As you may know, before becoming a virtual assistant, I was a professional organizer, and for quite a while I offered both services. I had thought of somehow combining the two and helping people to get organized virtually, but although I was able to assist a few people this way, I couldn’t really figure out a way to make it work. Fortunately, someone has!
I’ve known Ariane Benefit and Suzanne Babb for several years through blogging and various online communities, and they’ve developed a fantastic new way to help people overcome their organizing challenges! Their recently launched Getting Unstuck Coaching and Support Group is perfect for anyone who:
- Lives in an area where professional organizing services aren’t yet available
- Has any concerns about having an organizer come into their space
- Has a lifestyle that makes it difficult to schedule organizing or coaching sessions during regular business hours
- Cannot afford the cost of one-on-one organizing or coaching services
- Would benefit from a support group
It is especially suited for overwhelmed parents, self-employed people with home offices, people with creative personality types or ADD, and anyone who suffers because of chronic disorganization.
Delivered through an interactive members-only website, the program consists of:
- Six to eight live learning and coaching calls per month, accessible via telephone or on the web
- Downloadable recordings of all calls, so you can review them as often as you need to, or listen to any that you miss
- Discussion forums where you can share information, including photographs of the areas you’re organizing, and ask questions of Ariane, Suzanne, and other group members
- An optional Project Journal for tracking your project, goals, obstacles, and achievements
- Helpful e-books, forms, and checklists
- Discounts on workshops and other publications
If you need to kick start your resolution to get organized in 2009, why not check out the Getting Unstuck Coaching and Support Group? Not only do the first 50 members get in for a reduced rate, but Suzanne and Ariane will refund 100% of your fees if you aren’t happy with the group for any reason within the first 7 days!
What do you have to lose, other than your clutter?
Hi Janet!
Thank you so much for letting people know about our coaching group! We are enjoying it tremendously. It is so awesome to see people who had given up the hope that they could become organized, get their faith back. We have a great agenda of classes lined up for the next few months…here are just a few…
