The Go-To Girl - Your Office and Home Organizer!

by Paula Forysth
(Bolton, ON, Canada)

Hi everyone! Just thought I would tell my story on how I got started in my business, The Go-To Girl.

First off, my name is Paula Forsyth and I am an Office and Home Organizer.

I decided to start my own business when I realized that all the jobs I worked at and all the departments I started in were a mess. I was always the one fixing things and making filing systems, paperwork, etc flow. Once everything started to flow and the bugs were worked out I would promptly get bored and start looking for another challenge. Another challenge generally meant another job.

This was starting to look horrible on my resume as I only stayed in one place for a short period of time. Between organizing the offices I worked at and phone calls from previous bosses to find stuff for them (source out products they couldn't find, or research better pricing) The Go-To Girl was born.

It did not take off right away, nor do I think I was ready for it to take off right away. I needed my time to research and to get my ducks in a row as they say. I need to find the right advertising mediums, figure out a marketing plan, work on my business plan (still a work in process I might add).

Now I am ready to roll and eager for all challenges that this is bringing me. And I realized that I LOVE WHAT I DO!!! I love being able to help someone, even in small ways, to get the peace that they are looking for in a well organized space.

There have been several times when I have gone for consultations and thought "Oh my, what am I doing? Am I crazy? I can't do this?" but I have learned that YES I CAN DO THIS and I LOVE IT!!! Don't let that nasty monster of self-doubt take away your self confidence.

The other thing I learned is that needed to love what I do, that was so important to me and has helped me over the hurdles.

Happy Organizing!!!

Paula
