Productivity Client
Janine Sarna-Jones is a true change agent, who has helped open up my life to a better and more organized way of living both personally and professionally. Through her easy step-by-step process we were able to identify patterns of disorganization and clutter and create ways to capture and turn chaos into clarity.
The biggest improvements in my personal life included simple home improvements like adding coat and key hooks by my front door to organizing my closets into sections for work and play. The biggest improvements in my professional life are holding structured business meetings with minutes and a work flow chart that clearly shows our new business process. Janine has been the catalyst for my partner and I to begin using a CRM to improve our project management, break out our daily duties and catalog our potential opportunities. It is priceless to have an expert look at the big picture and help with the small tasks that will help you clear the way for a brighter future. Janine is hands down worth every penny and I cannot thank her enough for her caring commitment to help me improve my personal and professional life systems. If you are ready for healthy, positive changes in your life, contact Janine ASAP!

Project Management Client
Janine has had a profound effect upon my daily life with what I always considered “small things” like shelves, getting rid of extra stuff, organizing my books, and especially helping me organize my “to do” list. Janine has been so important in my life. As I feel I am getting older and having trouble keeping order in all my activities, knowing that she is “there” to help makes me feel reassured. I am lucky to know her and to be able to benefit from her many talents and ideas of efficiencies.
Move Management Client
I cannot thank Janine enough for all of her expertise and dedication while leading the effort during my move. She was simply outstanding. When I decided to sell my apartment and buy another, I very quickly realized that I did not have time to plan my move. After a colleague recommended Janine’s services, she met with me, asked all the right questions and provided guidance and counsel on my best options. Janine’s ideas and recommendations were instrumental in successfully moving into my new apartment; she worked with the movers, the contractors, the managing agents, the utilities and her team to make my move as seamless as possible.
A move of any type can be challenging and as luck would have it, my move coincided with Hurricane Sandy. Janine was not only my professional organizer but she became my friend and advisor as we navigated all the unexpected pitfalls of the several week delay together. Despite the Hurricane, my move day went smoothly; the contractors completed all of their work, the movers successfully unpacked all of my belongings, my utilities were working and Janine’s team did an outstanding job of setting up my new apartment.
Janine’s calm demeanor, can-do attitude and sense of humor were so helpful to me during my transition that I can honestly say that my move would not have happened without her. Thank you, Janine, for everything.
Project Management Client
Janine and her team were complete lifesavers. I was renovating the apartment I’d lived in for more than forty years where I’d accumulated an enormous amount of things I knew I didn’t need. I had to move and clear it all out for the construction crew and had no idea where to start. A friend recommended Janine, I called her immediately and she started calming me down over the phone and even more so when she came to my apartment and assured me it wasn’t as bad as I thought. She then laid out a very “do-able” plan.
Janine’s plan went into great detail: what to tackle first, how to make the decisions, where to store the sorted items, where and when to send them out, and recommendations for the best truckers and movers. A member of Janine’s team—always calm and productive and efficient—spent days helping me sort, organize and pack. Then Janine coordinated all the pickups, deliveries, and moving dates, not an easy task with syncing up different people’s schedules, apartment building regulations, traffic and times, but Janine and her associate managed it all.
The movers and storage people Janine recommended were equally efficient and helpful. The moving crew was as conscientious and careful about not crashing into the newly done walls as I was.
I could not recommend Janine more highly. I have probably only touched the surface of how much she could improve and smooth life. She’d do it all with her easy style and unflappability, always minimizing the problems and coming up with solutions.

My experience in working with Janine has been extraordinarily positive. I was contemplating major work in my co-op—painting, refinishing floors, installing custom-made wall units and workspace, and painting furniture—and could not see how it could be done. Janine managed the entire process, while I was away on vacation. She oversaw the many aspects of the work: all the furniture being moved to another apartment and returned when all the painting, refinishing and installation was done, and took care of all the snags that arose. When I arrived home, the work was done and the apartment looked wonderful! Janine is a pleasure to work with—warm, calm and extremely competent. I most enthusiastically recommend her!
