There comes a point in your professional organizing business where selfies and amateur snapshots just won’t cut it anymore to really convey your brand’s message to your audience.
One of the best investments I’ve ever made for my organizing business was having a proper branding photoshoot done. Having clear, crisp and cohesive photos will help your brand stand out from all other businesses around you and make you and your company appear more real, professional and approachable.

Today, I am interviewing a professional organizer and life coach, Carly Tizzano. Carly launched her organizing business fresh out of college, and within her first year of working with clients, she realized she had taken on a coaching role in their lives to work through the mental clutter along with the physical stuff. Carly took an interest in life coaching and decided to become certified through Brook Castillo’s Life Coaching School.

Today, I am sharing an imaginary coaching scenario that I’ve pulled together based on a composite of many of the coaching calls I’ve been on the giving and receiving ends of over the last few years. As a professional organizer, I think you’ll relate to at least a few of these challenges I’m going to illustrate when it comes to growing your business. And you’ll also learn a model for empowering yourself with some self-coaching as you are working through your own growth challenges in 2020 and beyond.
