Client Feedback
I recently had the good fortune to participate in a one-on-one
electronic organizing session with MBG Organizing. Previously
my Inbox was overrun with emails that needed responses, actions,
or deletion. I was so overwhelmed I felt that I would never
be able to accomplish all that I needed to accomplish each
week. Melissa explained several different ways that I could
use Outlook Tasks to minimize the clutter and find the issues
that needed actions. She helped synchronize my tasks and calendar
to my handheld device so that no matter where I am I can assess
what needs to be done. Now when I open my email I know where
to go to find my daily actions and I no longer misplace client
contacts or lead information. I was especially pleased that
Melissa took the time to understand my particular business
and then catered the lesson specifically to my issues. I highly
recommend MBG Organizing as a tool to help the ever busy small
based business person get it all done!
- Small Business Owner
I can’t thank you enough for your help. I am delighted
to be amazed and looking forward to putting all these new
ideas/skills to work. You couldn’t have found anyone
who needed you more! P.S. - My email inbox is zero!
- Executive Assistant
Very beneficial. She had a challenge since I am a pack rat
by nature. Her approach was very straight forward (and actually
quite simple) which increases the likelihood of maintaining
the process she laid out.
- Company President
The experience was intense and inspiring. I have maintained
organization in my office and have taken on areas in my home
as well.
- Manager
I think this initiative is an excellent idea. The concept
of actually blocking off time and having an organizational
pro work with Management is absolutely phenomenal!! First
of all, I would have never blocked off 4 hours of time to
clean out my files and organize my personal folders. Day to
day operations, as well as, “fire management”
is always sufficient to fill up a day’s work. Second
of all, I would not have had the knowledge to organize my
files in the manner that was presented. Melissa did an excellent
job of emphasizing the “concepts” behind file
management instead of the tasks associated with it.
- One executive who was part of an entire management team
who participated
It was an eye-opening experience that I consider to be very
valuable to me both personally and professionally.
- Manager
I have always considered myself an organized person. However,
I was not organized in an effective and efficient manner,
and even more important, I did not have the right mindset.
Since going through the training with Melissa, everything
I receive whether it is paper or electronic, I ask myself
a few questions. Do I need to file these? Do I need to take
action? Or do I need to throw it out? For example, emails
have overwhelmed me at times. Now, when I receive an email,
I ask myself those questions and make a choice. My Inbox is
nearly empty at any given point during the day. Prior to the
training, I was using three methods to keep up with my appointments
and tasks. Now, I only have one - Outlook. I have really benefited
from Melissa’s assistance and training on utilizing
the Tasks function in Outlook. All my tasks are assigned to
a category which makes it easier to find. I print my tasks
list each morning with my goal to eliminate as many as possible.
This helps me be more productive and stay on top of the things
I need to complete. Making changes to my paper filing system
has also improved my efficiency. Now, my most used files are
easy to locate and are located at an arms length. I have never
been so organized and efficient in my 20 year plus career.

Thank you so much for your help on my individual session.
I really like seeing my work surface!!!!! I really think I
will be able to decrease my stress level and increase my productivity.
It will take a few days but am excited about the whole process.
Thanks again.
