After hearing Karin speak at a professional women's group in January, I felt motivated to take "baby steps" to start de-cluttering. Karin has a straightforward, friendly and non-judgmental style that is suited perfectly for helping her clients. In the course of just one week, I cleaned out boxes of childhood-through-college mementos that had been stored for more than 30 years. I had been putting off this "awful" project for years, as I was always so overwhelmed. But I followed Karin's advice and focused on small "bites" -- at the end of a week, I was down to one box plus photos of many of the items (before I discarded them). I also used her approach to clean out one of my linen closets as well as a crammed-full kitchen cabinet. Yay! I plan to hire Karin for helping my husband and me clean out our garage. She is easy to work with, professional and has so many outstanding ideas on how to de-clutter and organize.

I had Karin Solomonson help me organize my home. We downsized to a smaller home (half the size) with four kids! Karin is knowledgable, dependable, punctual and organized. She helped me make decisions what to keep (where to put it) and what to get rid of. She also took all of my donations to charities and sent me the receipts afterwards. She helped me stay focused and keep working sometimes when I was feeling overwhelmed. I highly recommend her. She is delightful and worth every penny!!

Karin Solomonson and her company mundo99 have an amazing ability to cut through the clutter and bring order out of chaos. Whether it is an overwhelmed desk, an unruly closet or even a need for well-organized plan to accomplish personal and professional goals, she is able to bring focus, strategy and method to the process. Karin has been a tremendous mentor in the startup of my photo organizing business (www.PictureMeOrganized.com). She brainstormed with me in a crowded restaurant – narrowing the focus areas (administration, finance, marketing/sales and production) and clarifying what tasks needed to be a part of each category. Within an hour, I had a working game plan for my business and a strategy to move forward. And while she is a wonderful, collaborative partner, don’t stray too far off topic because she is on a mission to be efficient and effective with your time.

Mundo99 and Karin Solomonson were WONDERFUL to work with! As an artist and designer, organization is not my strong suit or my interest, but Karin made organizing my office as fun as it could possibly be! I now have a great and simple system for keeping papers in order and getting daily tasks accomplished. This helps me to focus on what I really love to do while knowing that all my "t's are crossed and i's are dotted!"

Karin was recommended to be by a trusted friend. I called Karin because I was absolutely overwhelmed with the amount of papers and family "stuff" that I had accumulated over the years. Karin was able to work out meeting times rather quickly and at a price that I could afford. She stepped right in to help me (and even included my husband in the effort)! She was very encouraging and directive when needed, yet gentle. She left me with "homework" after each session which meant that I was able to get through far more "stuff" that just when Karin was by my side. Most importantly to me, she was highly respectful of my "family stuff" - helping me think through what items I truly treasured and how I was going to use them, save them or share them with other family members. I have recommended Karin to several of my friends and would not hesitate to hire her again!

I have a home office. I take care of the family finances, do some free-lance writing and also run a corporation that is called a family! I had a decent filing system in place. I also had a mistrust of putting items that I was working on into those files! I felt that if a paper or bill wasn't on my desk where I could see it, I would forget it. So I had little piles of papers, a row of sticky notes here and there to remind me to do one job or the other. Those little piles and notes created a desk area that was chaotic and inefficient. Karin came in bringing efficiency and a calm manner. She spent several hours with me and helping me to deal with my notes, my piles on the desk top and those tucked to the side under my desk! She gave me a mantra to ask myself as I dealt with "stuff"; she helped me improve on a daily filing system. By the end of that day, there was order in my space. And a trust in her system that I could actually find something more easily if it was properly filed. I cannot tell you how professional and knowledgeable Karin is. I would recommend her to anyone without reservation.
