I’d like to start up a side business as an organizational coach. I want to help people organize their space and/or gain time management skills. I have been reading a lot and have lots of great ideas, but I don’t know how to get started. I have placed a few ads on craigslist, but haven’t gotten any responses. I would be willing to start helping a few people for free to get going and start some word-of-mouth marketing. Any other ideas??
