What’s in the Box?
The average person will spend a total of 3,680 hours searching for misplaced items. That’s a lot of time that could be spent at the park or beach with the kids, reading a book or enjoying a hobby. What stands in the way? Our stuff. The U.S. and Canadian Marketing Flyers outline several ways to clear the clutter and sort and fix the items we love and donate, recycle or toss the items that no longer bring us joy or have outlived their usefulness. This is a character piece that shows your clients that you care. If you have clients who are moving, it’ll help them pack more efficiently. If you have a professional organizer in your network, let your clients know and be sure to connect them.
