Choosing a Professional Organizer creates time, space, greater opportunity, and enjoyment of life. But it can be daunting.

Choosing A Professional Organizer

Professional Organizers are becoming increasingly popular, for a very good reason. 

The past decade has seen life become increasingly sophisticated yet far less labor intensive for most of us. If you want to get and stay ahead, make use of professional organizer services, or what I call 'efficiency services'. 

We outsource more and more tasks in our home to other companies just as if our home life was a business. A few of the efficiency services that you probably use include: Delivery services, car wash, launderette, various home maintenance, etc. 

Now more of us can afford for those chores to be taken care of by others, what is there left for us to do? How can we use our money to maximize the opportunity of our time? That is where professional organizers come in. 

Imagine what a professional organizer working for you could do for your personal organization. Everything comes from organization. As a professional organizer I consult with many people to organize everything in their life, organize goals, organize home, organize time, etc. I have chosen three core tips to help you choose a professional organizer that is suitable for you personally. 

This may seem strange, but I believe the skill of listening is one of the most important that a good professional organizer can have. If the professional organizer cannot fully and completely listen to everything you are about and where you are coming from they will never be able to take you to a level of personal organization that satisfies you. 

Choosing a professional organizer can be a cause for anxiety itself, which defeats the point of organization services. So here are some key insider tips from a professional organizer, on how you can choose a good professional organizer for your own style and way of doing things. 

Make a list of 10 or so professional organizers by doing a search online or in a phone directory. Contact them by phone or email and let them know you are contacting 9 others to find one suitable for you. This lets them know they cannot 'hard sell' you. 

Take a look at their website, read some of their articles, and read their reply email or hear them out by phone. Tell them you still have the others to contact before making your decision. A good professional organizer will approve of your organized approach. 

On your check list you need to score them on 'How good they listen to you and hear you out'. 'How interesting and thoughtful they're products and articles are'. 'How they're email response made you feel about them'. 

Those three factors alone will give you enough to be able to at least make a short list and might allow you to choose a professional organizer in no time at all. 

In modern life I believe time becomes so precious to the potential of opportunities and experiences life has to offer. Using a professional organizer will allow you to maximize the life opportunities you can take advantage of.
