What is virtual organizing?

Virtual organizing is similar to a traditional on-site home organizing session, only instead of meeting face-to-face, you and I meet and work together via a smartphone or webcam. Using platforms such as Zoom, WhatsApp, FaceTime, and Google MEET, I meet with clients for a FREE initial 15 minute estimate, during which they show me their home trouble spots by way of their mobile device. Then they decide if they want to hire me to support them in decluttering and organizing their home. The most successful clients for virtual organizing are those who have some idea of an optimum outcome and are simply stuck on a certain project or need professional guidance on specific spaces within their home or work-at-home office.

What to expect

Virtual organizing clients must purchase an initial 4 hours of organizing services. Each session is scheduled for a specific morning or afternoon, Monday – Saturday, with a minimum of 1 hour per day. From there, additional hours may be purchased in 2-hour increments. Currently, kitchens, laundry rooms, and home offices are the top virtual organizing requests, but other successful virtual organizing projects include family management services for clients feeling stuck or overwhelmed and coaching for previously organized areas that need a professional touch-up.

Is virtual organizing for you?

Location is the number one reason clients choose virtual organizing; either they live in an area without organizing services, or they specifically want to work with Vicki and are outside her company’s service areas.  Clients who choose virtual organizing must be able and willing to do the hands-on work. Vicki brings with her loads of training and 15 years of experience. At the end of their time together, maintenance best practices are shared so upkeep on their newly organized home spaces is consistently doable.

Client spotlight

One of our 2020 virtual organizing clients kindly offered us a testimonial she was eager to share. She is a working woman who has been newly diagnosed with ADHD and needed some help knowing how to move forward:

“I have told many of my friends that this was a very good experience.  As a busy working woman and mother of two, I found it very fulfilling. I encourage anyone to consider a virtual organizing session with Vicki at Organizing Mind over Matter. She was very understanding of my needs and the demands of my day-to-day life, including the fact that I have very limited time to devote to any one project.  She helped me stay focused on the projects we tackled until completion. (This is something I really struggle with due to my ADHD diagnosis.) The home organizing containers and systems she recommended have provided me greater effectiveness in easily finding the things I need within my home. With Vicki’s help I will live a more efficient life from here on in. Thank you big time Vicki! Shauna in Provo”

I worked this week for 3 days at the home of A.J. in Spanish Fork. She purchased my 21 hour miracle package. A.J. and her husband had combined 3 moves worth of unprocessed items into one bedroom on the main floor of their current home. She did not know how to purge and categorize the items thrown in this room.

AJ was a woman with a creative mind (she works with visual media) and she told me she had trouble categorizing items. To her credit, AJ was a very quick decision maker and once I categorized the room items into 4 main categories she was quick to sort through and decide: (1) which should go, and (2) which should stay. It took me one day to complete the guest room (junk room) beginning to end. I spent the other two days working on her bathrooms, family room, living room, and work-at-home office. (read on to view the before and after photos)

This week I received a phone call from a woman (a new grandmother wanting to help) who was looking for some help for her daughter who felt a need to organize kitchen pantry shelves in her new home. This young mother, Seneca, had birthed a beautiful new baby girl five days earlier. The week before that, Seneca and her husband had moved into a new home. How is that for bringing on some MAJOR OVERWHELM!

I knew that in one morning I could easily organize the pantry and could then spend the afternoon organizing another room in Seneca’s new home so I suggested to Seneca my one day home organizing package so I could save her a little money. Take a look at the before and after photos Seneca took.  You can see in the before photo that Seneca had planned to organize by buying a few home organizing tools but she had not had the time, energy, or the detailed knowledge she felt she needed to tackle her pantry.
