Professional Organizer|Daily Money Manager

Being organized is more than neat piles or a clean surface. It’s the personal satisfaction of having control over your life — when you know what is going to happen next and you are ready for it. We help you take the stress from your business, your home, and your life.

Strategies for Organizing will work with you to organize your business office, your home office, and your personal spaces. We will help you get your paperwork in order — managing mail, controlling email, setting up files, getting your bills paid, creating a budget. We will help you purge what you don’t need and set up systems so that you can always find what you are looking for.

History

Established in 2012.

Strategies for Organizing is the result of Maggie Panagakis’ passion for organized spaces which creates a calm environment and lowers stress for her clients.

After years in the corporate world, Maggie wanted to have more control over her own work life — being able to select who she works with, choosing what kind of projects she would tackle, and working with her clients to set and reach their goals. The best part of the day, she feels, is seeing the relief and satisfaction on a client’s face and knowing that it was a job well done.
