My name is Sophie Gillotti, and I own Neat Method Des Moines, a luxury home organizing company that serves over 45 markets. We work closely with our customers to make bathrooms, kitchens, closets, nurseries, offices, pantries, and playrooms NEAT! We also specialize in moves and relocates.
With a passion for detail and display, I personally enjoy creating shoppable spaces that are suitable for each client's specific needs. When we're finished with your space, it should feel like your own personal showroom. Being organized creates a more functional lifestyle.
Whitney came to me because she felt like none of the things in her studio had a home, and the clutter was taking over her workspace. I was delighted by the opportunity to help her get organized in order to establish a space that is functional for not only herself and her staff, but for all the clients coming through her doors.
I began by taking inventory of her things, where they were located and why.

I then removed all products and supplies from shelves, drawers, and the cubbies in her production area. (We made a huge mess, but that's the first step to becoming neat!) The next phase was to categorize, edit, and sort.
Sorting and editing everything is the scariest part, but it's all worth it in the end.
Once we had established the items that Whitney needed, we talked about how often each item was used so that I could lay out a plan where everything would have a home. After that, I went shopping for organizational items like boxes, folders, and card holders.
The last step was to create cute labels to make it easy to identify where things go! These are great when there may be several different people putting things away at different times. It also helps to hold everyone accountable for putting things back in their proper place.

Working with Whitney was an incredible experience! She is very talented, her clients are extraordinary, and now she has a neat and tidy space that accurately reflects her business.

A note from Whitney:
Sophie came into my life at the perfect time. I was drowning in paperwork, office supplies, snacks, disposable silverware, Winston's paraphernalia, you name it! She was able to help me identify the things I could part with and the things that were truly benefitting my business and my space. It took a little bit to admit that I needed someone to save me from myself, but once I talked with Sophie about how to improve the situation, I was beyond thrilled.
Sophie took the time and really invested herself in implementing a streamlined system for me. Her thoughtful details (like the labels!) make it so easy for everyone to keep things organized. I could never have accomplished this without her.
