I’m soooo glad I can say “I knew her before she became a household name after her appearance on the Nate Berkus show!”
Yaaaaay Melody! You totally ROCK the AWESOME!
I’m soooo glad I can say “I knew her before she became a household name after her appearance on the Nate Berkus show!”
No really, you are helping people in big ways…and I know firsthand! I’m kind of addicted now to looking around at things and asking myself if they serve me anymore, and if not, putting them in the appropriate place. Also, not being cheap and making small investments on simple things for organizing that make a BIG difference!
It’s a whole new mindset and lady you are responsible!! Thank YOU!!!!
Kelly Courson, New York www.CeliacChicks.comThanks to her support, my office received a fresh coat of paint and brand new carpet!
I started re-doing my office early this year and needed some help to keep me motivated and moving forward with the project, as well as some ideas on how to organize the room and make everything look nice while being easy to use. Melody gave me both!”
She gave me the support and accountability I needed to get things done and had some great ideas on how to set things up that would work for me. Thanks to her support, my office received a fresh coat of paint, brand new carpet, and is far better organized than ever before!
I love how Melody would send me links for ideas for different types of shelves, bookcases, and other furniture or tools to help me decide what I wanted to use in my office. I certainly wouldn’t have taken the time to go look for those ideas myself, and it was so great to have her suggest things.
Jess Webb, Ontario, Canada www.jessilicious.com Branding Specialist & Website DesignerI feel more calm, relaxed, and happy! I can find my things without looking around frantically like I used to!
Melody taught me many organizing principles that have stayed with me long since her program ended. Since I’ve gotten so many areas in my house organized, I have much greater peace of mind. Most importantly, the areas that I organized with Melody’s help have stayed organized. I got rid of (trash or donated) many items that were no longer serving me, which felt absolutely wonderful.
The number one thing that I love about Melody is that she never makes me feel bad about being unorganized in the first place. I’ve definitely felt bad about this myself. She genuinely wants to help people and has always gone above and beyond in delivering her services. I loved that the Spring Cleaning program had a forum for the participants to post our progress and our results. The social accountability factor worked wonders for me. All of the other participants and I kept cheering each other on in our organization efforts throughout the course of the program.
I am so grateful to Melody for everything she’s helped me with, and I would have easily paid much, much more than the cost of her program to get the results that I got with her. The benefits of having an organized home are tremendous and I’m so happy that I decided to participate in her Spring Cleaning Program. Now, I’m working with Melody to organize my home business office. I very highly recommend Melody Granger to anyone who wants to have a greater sense of peace, calm, and serenity in their life.
Cassie Winterhalter , Rockville, MD Winterhalter MusicI love opening my closet and seeing all my things organized.
Closet Chat is an excellent tool to give your closet a face lift. You give INCREDIBLE suggestions that are easy to follow and implement. The direction is clear and the product links in your email are BRILLIANT!
I have to say, the support prompted me to throw out 3 bags of clothes, a piece of storage that I had been meaning to toss for 3 years and now I love opening my closet and seeing all my things organized.
It is apparent that you are a total PRO! THANK U!!
Erin Stutland, New York www.ErinStutland.com Lifestyle + Fitness Coach, Writer + Television HostI was so grateful to have had her in my life! She taught me so much more than just uncluttering and organizing my home.
I thought I could organize my place on my own…I’ve been thinking that for the last 5 years!! I finally decided that enough was enough and that I needed someone who could coach me through it. I want to get the year started off right and by that I mean that I don’t want to worry anymore about having to organize this or that…I want to do more of the things that I want to do for fun, like read, study (yes, studying is fun for me 
), take LONG walks, catch up with friends, etc.
When I read Melody’s blog, I just felt that she would get me and that she wouldn’t judge me and I KNEW someone with that much passion for organizing could definitely whip me into shape.
My phone calls with Melody were so easy. She really gets me to a relaxed place with her voice. She’s what I would call a “non-anxious presence” in therapist’s lingo She slowed me down and I didn’t feel overwhelmed at all! It’s almost hypnotizing because I continued to feel relaxed even after we hung up!
