In this episode, I introduce you to Janet B. She’s married with one son, a rescue dog, and 5 chickens. Janet found Organize 365® when she was looking for podcasts about organization. Janet has always been fairly organized but is always looking to learn any new nugget about organization and had her sights set on productivity now!
Janet listened to the podcast for five years before she made her first purchase. Janet tried to DIY a few products like other listeners have shared. And that’s ok. It’s like you are almost trying before making the investment and I totally understand that. She finally made the purchase and then really understood how to better utilize her Sunday Basket®. The purchase wasn’t just the Sunday Basket®. She dove into The Complete Home Organization Bundle!! She just loves that everything has a place now!
There have been a few moments when Janet realized the impact of The Complete Home Organizing Bundle. Her husband was looking for a title and needed it quickly! Easy! Janet decided to figure out how to use her self-cleaning oven feature. Easy! And when her clothes washer had an issue she got out the manual and discovered there was an app that could diagnose what was wrong with it, and she got it working! Easy! All the information was at her fingertips because she took the time to fill out the binders from The Paper Solution.
Janet is a CPA and loves numbers!! Janet is currently a full time blogger explaining taxes in a way everyday people can understand. I love this because we start doing something we like, we get good at it, and then the complexities of business taxes enter and that is just not easily understood! We had a good conversation about AI and what is it’s place in the world. AI may be able to suggest a system but there is no person involved to support you on your journey or be able to suggest tweaks for your individual situation. Janet started another business where she is acting as a Daily Money Manager. And that led to her becoming a certified organizer to help her clients even more with superior products at their fingertips and organization of all their important paperwork by her!
And then we had a really great discussion about natural disasters and being ready. Janet admitted she used to have filing cabinets and paper was her weak area. Now her paper is organized and she loves getting people prepared within their binders to be able to grab them quickly when needed. When natural disasters happen, and you are not a part of them, that should be your heads up to check your information organization. I want you to ask yourself “If that was me, am I ready?” At Organize 365®, when a natural disaster happens, and a person purchases The Paper Solution®, we will be making a donation to the Red Cross. Because we want people to be prepared or use that event as a reminder to keep working towards completing your binders.
Janet now has the Friday Workbox® too and said she is more productive because she’s learned how to manage her mail and email better so she’s not constantly breaking her focus. We had a great email/productivity chat. And now she has more time and space to grow her Daily Money Manager business and network. Productivity doesn’t mean everything is done 100% at all times.
Janet’s advice is, “Go all in because if you start thinking you just want a little piece here and there, you’re gonna want it all! You will realize all of the pieces work together.”

| 1:23.9 | I'm sure you get this all the time, but I've been listening to you and watching you for so long that I feel like I'm hanging out with an old friend. |
| 1:27.3 | It's so weird, but I feel the same way. |
| 1:28.9 | Doesn't it feel weird that I say that back to you? But it's so true. Like when I'm replying to emails or messaging in the app or messaging |
| 1:34.6 | in Instagram, I'm like, oh, my friend so and so. And it's just like we've known each other forever, |
