Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Ashlee & Stacey Hughes. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Hi Ashlee & Stacey, thanks for joining us today. How did you learn to do what you do? Knowing what you know now, what could you have done to speed up your learning process? What skills do you think were most essential? What obstacles stood in the way of learning more?
Being a personal organizer is not just a profession; it is a calling to help individuals reclaim control over their spaces and lives. As a new business, we understood the delicate nature of going through someone’s personal belongings. There may be shame or vulnerability associated with inviting others into your home and acknowledging the need for organization. However, our specialized approach ensures that our clients feel comfortable, heard, and supported throughout the process. We firmly believe in the importance of tailoring our services to each individual, recognizing that there is no “one size fits all” method when it comes to organizing someone’s home. Our aim is to make a difference in people’s lives by creating personalized solutions that bring harmony, efficiency, and peace of mind.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
We are The Go To Girls Inc. We take great pride in being a women-owned business, and our dynamic as a married couple sets us apart in the industry. With over a decade of experience working together, we bring a unique understanding of how multiple individuals and personalities come together in a home. This deep understanding allows us to create personalized and harmonious spaces that cater to the specific needs and preferences of our clients. Stacey’s expertise lies in spatial configuration, excelling in the art of installing and hanging items with precision and creativity. Ashlee takes charge of behind-the-scenes operations, handling communication and attending to the intricate details that make each project truly special. Together, we combine our individual strengths to deliver exceptional results, ensuring that every space we transform tells a story and truly reflects the essence of those who inhabit it.
What else should we know about how you took your side hustle and scaled it up into what it is today?
When we first started our personal organizing business, we had the privilege of working with one client who trusted us to clean and organize their home. This initial opportunity to showcase our skills and dedication allowed us to make that person truly happy. Through their organic recommendation, word-of-mouth became our primary form of advertisement. This client’s satisfaction not only propelled our business forward but also provided us with invaluable insights into every aspect of maintaining a home. Additionally, the financial stability we gained from housecleaning enabled us to fully focus our efforts on growing The Go To Girls. As a bonus, we learned numerous household cleaning tricks that we continue to apply in our everyday lives and jobs. The genuine happiness we bring to our clients is the driving force behind our success, and we are grateful for the trust and support that has allowed us to thrive.
