I wrote Get Rich Organizing along with the Professional Organizer Training Institute™ curriculum, training manuals, and program because I believe in the immense value of this profession. I want others who aspire to it to represent the industry as experienced and knowledgeable professionals. I also want to share my learning in the hopes that others will benefit greatly from my experiences.

I wish I had this book when I started my professional organizer business, SolutionsForYou, Inc. I would have saved time, money, and a lot of hard work.

There are numerous books on the subject of starting a professional organizer business, but none as comprehensive and up-to-date as Get Rich Organizing The Professional Organizer Survival Guide to Launch, Manage, and Grow a Profitable Business.