While I was sad to be ending my private coaching calls with Melody, I was so grateful to have had her in my life! She taught me so much more than just uncluttering and organizing my home. Many of the things that she said I was actually able to apply to my personal life and work. I find myself repeating “a little at a time” like Melody would say while I’m at work or when I have to put things away in the home and, all of a sudden, “a little at a time” usually helps finish the job faster without even trying that hard!
Melody is just so supportive and empowering and knows what she’s talking about!! I know it sounds like she paid me to write this but, seriously, she did – just kidding. I can’t say enough good things about her, but be prepared to put in some work and meet her halfway. She’ll support you with ideas, thinking things thoroughly, sending follow up emails to check in and she gets to know you so well that she’ll even recommend fun items that you could like (and she’s spot on!) Melody was not only my professional organizer, she was my friend and my cheerleader. Thank you, Melody!!
I swear, just being “around” you makes me more organized! No Joke.
Melody…I never really thought of working with a professional organizer before, but I’ve learned tons from your videos and blog posts. I swear, just being “around” you makes me more organized! You wouldn’t believe how much difference it’s made to my closets. No joke.
In fact, I was looking at my spic and span bathroom counter top today and thinking proudly, I should send a picture to Melody and show her how organized she’s helped me become! (my bathroom counter is notorious for miscellaneous makeup and jewelry scattered everywhere)

Watch Amber’s closet video! She’s so much fun. Thanks for coming out of the closet with this video, Amber!!! 
And here’s an update from Amber…after we had a lil’ Closet Chat! She’s well on her way to adding the final touches I recommended.

I feel relieved…happy…like I can move on.
From start to finish, you are there. You never let me lose my way.
It gets done and I feel relieved, happy, like I can move on.
People I know now don’t believe me when I tell them how much stuff I used to have! When I’m shopping I always think of what you told me “Before you buy something and bring it into your home, imagine a year down the road and ask yourself if it is important enough that you’ll be using it in a year. If not, think twice about bringing it into your home.”
I still remember when you started your business years ago. I probably owe you credit for at least half of my sanity & SUCCESSES!
Elizabeth Saffell, Prairieville, LA Raw Food & Nutrition Specialist +Yoga Instructor + Mom of Two
After each session, whether in-home or Get It Done! by phone, I’ve felt a great sense of accomplishment.
You make a real effort to understand my “messiness” and have helped me come up with solutions that work for me.
The effect is great both short and long term.
After each “Get It Done!” session I’ve felt a great sense of accomplishment. Then at some point the cumulative effect of all the sessions became evident. Thank you, Melody!”

Finally!… just took a few minutes. It made me feel wonderful.
I have been working so much lately and have finally had the time to get hangers and get it done…just took a few minutes. It made me feel wonderful.
Looks great in my closet. Even got the shoes organized. Thanks for your suggestions. I love it!
Tina Thibodaux, Baton Rouge, LA Canvas Artist ExtraordinaireHey Tina, You’re welcome & OMG!!! That’s FABULOUS! Thanks for sharing the beautiful closet pic. Melody
You really have made a big difference in our lives! I told you then and I’ll say it again, you really are worth much more than what you charge!
If I had not made that 1st call to you, I guarantee that I would still have piles and piles of junk in the closets.
You saw them before the transformation — you couldn’t even walk in them. We didn’t even have any idea of what was at the bottom of the pile! We’ve been in the house for two and a half years and I know that without you and your plans, my closets would still be full of clutter and I would be too overwhelmed to do anything about it!
On top of that, it really was nice to have an excuse to get rid of things we didn’t need. Then the idea spread to other places. Now if I go shopping for clothes for myself, I throw a few old pieces away before I hang the new. My utility room has two shelves of clear bins. In the bins are the kids’ art supplies, play-doh, light bulbs, extension cords, cat treats and toys, owner’s manuals. I even have a junk drawer that is organized!
The first time I called you was right after my oldest child got diagnosed with ADD. What is the first thing parents are told to do to help their kids with ADD? Make sure they are organized. Well, I have ADD, too. At that time, I couldn’t even get organized myself much less show him how to do it. With your help, both my son and I fixed a really big problem and our lives are much easier and less anxious without the piles of clutter to overwhelm us!
You really have made a big difference in our lives! I told you then and I’ll say it again, you really are worth much more than what you charge!”
Jennifer Wallace, Lake Charles, LA
Your organizational skills are top notch.
