We were lucky to catch up with Caleigh Scozzari recently and have shared our conversation below.

Caleigh, appreciate you joining us today. Almost all entrepreneurs have had to decide whether to start now or later? There are always pros and cons for waiting and so we’d love to hear what you think about your decision in retrospect. If you could go back in time, would you have started your business sooner, later or at the exact time you started?

I wish I started my job sooner because organization has always been needed to help others mental health and keep them from being overwhelmed. I started my business in 2021. Going from a stay at home mom to a business owner has been the best learning experience for me and I enjoy every minute I spend organizing and helping others. I’m very blessed.

Caleigh, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

I’m a very organized person and a go getter. I have always been known to dive in head first and that helps me to complete every job I’ve done with satisfaction from each client. The Home Edit really helped me get into this industry. When they came out with their show I had no idea that organizing for others was so popular and considered an actual career. I solve problems for each of my clients by developing organizing systems and helping put them to use through labeling and guidance. What sets me apart from others is I take my clients finances into consideration by helping them set a budget and not going over. It’s very important to me that I don’t break their banks while other organizers tend to go all out and don’t consider what the client can afford. Another thing that sets me apart from other professionals is I take mental health into consideration as well as their organizing styles. What works for my clients is the most important. There are many different organizing styles and if your client doesn’t have the type of systems that matches their personality, then they will have trouble keeping things tidy.

Any advice for managing a team?

My best advice is having patience with your employees and teaching them. I learned that most don’t know how to organize because there’s many tips and tricks to getting organized. To become a great boss, you must teach them everyday on the job and walk them through each task. I’ve also taken classes on managing and believe they have helped me tremendously.

We’d love to hear about how you keep in touch with clients.

I keep in touch with clients by making phone calls to them to see how their organizing systems are working out and if they need any help altering it or putting it to better use. In order to become organized you have to mentally be ready and sometimes they aren’t, so my main goal is to help them get even more prepared to maintain an organized mind set. I want happy clients and I will do everything in my power to keep them satisfied.
