How much money can I make as a professional organizer? That's entirely up to you, your knowledge, skill, creativity and dedication. If you're a go-getter, the professional organizing field can certainly be a very lucrative one for you! You may choose to do as little as 1-2 personal organizing projects each month, and make $500 to $1000. Or, if you're really ambitious, you might expand your services, write a book, hold seminars, and/or hire employees--and bring in thousands each month!

Our Discussion Forum for Professional Organizers: Our Discussion Forum for Professional Organizers is a wonderful place where people from all over the world gather to post their organizing questions and ideas.

Since it takes hours to run the Get Organized Now!™ site and the Get Organized Now!™ site for Professional Organizers, I can't answer personal e-mails or phone calls.

Stop by our forum and read through some of the posts.

Does your Ultimate Guide teach one how to organize others? No. The Ultimate Guide strictly covers the things you need to know to get your business off the ground, and grow your business.

I recommend you read as many organizing books as you can, starting with my book Finally Organized, Finally Free. The more you read and apply these organizing systems to yourself--and some friends and family members who are willing to let you test out your skills--you'll begin to gain the knowledge you need.