You helped me clear out a kitchen cabinet when I had weevils. And, you have done innumerable tasks in between the attic and kitchen.
Mostly you have helped with all of the chores in my home office. You have done hours of searching and clearing up problems on the phone or computer.
I enjoy working with you and always feel a great sense of accomplishment after you have been here a few hours. While you are here, I’m able to tackle jobs that I otherwise put off. Your organizational skills are top notch.
I don’t recall any labor that you weren’t willing to undertake. The list of things that you have done with and/or for me are too numerous to categorize.
I have worked with another Organizer before. You are much better at compromising to find a plan that works for me instead of trying to impose your will on my life. I would highly recommend you to anyone.
Stacy Shearman, Lake Charles, LA Community Cheerleader, Historic District Advocate
Melody, you have been such a gift for me! I brag about you to everyone.
I brag about you to everyone. Since moving into a smaller house four years ago, the accumulation of over 60 years of marriage has been in boxes nearly filling my garage.
Since your arrival my files have been organized, memorabilia has been delegated to save, pass on to my children, give away, or throw away.
Working with someone else puts things in perspective for me. If you are like me in having someone with you to be more efficient, Melody is the one!

Melody gave me motivation to get started. She has a real gift to get people moving!!!
I went looking for Melody because I needed to get my house in order. I found her by searching for professional organizers online and sent an email. When I first spoke to Melody I could tell she would get me to a place where I wanted to be. Not only did she help me get my house in order, she has become a very good friend, also.
Melody gave me motivation to get started. She has a real gift to get people moving!!! She came in and made me feel comfortable and never said anything in a negative tone and never made me feel uncomfortable.
I love being able to have people look into my rooms and even look in the closets, too. I love that Melody has a gift to help people and make us feel accepted no matter what and I love her personality and get it done attitude.
I really want to say THANK YOU so much. I’ve really enjoyed working with you, Melody.
Vivian Elkins, Louisiana
Melody was a godsend. With her help I was able to declutter and organize my surroundings quickly and free of stress.
Stuff here, stuff there, stuff everywhere. UGH! That is how I felt until I met Melody Granger.
I function better when my environment is calm and serene. Who doesn’t? But my surroundings had become cluttered and I felt as though I was going in circles trying to get things straight by myself.
I went online and found Melody along with several other organizers. I chose Melody not only because she was prompt in responding, but also because her website was the most informative and professional.
Melody was a godsend. With her help I was able to declutter and organize my surroundings quickly and free of stress. Melody showed me how to organize and more importantly how to stay organized.
Working with Melody was a delight. She was able to take what I considered an awful task and make it easy.
Rachel Hale, Roanoke, La Author, Screen-WriterI am so very thankful for you, Melody! Working with you is the best thing I’ve done for myself in a very long time!
Previously, I thought I had to keep EVERYTHING! FOREVER! Years of paperwork was piled and stuffed into boxes and bins until they filled what was supposed to be the guest room/office. I couldn’t find what I needed and felt too overwhelmed to figure out how to tackle the chaos. I needed some serious help!!
I was discouraged to find that there were no professional organizers in my area and felt doomed to either live in clutter forever or pay a ridiculously high fee to have someone travel to me. Then I found your site! I was ecstatic to discover your phone coaching service AND tons of useful information to help me!
I made huge accomplishments, with your help. I cleared out and rearranged items in my gift/seasonal closet and in the entire bedroom. Your suggestions have made my filing system easily accessible. Now what I need is nicely tucked away in one drawer of a lateral file cabinet. In the event of an emergency, someone else can easily find the necessary information…and…I now have a place in my “office” to SAVE THE DATE!!!!
Working with you has been an absolute pleasure! You never made me feel that I was being judged or doing something wrong, but always celebrated even the smallest bits of progress and kept me encouraged to continue. You have an amazing ability to help people find a more productive way to do things, in a manner tailored to their style and personality.
I guess we all need a little pat on the back when we’ve worked hard, and maybe that’s why I never “Got It Done” completely…no one EXPECTED me to, or held me ACCOUNTABLE to finish it. Thanks for believing in me and for all you’ve helped me achieve. Working with you is the best thing I’ve done for myself in a very long time!
