In this post, we will look at what a virtual organizer does, how they find clients, what sort of skills they need, and how they can find proper training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a Virtual Organizer?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A virtual organizer is a professional organizer who performs their job from home. They view pictures or video (sometimes live) of a person\u2019s house or office, then suggest how to improve the area with tips and techniques on how to downsize, declutter, or rearrange to save time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clients who want to save a little time or money will often choose to hire a virtual organizer over a professional organizer. They don\u2019t have to pay for travel expenses and you can often complete each session in less than half that time as a professional organizer.<\/p>\n\n\n

What Does a Virtual Organizer Do?<\/h2>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n

In addition to viewing photos and videos about a person\u2019s home and giving them ideas on how to organize, a virtual organizer will set up ongoing plans for success. They will meet with the client over the course of several weeks (or months) as the client declutters or reorganizes their space. A virtual organizer will assign homework and keep the client accountable to complete each task. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some virtual organizers specialize in a specific field such as Feng Shui or organizing for a child with special needs.\u00a0You may need to study for and receive additional certification in order to show that you are a professional in that specific niche. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Much Can a Virtual Organizer Make?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Organizers, in general, tend to earn between $30-$80 per hour. Virtual organizers tend to make a little less as they don\u2019t visit homes in person. You can charge based on your experience and time. Some make a lot more if they have built up a reputation and a strong skill base. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a good idea to not post your prices publicly. This way, you can raise them for new clients when you believe that the time is right. Many organizers will start with a lower price as they build a clientele and master their field of expertise. Once they have a few references and testimonials, they can raise their prices for new clients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some organizers also earn a little extra money in other ways: by writing a blog or book about organizing, releasing a YouTube channel, creating custom cleaning products, and more. Not only can these things help you earn a little extra passive income over time, but they will often point back to you as a brand, enticing people to want to pay you to be their personal virtual organizer. <\/p>\n\n\n
