My Messy Mom's Classes

I haven't shared anything about my Messy Mom's classes lately, mainly because I've been a busy bunny, but I am now halfway through my fourth class. I just can't tell you how much I am enjoying doing these classes. I think I really am a teacher at heart and I just love sharing all these good tips and new ideas I've accumulated over the years.

The nice thing is that I've seen some of my students (I'm not sure whether to call them students or clients?) have made some real progress. One lady removed 3 truckloads of "stuff" from her house. Another student finally created a place to sit and relax in her home. She literally did not have a square inch of her home where she could have some relaxation and privacy. One of my other students gives me a hug at the end of each session because she's so appreciative of the new ideas I am sharing with her.

The only downside to it is that I am terrible about the advertising end of things, so my classes have been tiny. Like really tiny. Three people in one class is my record. Not only am I not making much money this way, I feel like the classes aren't as good without all the sharing that would go on if I had six or more participants sharing their point of view and ideas.

I'm taking a bit of a break after this class finishes, so I can enjoy my holiday. But then I'm going to kick it into gear after the first of the year. I'm thinking I'm going to get someone to help me do some additional advertising and see if I can't beef up my classes. I figure the first of the year is a great time to catch all the New Year's Resolution traffic.

PS: For those who are new to my blog, I started these classes a couple of months ago. It's a four week series of classes I teach to help women who are "domestically challenged" to empower themselves to get their houses clean and organized. It's similar to the Flylady system, if you're familiar with that, but I also bring in a number of other sources.

Those classes sound really, really intresting and I think it is a great idea - I hope you find some fabulous way to advertise and get it going with more students! Good luck. See you later - Kellan
