You CAN be a Certified Organizer and Have a Successful Professional Organizing Business
Doing What You Love
You've been considering starting an organizing business, but you don't feel ready yet. There are so many things to prepare and you want to be sure everything is JUST right before you launch your business. You're not alone — my students always feel like this at the beginning. My name is Anne Blumer and I founded the Institute for Professional Organizers™ for people just like you.

You can start your organizing business now
AND feel confident with the
Fast-Track Method™
My method has three certification levels: Trained Organizer, Certified Organizer, or Master Professional Organizer®.
How are my professional organizing courses different from others?
Comprehensive — Get everything you need to know in ONE place. No more piecing things together!
- Organizing: You’ll learn my 5 Steps to Organizing® process, how to work with unique clients, and virtual organizing.
- Planning & Launching: You’ll know how to create a business plan, what to charge for your services, how to register your business, and MORE.
- Managing: You’ll feel confident working with clients and know what to expect.
- Growing: You’ll learn how to consistently get clients.
Affordable — You’ll get ALL aspects of running your organizing business for the price of fragments you can learn elsewhere.
Expedient — I call it Fast-Track™ for a reason! You’ve considered things long enough. It’s time to get started.
Accessible — You complete the program at your pace, at your place. My program has been available internationally since 2004. You can access it anywhere and have lifetime access to my insider knowledge.
The Fast-Track Method™ is THE
Certified Organizer Training That Will Give You the
Certainty and Direction You Need to Get Started
Do you ever feel like you don’t know what you don’t know about the organizing profession?
Have you been on the fence about starting your business for a while, worried you’ll miss something important or make mistakes?
Are you ready to start your business with credibility and confidence?
A recent student told me she made $8,000 in two months, and
she hadn’t fully launched her business yet!

I am very pleased with the outcome of the certified organizer training program. The program had just the right amount of content to create my business. It wasn't overwhelming and I went step-by-step. I appreciate Anne's guidance throughout the program. She was very receptive and listened, but also provided feedback when I needed it. I feel confident going forward with my new business venture.

Anne taught me so much and gave me so much confidence to start my business. The ability to work with an ally that promotes self-confidence and resilience while teaching practical business skills is priceless.
Stephanie Kujak, Certified Organizer, Elle Maven Homes, Waunakee, Wisconsin

My experience with this certified organizer training course was excellent! The instruction provided is very thorough and informative. Anne was very supportive during the training answering all questions I had. I would definitely recommend IPO to any organizer who is getting started or who wants to learn more.
Michaele Tocco, Certified Organizer, Michaele's Precise Planning, Detroit, Michigan

The time, effort, professionalism, and (at least) 20 years’ worth of Anne’s organizing experience that is contained within such a meticulous and thoughtfully produced certified organizer training course, is worth so much more than $1,000!
Finding such a course, designed to walk you through such an immense process step-by-step, like a coach leading you to the next exercise, was (and is!) so reassuring!
There are so many practical tools, examples, and references contained in the course that are so helpful as well as access to Anne herself who’s willing to be an understanding guide and mentor.
I appreciated having the accountability this certified organizer training course offered to help “light a fire” under me and begin the process of thinking and putting thoughts down regarding my business.
Overall, just a quality-made instructional course.
Sefora Cauneac, Certified Organizer, Portland, Oregon

This certified organizer training program exceeded my expectations. I learned so much about starting a business and starting a career as a professional organizer.
Anne has been an incredible resource and it means a lot to have her as a mentor for the next year. The 5 Steps to Organizing® process is very helpful and will be a great reference for me working with future clients.
Anne is very supportive and you can tell she genuinely cares about her students' success.
