Professional organizers help individuals and businesses take control of
their surroundings by clearing clutter and developing customized
organizing systems that their clients can use to maintain order.
As a professional organizer, l help my clients reduce stress, save money,
and free up time. It is really rewarding to truly improve the quality of
someone's life through organization.
No More Procrastinating!
Start your day with a
reason why — not a reason why not.
Each of us has the power to change our environments and ourselves. This
allows us to grow, achieve happiness, and be as productive as possible.
As a Certified Professional Organizer, I’ve developed the skills and
experience that have helped many people to organize their lives, assess
and reach their goals, improve their life and to help lead a more stress
less life.
It is about accentuating the positive and eliminating the negative.
Simplification is key, and less is more.
Clutter merely drains you of energy, inhibiting growth and change.
What we hold on to says everything about us.
Your closet, your home, and your office should express who you are, not
who you were, nor who you want to be.
I am cheerful and innovative while always remaining non-judgmental and
confidential so you will reach your goals, I guarantee!
How is this Done
Apply the principles of space planning to the area or room to create
visual appeal. I will apply my design background to create comfort, beauty
and joy to the room. This may involve furniture rearranging, hanging
pictures differently, hanging
The Shade Store window treatments, reaccessorizing and offering
another paint color for the walls. Shopping services are also available
According to Reader's Digest
Costs due to chaos, late fees, paying last minute, premium prices - can be
20% of your budget
Too much stuff in the average American's home creates an estimated 40%
more housework
This is the Year to Get Organized.
Change your life in multiple facets!
Be more productive!
Have more time to do the things you love to do!
Find opportunities in the new economy by changing your life.
My Goal: Create ideas for informing, motivating, and inspiring
disorganized homeowners to develop and maintain great and easy organization
habits.
While we can't control the chaos in the world around us, we CAN take
control of our own home environments by getting organized!
In this time I can help you get from here to there so you can move
forward with your life. As we organize we may find valuables that you may be
unaware of that help give you some extra income.
The one-on-one service provides clear direction with compassion,
creativity and support.
Each organizing project is different. The time involved depends on many
factors: size of your space, amount of clutter, and how quickly you can make
decisions.
Your New Mantra - Empowerment
When it comes to organization – maintenance is key. Many people feel that
it is impossible to stay organized. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Organization is an ongoing process and while back-sliding is always a
possibility, once you’ve reached your organizational goals you’ll be
motivated to continue. The beauty of our solutions is in their workable
simplicity – they just make sense. In the long run you’ll save time, space,
money and your sanity

Cynthia has the ability to work with homeowners and all levels of personnel

Feeling serene and comfortable in your home isn't that the goal.
Being able to enjoy and relax in your own home and having greater access to
the things you use and love. Also saving money, energy and time for
higher goals. That is what being organized promises. Together we
can accomplish that!
Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.
Why Not have An Organized Life?
Clutter - we have all seen it, and chances are we all have it. Too
much 'stuff' for the space we have. What do you do with it? What do I keep,
what do I give away? Where does it all go? Indecision on what and how and
where to put everything is the source for the majority of people who have a
problem with clutter.
How would you feel walking into a disorganized office to work? Relaxed,
calm...ready to take on the world? I don't think so. If you are anything
like most people you would feel instant tension, stress and frustration.
Are you neat or organized?
Neat is when the clutter is hidden out of sight: shoved into drawers and
closets.
Neat masquerades as organization.
Organized is being able to find what you want- when you want it without any
difficulty.
The full service results in making your home more inviting to you
and others:
Once you can see past the clutter, I then can create visual appeal.
Transform and re-organize your living space and your life.
I can organize one room or as many rooms as you like.
Purposeful organizing is about stewardship. Your life is full of
gifts—people, possessions, time, talents, and more. Order and balance come
from caring for, appreciating, and making space for these gifts. This might
mean getting a handle on your paperwork...or lightening the burden of stuff
by sharing the things you no longer need or use...or taking a hard look at
whether the way you spend your time reflects what’s important to you.
What one person calls "a valuable collection" another may call “clutter”.
One person’s necessary meeting is another person’s “time-waster”. Excess
stuff, paper, and time commitments you of the life they really want. I can
lead you to identify excess, then eliminate it? I can help you achieve a
clutter-free life at home and work.
I'll define the difference between clutter, a collection, and a hoarding
situation ( i.e.; excess) in ways that make sense to you. I will easily help
you decide to let go of excess, then recycle what no longer serves you.
You will gain confidence in your ability to achieve and maintain the
clutter-free life you are looking for!
Cynthia's unique ability to evaluate a client’s lifestyle and environment
and tailor a program that eliminates the clutter and chaos. Once the clutter
is cleared, maintenance is almost effortless because "it makes sense!".
Tackling clutter without knowing your priorities can be
counterproductive. People who take a `tidy up' approach are actually
rearranging rather than organizing, Sooner or later, the space relapses to
its original condition- Disorganized and cluttered with piles!
How is this done?
SPACE ORGANIZING: I apply the 2 step process
- Declutter the space, area or room.
This involves removing and placing objects and or paper in the most proper
place in the home. Or removing these items altogether from the home
or area. Also design systems and processes to make your daily
routines easier to manage. (mail, bills and laundry)
- Apply the principles of space planning to the area or room to create
visual appeal. I will apply my design background to create comfort,
beauty and joy to the room. This may involve furniture rearranging,
hanging pictures differently, hanging window treatments, reaccessorizing and offering another paint
color for the walls. Shopping services are also available.

