Decluttering & Organising
When I first started out as a Professional Organiser, I conducted a survey* of small-business owners who had just learnt about that type of service, using the question, "What are the benefits of decluttering?" These were the responses:
When I first started out as a Professional Organiser, I conducted a survey* of small-business owners who had just learnt about that type of service, using the question, "What are the benefits of decluttering?" These were the responses:
- A blessed feeling of peace...
- Suddenly, more time
- Fewer impulses to buy off-list
- Be more relaxed & focussed
- Feel more content, in control
- Make life simpler, easier
- Endless value...priceless...able to just get on with it, without stress being a factor.
Tutoring
My object in tutoring others on tailor-made courses is this: to locate, compile & relay the information needed for the client to learn what they need to know to accomplish or solve something. It's a reference librarian function, actually, but because it begins from a consultant standpoint, I interpret the information need more personally, and deliver it piece by piece in course form so that you can really understand, and apply it to your life.
Therefore, you should expect to:
If you would like tutoring on a formal course provided by a recognised training provider, I take responsibility for points 3 & 4 above in our tutoring sessions, and do everything I can to attain a new point 5:
Coaching
My experience with this type of coaching is comparatively new (I like to be transparent about such things), but the potential benefits are as unlimited as there are personal values & life activities. As a general statement, if you bring a particular personal matter to the initial interview, you should, at the very least, expect to finish the service feeling happier, stronger, & more in charge as far as that matter is concerned.
If you were to do the full program -- I haven't taken anyone through the full & complete program yet -- I would be very surprised if your whole life had not moved into a new level of cheerful & stable operation. The pilot stage is going well and I'm still offering a 25% discount on this service until piloting is complete.
As a note, my personal experience of coaching & mentoring in other ways outside my business is not new. I do know how to get results.
Assessment
Ah, well! This is new ground. Let's be conservative and say, 'You'll end up with a nicer home." Yet I expect a lot more to be gained from this service. See the description on this Specialist Service 2 again. If you would like to help me test it out, I'm offering a 50% discount on my first assignment.

Therefore, you should expect to:
- Receive quality information for your situation
- Have it arranged in a sequence that builds know-how
- Learn the information relatively painlessly :-)
- Practice it under friendly guidance, and
- Find it helpful when applied directly to your situation.

- An adequate or better pass mark, given that the intellectual content of your work is entirely your responsibility.
- Feel competent in applying what you have learnt within your own purpose for learning it.

Kudos
Here, you'll see excerpts obtained from feedback forms, emails, texts & personal conversations, which I'll add as I go along -- mindful of the need for permissions. We'll start with decluttering & general-service kudos, and branch out to include Specialist Services & personal references. If you're looking for a particular benefit -- or a personal quality you'd like to see in a consultant, you can always ask, and if I've got any evidence of that, I'll post it ahead of the others. If I haven't, okay! It'll give me something to work toward.
