Today we’d like to introduce you to Brittany Rodriguez.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
When my brother-in-law passed away, leaving a wife and 3 kids, I wanted to help my sister-in-law any way I could. I knew I wasn’t going to cook for her (not my gifting lol), so I started Organizing their closet, pantry, all the things to do anything I could to give her a little joy and less stress. At the same time, I had been trying to decide what my “thing” was or what I wanted to do “when I grew up.” I didn’t realize at the time there was a market for organizers; it’s just something I knew I was good at, that I loved to do, and that I had been doing for myself and family/friends for a long time. I decided to give it a shot, and I posted a “pantry/closet” special in our local women’s Facebook page. I had an overwhelming response, and my business was launched! That was November of 2021. I’ve learned a lot since I started, a lot about working with clients, pricing structures, and business in general. The organizing came naturally, but the business part has been a learning process. I’ve been so fortunate to work with clients all over Dallas/Fort Worth and even Austin and Florida. I truly love what I do; I love to help busy women reclaim their home, leave the overwhelm behind, and find peace and joy in their home again!
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way? Looking back, would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It’s actually been a fairly easy road, easier than I thought. I adore all of my clients, and they have been such a joy to work with. The hardest part has been learning how to run a business; the easy part is the organizing!
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Organizing By Brittany?
My business specializes in design-focused organization, making things beautiful and functional. I believe that organization doesn’t have to be boring; it can be visually pleasing. I specialize in pantries, closets, kitchens, bathrooms, playrooms, homeschool organization, and garages. I help busy women set up systems that serve their family long after I’m gone. I am a full-service organization company, and my services/prices include behind-the-scenes product planning, strategizing for the optimal solution that functions best for the family, decluttering organization, and donation removal. I have 5 children of my own, so I get the chaos of busy mom life, and I’ve learned firsthand what systems work and which ones don’t.
If we knew you growing up, how would we have described you?
Growing up, it was just my mom and I most of my life. My dad passed away when I was young, and my older brother went to college when I was 3. I would organize my bedroom for fun and ask for new things to decorate my bedroom for birthday and Christmas gifts. I did competitive gymnastics and cheer all through school.
Pricing:
- $85 per hour with one organizer (me)