Satisfied customers are the most important asset of my business. My
mission is to understand your needs, values, fears and goals. I must learn
to see through your eyes. If I serve you with creativity, compassion,
respect and competence---then my goal has been reached.
Organizing your home is a huge job and
can be overwhelming. While working with me your mind of thinking WHAT A
HUGE JOB, 'beyond my
capabilities' endeavor will become at
ease. You will start thinking smaller and begin
to approach the organizing project
as a 'one piece at a time' project. With
me alongside you, your mind will be able to concentrate more
clearly on smaller goals without you
panicking about the magnitude of one big goal---and it works!
Eventually your home will be organized. Just read what others wrote on
the Testimonial page.
Think about what organizing
projects or issues you may have shoved aside or are delaying doing because
they seem monumental or too big to tackle. You
will learn while working with me thinking piecemeal
and deciding on what small steps we
can begin to take to get these things accomplished.
We will set up a plan of attack together and I promise it will all get
done in due time!
It's true that we are in a difficult economy, but the truth is that you
need me more now than ever! You as a business owner have more work to
accomplish with fewer staff to help you and you need to find ways to get
that work done faster and more efficiently. To keep costs low, you will have
to outsource. That's where I come in! There is no better time than now to
hire a certified professional organizer now.
The money lost in time looking for
things is enormous. The time you spend packing for vacation is too
much. Disorganization and the anxiety to your body when people are coming
over, is worth the time to invest and get organized. I can show you a less
expensive way to organize your home by using the items you already have.
Ask me about this when you call for your free phone consultation. It only
takes 15 minutes!
"Science is
organized knowledge. Wisdom is organized life." Immanuel Kant (1724-1804)
Do you ever need a personal time out to decompress, evaluate, assess
something?
Do you ever get stuck and can't seem to figure out how to regroup, readjust
and rebalance?
Have you ever been faced with a decision, dilemma, task or project that
requires serious pondering?
If you answered yes to any or all of the
above, try hiring a professional organizer to get you going again.
Sometimes we need someone to gives us that extra push to get us un-stuck!
Cynthia Braun, CPO® Certified Professional Organizer.
People who say
they're organized are truly living in the moment. Why? Because life can
change in an instant and the orderly schedule you had for the day can be
thrown off by the slightest event. Think of organization as a process, not a
destination, which lets you respond to your family's changing needs. Being
organized means planning for today before staring the day.
Want to be more
organized? I can help you develop a system for something you want to improve
in your home - like a new morning schedule for getting the kids dressed,
fed, and to school on time. If the system starts to work, and it's done
consistently, the system quietly transforms into a habit. Once your family
takes ownership of the habit, it's then simply viewed as "your routine". I
remember to build some flexibility into your system, so if something
unexpected does happen, the routine doesn't unravel.
I have many
organization systems that will work great for your family! Just ask me
during the organizing session
Even the most organized people can use a
little outside help now and then. It's no different from being good at math
but still hiring an accountant to help with taxes. Or knowing how to
exercise but still hiring a personal trainer at times
Allow me to help you get organized and change your life.
Do you really want to get organized now and committed to making changes
