your way, and it was out of this world!”
I’ve helped my clients increase their productivity and time management. I’ve worked with families, married couples, single parents, office managers, clinic supervisors, and individuals with a range of unique needs.
All of these different situations have allowed me to grow a toolbox of skills, approaches, and methods to best serve my clients. You are getting the best of my toolbox.
Neutrality
Another professional organizing benefit is having an outsider’s viewpoint which is very helpful.
Why? It’s easy for me to approach things from a practical, unbiased standpoint. I don’t have an emotional attachment to late Aunt Hilda’s hot pads or your son’s first blanket that’s now in tatters. This is helpful because I can approach things more objectively. Another bonus, I have great ideas about how to be sentimentally attached without staying hopelessly cluttered.
I approach each project without judgment. We’ll objectively look at your needs, where you’d like to be, then create your plan accordingly. My job is to help construct an individualized plan that will work for you going forward. I’ll help you put systems in place to maintain your order.
Accountability
My job as a professional organizer is to help you get organized. It can be easy to stop to reminisce when decluttering instead of keeping focused on the task at hand. I will compassionately hold you accountable for the progress (or lack thereof) being made.
Maintenance Strategy
A professional organizer maintenance strategy is just as important as the act of decluttering and organizing. I will leave you with strategies to maintain the work we’ve done.
But what works for some doesn’t work for everyone. Because I get to know you through our work together, I can tailor a plan uniquely for you and your family to maintain the best results.
What situations do professional organizers help with?
There are a lot of ways a professional organizer can step in to help you and your loved one. Here’s a brief list of how I can help:
- Declutter
- Organize
- Create Systems
- Downsize
- Estate clearing
- Office systems
- Office paper management
- Time management (scheduling)
- Productivity management
- Pre-moving declutter
- Divorce
- Merging Households/Families
Throughout my years of serving my clients, I’ve encountered all of these situations.
