The Clutter Cutter ® is a PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZING firm.
Beware of Imitators - We are the federally registered "The Clutter Cutter', working nationally, based in Wichita, KS.
So, what is the difference between an "ORGANIZER" and a "PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZER"?
Many people are organized and love to be organized, and hang out a shingle and call themselves an organizing company. That does not mean they are a ‘professional organizer'. When comparing companies, how do you know which company to choose?
A Professional Participates in his/her chosen industry - Being a member of "The Organizing Authority", the "National Association of Professional Organizers" allows participation and shows commitment. However, just being a member without participating is like going to church and only sitting in the pew on Sunday mornings. You have to get involved to make a difference.
A Professional always strives to improve his/her knowledge in the field, learning every aspect of the job - Learning is an integral part of any profession. There are opportunities available for professional organizers, and they involve committing time, money, and effort to engage in learning. NAPO conferences offer a variety of classes each year. Attending locally based seminars and classes also shows commitment to being a professional.
A Professional consistently works in his/her profession - Many organizers spend the majority of their time doing something other than organizing, because it's not really a profession, it's a hobby. A professional organizer is someone who spends the majority of their time working at organizing and getting paid to do so.
A Professional networks - You cannot be a professional in isolation. In addition to business groups, like BNI, networking occurs at social events, even online at sites like facebook or twitter. You will find a professional out in front, mixing in with people.
A Professional acts and dresses professionally - This includes not only working with clients, but at conferences and other activities. This doesn't mean always wearing a business suit, however it means wearing appropriate clothing, participating in appropriate conversation, and delivering high quality work that meets client expectations.
A Professional is credentialed - To become a Certifed Professional Organizer (CPO®), an organizer has to show 1500 paid hours, and pass a highly skilled exam. The exam tangibly demonstrates the ability to pass on organizing skills to a client, and demonstrates experience and credibility.
When you work with The Clutter Cutter ® Team, you can have the full assurance that you are working with a PROFESSIONAL organizing firm. Our organizing experts are members of NAPO, we have a member of the inaugural CPO® class on the team, and all of our team members actively participate in the learning and networking process. We work full-time to deliver full-time service.
We take our profession very seriously and that means serious results for you.
