Organize Your Business
Your place of business can often be a space where organizing the physical flow of your space is crucial not only for optimal productivity and success, but also for improving the ease and enjoyably of a space you spend so many hours of your week. Easy access to, and strategic storage of tools, hardware, inventory and alike along with consideration for the flow of work, regularity of item access and nature of inventory turnover, can all prove to make your space work better for you – sometimes even reducing costs or increasing capacity for more income. The Organizing Craftsman can assist to reassess, rethink and reorganize your work spaces for success.
Organize Your Gardens
The Organizing Craftsman advocates for the value of a good home garden – no matter the size, especially when incorporating permaculture principles in the design and operation. On top of training and experience within this model, my work's philosophy as a whole is based on applying permaculture principles in any and all aspects of life. Whether you’re interested in organizing your garden shed, maintaining your gardens in general, or considering a total garden rethink, The Organizing Craftsman can help.
Making It Easier
Delegating your organizing and declutter tasks will not only free up more personal time to expend your energy on the more important things, it will also aid to reduce the stress and inconvenience of your unorganized spaces. An organized home and workspace will also increase the efficiency of any given task by reducing the time spent looking for items and navigating a lack of organizational flow between task steps, while equally making it easier to return items to their rightful spot.
Who Can benefit
I help organize and declutter for anyone who needs the support. I have experience assisting those with more complex barriers and difficulties such as ADHD, anxiety, depression and other mental health challenges and can assist with change in recent circumstances including downsizing, separation, divorce or loss, garage sale preparation and anything else that clients are faced with. If you have no special circumstances that need mindful support, and you're simply wanting to downsize and declutter, I am the man for the job. I offer tailored services to meet your specific needs, whether non-judgemental step-by-step support, planning guidance or assistance only, or a complete delegation for autonomous support - I am dedicated to assisting you in the way that best suits your needs.
Reducing the anxiety
Decluttering and organizing may seem ‘easy and insignificant’ to many, but if you struggle with planning out a task, struggle with disability or mental health issues (such as ADHD, depression, anxiety, hoarding tendencies etc), have a busy or chaotic lifestyle, are time poor, are a busy parent, have difficulty releasing from personal attachments to belongings you no longer have a purpose for, or quite frankly have zero desire to tackle the task of organization yourself, I am here to help.
About The Organizing Craftsman
Hi, I'm Martin, your Organizing Craftsman. I created this service because I saw a need that I knew I had a particular specialty in being able to fulfill. I met people who were struggling, for a variety of personal reasons, with decluttering and organizational their spaces and belongings, and saw the relief in their faces when I asked if they would benefit from a little 'organizational therapy'.
Having experienced the struggles of cluttered and disorganized spaces firsthand, combined with the sweet sense of satisfaction of what a transformed, organized and accessible space offers, I saw how it invaluable this support could be to make life easier to manage.
As a fairly meticulous person with a minimalist lifestyle myself, I am prone to keeping my spaces as organized as possible, in order to eliminate unnecessary wasted time looking for items to complete a task, to minimize setup and clean up time when attending to tasks, and to help maintain a sense of peace and calm with my surrounds, allowing me to function more efficiently with far less stress. In using my skills and organizational know-how to help others, I found it too helped them with some much-needed 'organizational therapy' to achieve some peace and calm of their own.
Rooms, Office, Workshops, Gardens and More
Whether it's helping around your home, small business, gardens, garage and workshops, your very own craftsman workshop or a custom application you require, my meticulousness and slightly weird obsession with tidiness could help make your space more manageable and more suitably arranged to better meet your lifestyle and needs.
Some of the specific areas that I specialize in are: Work and Garden Tools, Workshop, Garages and Sheds, Fastener Identification and Separation, Book Categorization, Mobile, Tiny Home and Caravan Spaces, Computer and Electronic Filing Management, just to name a few.
Not only will I declutter your spaces and transform them within any constraints of the existing space and storage available, I will also work with you to cleverly create new ways to maximize your available space, up to and including planning and building custom storage applications and solutions, to make even more room than perhaps previously thought.
