Getting Help - Professional Organizers Blog Carnival

Janet Barclay

A former professional organizer, I now eliminate stress for my clients by hosting, monitoring, and maintaining their WordPress sites so they don't have to worry about security, downtime or performance issues. When I'm away from my desk, I enjoy reading, photography, watching movies, and cooking.

Welcome to the latest edition of the Professional Organizers Blog Carnival! This month, it’s all about getting help.

Depending on the type of help you need, it may come from many different sources:

  • from a professional organizer
  • from a family member
  • from a financial planner
  • from technology
  • from a virtual assistant
  • from the community
  • from a coach
  • from team members

And these are just a few possibilities!

To learn more about identifying when help is needed, what type of help is needed, who should provide that help, and how to ask for it, I encourage you to read the posts listed below, which have been submitted by readers of Your Organizing Business.

You may notice that we’ve changed our layout this month. We’re using a new tool which hopefully makes it easier to read while reducing the time it takes to put the Blog Carnival together. This gives me more time to read your posts, to develop topics for future Blog Carnivals, and to work on regular blog posts.

As you read through the posts, be sure to take this opportunity to grow your network by leaving comments and/or connecting with the bloggers on social media. Please use the hashtag #POBC in your social media posts.

We’re now accepting submissions on the topic of Organizing for Managers and Team Leaders . Be sure to submit your post by midnight EDT on Tuesday, June 9 to be included, as the Professional Organizers Blog Carnival will be published on Wednesday, June 10.
