After I posted the epsiode about scams/scammy things we encounter in our organizing businesses, I got so many emails/messages from people who had examples or things that I forgot about, I wanted to add a second podcast to make sure you're staying away from the messes that can be created. Today's episode talks about "partnerships", more details on bad advertising decisions, and lots of other scammy or super scammy things that can happen to organizers. 

As professional organizing entrepreneurs, unfortunately one thing we have to watch out for are straight up scams at the worst, and things that are sketchy and unhelpful opportunities at the least. I want you to have a healthy level of skepticism for opportunities that come your way--and today I am talking about some specifics on things to be on the lookout for!  Timestamps: 1:00 It's ok to be a little cynical in your professional organizing business to find scams 4:00 Listen to your gut to...

Last epsiode, we talked to Melissa of Melissa Gugni Organizing in the Bay Area about boundaries in our organizing business--and that conversation veered into talking about pricing, knowing our worth as businesses, and a LOT of other topics--so we get a second awesome epsiode! Thanks to Melissa for joining us!  LINKS FOR LISTENERS: Melissa's business, Melissa Gugni Organizing: mgorganizing.com Information on our Inspired Organizer® program: inspiredorganizer.com

"Boundaries" is a word that is pretty hot right now--but it's not just a buzzword, and it's a concept that organizers really need to get comfortable with in their work. My guest today, Melissa Gugni, a pro organizer in the Bay Area, runs several businesses, and has become really good at knowing what works and what doesn't as an entrepreneur, and she is helping us think about the concept of boundaries in our business. 

My guest is Molly Z. Winters, who is a copywriter for professional organizers. One of the things I'm extremely passionate about is making sure that you're getting all of your information out in the world, whether that is your website or an email newsletter or a blog, and one of the things that is a major sticking point for people is writing. I hear all the time, "I don't know how to write. I don't know what to say. I don't know the words." I was very excited to meet Molly and have her be...

We are back with one of our favorite things--interviewing organizers in our Inspired Organizer® program on their businesses and what they've learned as organizers. Today I'm excited for you to meet Jen Weintraub of Splendid Spaces Organizing!

We are back with part 2 of my conversation with Cabri Carpenter of Minimize Then Organize in Lubbock. We are talking about something we see a lot--when organizers operate their business out of fear of what MIGHT happen. 

Cabri Carpenter (Minimize Then Organize in Lubbock, TX) and Melissa are breaking it down today with a little tough love...about how you are overcomplicating your professional organizing business. Sometimes being efficient means we actually end up with TOO many processes, procedures, and rules--which might be costing you time and money. 

What does it mean to be an organizing entrepreneur, and what does it mean to have an organizing business and what makes you successful?  Jen and Melissa are dishing about what it takes to be an entrepreneur in our industry. What is entrepreneurial spirit for an organizer? What you will hear I hope will reassure you about what it takes because I've said on many occasions, I never envisioned myself being an entrepreneur, ever. And now I am happier than I have ever imagined being in a career....

We got an email the other day from someone who was asking, essentially, what's the perfect time to start my business? She gave me a couple of details about what she has going on in her life driving the question...trying to figure out when she should begin. But I thought about that email and I was like, you know what? We have something. Jen and I had a conversation about this one time, and I found it and knew it was the perfect thing to share. But--it's not JUST about starting a business. ...
