FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Yes, we offer packages that range from a 2 hour consultation only, or packages priced for 3, 6, or 9 hours of services. Within each package there is a modest range in price based on the difficultly of the job. Actual prices are provided by phone or via email upon request. We offer reduced prices as number of hours increase. Prices also vary depending on how much you want to do on your own, together, or delegate to me. Our prices are fair and flexible. As a new company, we want to work with you to introduce you to the virtue and joy of learning to live lightly! You will never go back to piles and disarray again, and our system helps ensure that your investment of time and resources has a long life span.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
1. We offer a complimentary telephone interview to determine client goals, timing, & if my professional expertise is appropriate for the job. 2. The next step is to schedule a 2 hour site-visit to review client needs, space, and draft a plan and preliminary budget. Services are offered as packages priced for 3/6/9 hours. 3. An agreement is signed and first visit is scheduled. A consultation-only service is also an option. Please visit our website to see "how we work" and our fees. We do NOT charge by the hour as every job is as unique as every client, but can provide an estimate on site during initial consultation visit.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a teaching degree, a Master's degree in Social Work (focus on planning and management), and decades of management, organizational and planning experience in the public, private, and non-profit sector. I have created best practices for setting up new offices, new residences, and even setting kids up for school or summer break success. I have owned numerous homes, renovated houses, advised friends and colleagues on design, and have a natural ability to combine form and function to produce beautiful, tasteful yet fully functional spaces from top to bottom by working with you to determine how you live, what works, what doesn't, and how to change not just space but your approach and philosophy to living more lightly and the benefits that accrue to you when you do.
