Home organization services continue to grow in popularity. Many understand that home organization is just one way to eliminate unnecessary stress in the lives of hard-working people, but not everyone has intrinsic organizational skills. If you are a natural at it, then becoming a professional organizer could be a way to not only earn income, but improve the lives of others in your community.<\/p>\n
The earning potential of a professional organizer will vary based on your region, experience, number of clients, and type of clients. According to PayScale<\/a>, a personal organizer can expect to earn an average of just over $25 an hour. However, house organizers in larger markets and those with more experience can charge from $40 to $200 per hour. If you want above-average earnings, consider obtaining professional certifications, joining industry organizations, and offering your clients value-added information for free through social media.<\/p>\n As with any small business, there are a few questions to answer before you hang your shingle.
