    Cindy hangs up the phone and immediately begins massaging her temples. She just booked another appointment, Nicole and Megan are fighting and Zachary is pulling on her leg asking for a drink. How in the world did she get to this place? When she started her home-based business a year ago, she thought it would be nice to have something to work on a couple of hours a week and bring in some extra cash. Little did she know, it w

    Keeping her office organized is definitely a problem. When they moved into the house, the room began as the kids playroom. As clutter threatened to overtake the rest of the house, it turne

The desk is covered, the floor is covered. Let’s face it- everything is covered! Once something goes into that room, it doesn’t usually resurface again for quite some time. Come to think of it, Cindy has found sippy cups with sour milk in the

    Cindy has attempted to clear the space several times with little success. For one thing, she can’t cram another paper into that file cabinet of hers. Plus, she can never seem to remember which file to put things in which makes it diffi- cult to locate things when she needs them. Amidst the desk are overdue bills, kids artwork, junk mail, half finished pro- jects and the like.

    A larger desk would likely solve the problem she thinks to herself. Then there is the calendar issue. How many times has she set up an appointment only to find out later that her husband will be out of town that night and she doesn’t have childcare? And of course, getting ready to leave for an appointment can be the most stressful of all. Locating contact information, sample products and a bag to carry it all is no smal

    Tracy opens her computer and pulls up her calendar to look at tomorrow’s schedule. This is a ritual she began when she started her home-based business last year. What was once a play room, has now become a business office for Tracy. Having a dedicated space to store inventory, make appointments, and pay bills has played a significant part in the success of her busine

Tracy loves having a space of her own where she can shut the door and concentrate. With everything organized, she feels motivated and confident to accomplish the tasks at hand.

    The next morning while she is preparing breakfast for two year old Alex, she remembers that she needs to call the pest control place. She heads to her laptop and puts it on her “To Do” list so she won’t forget. Right now she needs to s

She sees that she needs to pick up her prescription and realizes she will be driving right by on the way home from the dentist. She can pick it up on her way home.

    Tips for organizing a home office:

    Add color to create the a desired mood. For example, a brightly colored room may inspire creativity.

    If you like the colors and containers you are using, you will be mor

    Everything must have a home or it will find itself in a pile on the desk.

    Use “To Do” lists. Place it on the computer so you don’t have to look around the house for it. Also, keep a separate list for work and personal.

    Keep a calendar and be relentless about writing down appointments. Whether you use a day-timer, a wall calendar or a computer calendar, consider color coding by perso

    Which markets to tap where the combination products can do fairly well?
    Which combination prod

    Schedule transition time in your day. What if you trained yourself to take 15 min. when you first walked in the door to unpack the car, your purse or briefcase? Often we keep our schedules so busy that we don’t allow ourselves or our kids to transition from one event to t

    Determine what functions you want the office to provide and keep those functions to a minimum. For example, it may not be realistic to expect an office to act as a business office, home office, kids craft room, weight room and storage area.

    Live lighter. The amount of papers that come through your door on any given day is astronomical. Before keeping something, ask yourself, “what would I need to keep this for?” For example, if you don’t report utilities on your taxes for a write off, is there a reason to keep the stub once you’ve paid the bill? Save yourself the heada

    As combination products don't fit into the traditional categories of drugs, medical devices, or biological products, the USFDA is in the process of devel

    Separate business from personal. If you are using the same office for business and personal use, keep things separate by using different sides of the room, separate colors in a file cabinet or separate storage boxes. It is hard enough trying to tackle business without coming across a bill or permission slip that needs signing in the middle of the pile.

    Offices in open rooms are a nice idea if you are short on space but are difficult to pull off. Having a room with a door assures your disarray during an overwhelming week is not on display to everyone coming or going in the house.

    Set up a database on your computer to keep track of contacts, phone numbers and email addresses. Not only will you know where to go to find the phone number, but it won’t take up
