**Back in February, Kathryn left her corporate sales career to start a business as a home organiser called [Keeping House](https://www.serviceseeking.com.au/profile/77044-keeping-house), and she has been de-cluttering homes around Sydney since. We asked her a few questions about getting her business off the ground.**

***What inspired you ******to start your business as a Professional Organiser?***

I noticed there was a demand for this type of service due to people being time-poor, over-run by material possessions and lacking the expertise and willpower to cut through their clutter.

***How did you get your first customers?***

A lot of my work has come through word of mouth. However, I have quoted on 14 jobs on ServiceSeeking.com.au in the last two months and won 3 of these, which amounted to more than $1,000 of work.

***What’s the best part of your new job?***

One client I met through your service declared herself a ‘Hoarder’. I arrived there ready to roll my sleeves up.  She gave me simple instructions to help fix her house, and then she trotted off to work! Nine hours later, I could see the floor, and the garbage guys were on their way.

It was a great feeling for both of us when she arrived home to a tidy and functional home! It felt great to join her on this journey, and she’s now very happy with her new living space.

*If you’re looking for someone to de-clutter your home, [post a job in our House Cleaning category](https://www.serviceseeking.com.au/new-job/cleaning/house-cleaning.html) to get quotes from great people like Kathryn.*
