The Neat & Simple
Organizing Success Consultation
and Portfolio

With Ariane Benefit, M.S. Ed
Organizing Success Coach

 

In my Organizing Success Consultation and Portfolio, you will learn the neatest, simplest and fastest office and personal organizing strategies I know. These strategies work especially well for people who are chronically disorganized, or who struggle with ADD, or who simply would rather be doing anything else but spending time organizing.

My rule of thumb is:
If it takes a long time to learn
and a long time to implement,
it’s too complicated for me!

And my clients feel the same way.
They want RESULTS - FAST.

The Neat & Simple Organizing Success Portfolio consists of all the materials I have produced and made available to the public or to my clients to help them achieve organizing success. It includes digital e-books, teleclass recordings, assessments and other educational materials including some that are currently ONLY available to Neat & Simple Clients.

BEFORE
A Nutritionist's Home Office is just not working for her.

AFTER
Using the Neat & Simple Approach, within a single 6 hour session,
and no money spent, this office was ready for productive
meetings with clients, developing presentations and more!

BEFORE

This very intelligent and creative mom was home-schooling in her kitchen
and overwhelmed with all the paperwork and supplies. She never knew what she already had so she was always buying more.

!

AFTER
Using the Neat & Simple Approach, this efficient and productive home-schooling workspace was achieved in 4 four-hour sessions, using only supplies she already had!
We decluttered, sorted out 8 boxes of unfiled papers, got her printer off her desk, created a 2-drawer hanging file system and more.

If you want a spac that truly makes it easy to get things done efficiently, and doesn't take a lot of time to keep it that way - you've come to the right place. The ideas and organizing systems presented in my portfolio are designed to work for anyone who wants to get their home or office under control, but doesn't want to spend a lot of time or money doing it!

The "Neat & Simple Organizing Guides" were inspired by my clients who are just like you. They didn't want complicated, time-consuming systems. They didn't want to spend a fortune on organizing products and supplies. They wanted quick and easy solutions that really work. They wanted easy-to-remember skills and guidelines to empower them to stay organized even as their needs change.

BEFORE
This mom with ADD who was running a home business, settling 2 estates, and running several family foundations, hated spending time in her office.

AFTER
We sorted everything out, rearranged the furniture and put systems in place to make it easier to get things done. Only about $100 in supplies were purchased. This office organizing took about 18 hours including
creating Action and Reference filing systems.

 

I have organized and designed over 50 home offices for busy professionals and parents looking for lasting change - not just a quick clean up job. We almost always accomplished the results they wanted using only supplies they already had! When new supplies were needed, rarely did they need to spend more a hundred dollars. Why?

Because becoming organized is NOT about the containers or the stuff!

It's about how you think about your needs and how you use your stuff to meet your needs. That's what the Neat & Simple organizing approach is about.

life changes are possible

I've worked with organizers in the past, but Ariane is different. She doesn't impose a one-size-fits-all organizational stategy, but developes one tailored to who you are and how you work. Ariane is not only interested in getting you organized, but in making sure that she leaves you with a system that helps you to stay organized. With her help, I'm more productive than I've been in years!

- Debbie Rasiel in Alpine, NJ

Excellent Organizer

Ariane is amazing. I am a chronic disorganizer - particularly with paper. She was able to give me simple and effective ways to to keep track of everything. What I loved best was how she listened to me and then worked out an organizing plan that was tailored to my needs. 6 months later and I am still using her techniques and no longer drowning in paper.

- Kim Okochi in Montclair, NJ

About the Author Ariane Benefit, M.S.Ed. Ariane started her business career in 1981 with a Masters' Degree in Education specializing in Organizational Training. With 12 years experience as a change agent, coach and learning and performance improvement consultant to the Fortune 500, she launched her own performance consulting firm called Bridges to Performance in 1993. She has happily run her consulting practice from her home office ever since! In 2005, she founded Neat & Simple and began working with individuals and small businesses to get long lasting RESULTS. She has helped hundreds of clients release the physical and emotional clutter that holds them back from realizing their true potential. My Mission My mission is to help people triumph over lifelong disorganization and thrive with ADD to achieve the results they want. My vision is ultimately to offer a wide range of affordable, high quality performance support resources for people who can't afford to work with a personal organizing coach. My goal in writing this book is to inspire and empower you to simplify, clear clutter, and get organized enough to have time for what truly matters to you.   I Haven't Always Lived Clutter-Free and Organized, Either! I grew up in an extremely cluttered & disorganized home. That's what started me on my personal journey to conquer my packrat tendencies starting when I was in college. In 1989, having relocated several times, I found myself saddled with over $25,000 credit card debt. I was organized at work, but at home, I was facing possible bankruptcy. I also still had just about every piece of clothing, every book and magazine, every record album I ever owned! I even had every bill I'd ever received. I learned the hard way what the cost of clutter really is when I was living in Illinois and wanted to move back to NJ to be near family and start my own business. That's when my personal battle with clutter began in earnest. I had to release most of what I owned just so I could afford to move. Three years after moving back home, I had finally released most of my clutter, organized myself, paid off my debt, and was finally able to realize my dream and start my own consulting firm! I am living proof of how getting organized, simplifying, buying less, and letting go of things frees you to take charge of your life and achieve your dreams. I still have the tendency to let things go and get cluttered when I get really busy. The difference is that now, it never even gets close to how bad it was AND I have systems for getting things back under control quickly and easily. Working with people to take charge of their lives by decluttering, simplifying, and getting organized is incredibly rewarding and fulfilling. I can't imagine a better life than one spent sharing the lessons I've learned and helping others succeed in spite of what seems like overwhelming obstacles! My Personal Office Before I Got Organized... My Office in 2002 My Newly Redesigned and Organized Office in 2007 My Commitment to Learning I am deeply committed to continuous learning in order to provide the best possible organizing services and ensure my clients achieve the results they seek for the long term. I am certified by the NSGCD as a Level 2 Specialist in Chronic Disorganization, and have a certificate in ADD organizing. I am currently enrolled in the CPO-CD program (Certified Professional Organizer in Chronic Disorganization), a two-year intensive program offered by the NSGCD. __________________________________________
