Whether they operate from a separate workplace or a home office, small business owners can lose significant time and money when they’re drowning in paperwork and other clutter. In fact, the average businessperson wastes more than two weeks a year “looking for stuff,” says professional coach and organizer Susan Lasky.

“If you’re a CEO, freelancer, specialist or other professional, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by paperwork, tasks and projects,” Lasky says. “It is typical, and natural, to focus your energy on income-generating activities. This means the business of your business often takes lower priority. The papers pile up, the files become outdated or a mess, and after a while you’ve lost your ‘finding’ system.” Getting rid of office clutter helps clear the brain fog that comes with too much to do; the result is a more organized and productive business, Lasky says.

Through her consulting company, Susan Lasky Productivity Solutions, she teaches business owners and other clients how to organize their office space so it works for them. She also explains tools and strategies for better management of time, tasks and projects. (To read about her services, visit SusanLasky.com/Business-Systems/).
