The Problem
Karen has a wonderful office: spacious and light-filled, and it was easy to just let papers and supplies lie around on her desk and on the floor. What's more, there were 5 file cabinets that were out of easy reach, and they contained many articles on a variety of topics that Karen needed when she did research, gave workshops, and wrote articles.
The Solution
We set up a storage area in the closet in Karen's office to hold all her supplies, modified and improved her existing file system by sorting, purging, consolidating, and re-categorizing papers and files, and rearranged equipment (and cables), bookcases, and file cabinets.

You really helped me out and I am psyched to forge ahead with the new file system. I still have white space on my desk!! I purchased two fine looking baskets . . . for my desk tools and bills.
It is strange how some simple things can make you feel so organized . . . things are looking much better and I am feeling not as overwhelmed. Thanks for all of your help.

The Problem
Those of you in the insurance industry know how much paper can accumulate in your office in no time flat! Such was the case with Jerry. And, he had an office mate.
The Solution
We purged Jerry's duplicate reports, and organized his 2 over-the-desk cabinets to give him really easy access to his current folders. We also set up a convenient 'supplies' drawer in his desk, for the stapler, tape, and other items that were taking up valuable real estate on his desktop. Jerry actually describes more of the solution in this letter to his colleagues:

I hired Sue Weiss, a professional organizer from Bottom Line Results, to help me better organize my office, particularly my desk area. By asking me many questions during the time she was here, we accomplished just that!
Sue set up one of the cabinets with all my information on disability insurance - it all used to sit in a stack near the window! She also had some tips on time management and on how to organize all my business cards.
Sue was really good about asking the questions that helped me decide what to keep and what to toss, and that helped her make suggestions that were specific to my needs and preferences. She’s very non-judgmental and is a pleasure to work with. Our industry is a very paper-intensive one and I would highly recommend her to any of you who need help in better organizing your office!

The Problem
Shari not only had her own job to do, she also covered for others when they were out of the office. It was no surprise that one of her biggest challenges was managing her time effectively. Additionally, her office was located in an area that others used as a shortcut, disrupting her work each time they walked through it.
The Solution
We discussed different types of pocket planners, and how to identify, prioritize -- -- and then schedule -- Shari's important tasks. We also established strategies that she implemented to minimize those disruptions through her office.

. . . I just wanted to say thank you for all of your help. I am using the skills that you taught me and I actually leave work at 5 or 5:30 now.
