Stamp Crazy with Alison

Ode to Farah – aka Organization 101

December 29, 2008 by Alison Solven

29 Dec

Hello Stampers,

I used to be a very organized person but as my business grew the little things started falling by the wayside to make room for other more important things.  When I attended the Leadership Summit this past October in Salt Lake City with 85 top demonstrators from across the US and Canada there seemed to be a universal feeling of burnout.  When I got home I thought about ways I could streamline my business and concentrate on marketing and growing my business.  I decided to hire an assistant to organize me and free me up to do other things.  That's how my customer Farah became my personal assistant.

In a few short weeks Farah has cleaned, labeled and sorted all my stamp sets, organized my scraps of paper, glittered my 60+ Christmas cards, organized my drawers, designed systems for my ordering systems, organized my boxes and boxes of techniques and ideas in a way that I can actually find a tip or project when I need it and MORE!  I should have taken some before and after pictures but here are the "after" …..ahhhhh

Isn't this a stamper's heaven on earth?  I love my little elf Farah.

Happy Organizing (you'd be surprised how much more creative you can be when you put everything in it's place!)

Alison

    Wow…an assistant…I’m impressed! That must be wonderful! My dog is my assistant but she’s not much help…all she does is eat the paper and diecuts.