Sincerely,
Mary Pujol, Bunkie, Louisiana
Mary, You are very welcome. I never doubted you. Melody
Melody, After the presentation, I felt motivated to come home and look at an area where I could eliminate some items and organize it a little better.
I like what you said about starting in just one area, because if we look at our whole home we feel overwhelmed, get discouraged and never start. In the next few years my husband and I plan to retire and move to the State where our children live. He says we are not moving everything.
We are planning on downsizing to a smaller home, so this caused me to begin thinking of items that really do not have the same value they once did. It is time to recycle those to someone else or maybe even the trash. Thanks for a motivating presentation.
Judy Mason, Lake Charles, LA
Melody, you bring more than organization, it is transformation. Thank you again for being such a positive, life changing force for us this year.
You came in open, non-judgmental and really you created a system totally around me, not fitting me into some preconceived ideas.
Your help corralling my paper clutter was the best thing I did for myself this year. Thank you again for being such a positive, life changing force for us this year.”

Thank you for making my life so much better. I never imagined being clutter free would make such a difference!
Melody, I have been thinking about you everyday and I am so glad I googled you!
My life, mind, and home are forever indebted to you. I sit to pay bills and it takes about one third of the time it used to take – with so much less frustration because everything is right there in one spot.
I love my pantry – walking in it is now fun, not a chore! My attic is actually pleasant to walk around in now, too. I still have photos to organize and, of course, I would love to finish my cookbook. I need to talk to you about those chores, when you have time. I still have clutter problems, but I do take the time to put things where they belong after a couple of days.
Thank you for making my life so much better. I never imagined being clutter free would make such a difference!
Kathryn Devall, Hackberry, LA Extremely Talented Seamstress + Lover of Life
Investing in your services was an investment in my sanity!
Dear Melody, This is the chance I’ve been waiting for!
I’ve found the right person for the job. You are very prompt, scheduled, efficient, and, of course, organized. You are very familiar with the tricks of the trade that is making my life easier.
Investing in your services was an investment in my sanity! Well worth it! Living in an unorganized environment will only hold you back from accomplishing important things in life. The money I put into this service pays back generously! The professionalism I receive from you is a bonus.
Peace to You.
Nadine Burrough Wise, Lake Charles, LA (Nadine, you will be missed. Melody)
We absolutely love the wonderfully functional closet you designed for our new house.
The ideas for storage that you gave me are helping me keep it more organized than ever before. The storage bench in the center of the closet is perfect for my husband’s boots; he doesn’t leave them scattered all over the house anymore.
I have eliminated a lot of clothes we no longer need, per your suggestions, and find that we both have a workable wardrobe at our fingertips, for both work and dress occasions.
I am recommending you to everyone who asks about storage and closet solutions. Thanks, Melody!”
Lenora Poole, Grand Lake, LA
Thank you! Thank you! Let me tell you, that hard work was not in vain.
I needed some pics for my senior child’s High School Graduation slide show and guess what? I knew where to find them! So thank you!
Had we not organized that day he would only have CURRENT pics to be embarrassed with.
Belinda Avery, Lake Charles, LA Premiere Designs Jewelry ConsultantIt is now extremely functional!
My baking center was in chaos. You didn’t spend any time on it, but looked at it as you were leaving and told me how to arrange it. It is now extremely functional!
Jan V., Prairieville, LA
It sure was nice coming back to a clean and organized office. I have had lots of compliments on how nice my office looks. Thanks, Melody.
I used to have a hill of paperwork on my desk when we first began our sessions.
Due to the fast pace demands of my job, my productivity was very bad and work kept ‘piling up’ on my desk. I was only putting out fires and other work was being delayed.
When someone requests information I can easily locate the information quickly, whether it is electronic or within my filing system — and stay mentally focused on the task I am working on, then continue on with other tasks.
It sure was nice coming back to a clean and organized office. I’ve accomplished more today than I normally would due to the organization of my office and electronic filing system.
And I have had lots of compliments on how nice my office looks.
Thanks, Melody. This is a major bonus for me because I do not have to live in my office so much. Now my files, both electronic and hard copy, are well organized and at my fingertips.
Danny Kingham, Sulphur LA Maintenance Superintendent, Westlake Chemical Corp.Oh what a difference you have made. I am organized, finally!
You are a pleasure to be around – wonderful ideas – great personality – very patient and extremely thorough.”
