The Decluttering & Organization Process
Step 1 - 15 minute complimentary discovery call
We’ll get to know one another a little bit. We’ll ask questions. You can share space needs.
Step 2 - 1-hour (approx) in-person visit
We meet to discuss your needs and goals in more detail. This enables me to create a more concrete transformation plan for your unique situation. This visit ensures we begin with a mutual understanding of the scope, issues, goals, and plan.
Most importantly, it also allows us to determine whether we’re a good fit for your project. Successful ideas and plans are co-created with mutual input. You’re inviting me into your space and it’s important that you feel comfortable with me. This is a great way to assess that.
There is a fee for the in-person consultation, which is credited towards your first session when your organizing project proceeds. There is no obligation to hire Angelini Design following this step. Basically, if we work together, it’s a free consultation!
Step 3 - Schedule and Begin!
If you decide we’re a great fit then we make it official with a deposit and book our start! A session typically runs between 4-6 hours. Sessions can be arranged according to your schedule and needs— once a week or a number of consecutive days until the job is complete.
It’s important that you’re present and involved in the process. The length of a project depends on your space and the speed of your decision-making. Usually after a bit of initial coaching and support, clients are delighted at how quickly things can get accomplished!
At times clients have commitments causing them to be in a different room or area for some portion of the process. However, clients must be involved for the start of the project in order to establish parameters. I can sort and edit items independently, for example, but a client must be onsite and reachable if needed.
Step 4 - Celebrate!
You will have accomplished something big and it will be a game-changer!
