COMPUTER & DIGITAL ORGANIZING

Just as our homes can sometimes get cluttered, our computers and digital devices gather files, contacts, emails, photos, videos, and music over time. However, unlike our homes, which have only a few rooms, computers and phones can have hundreds of disorganized folders and random locations where vital (and less vital) items have been saved.

WHAT WE DO:

We offer a service to organize your computer, phone, and digital life remotely. Our experienced team can help you stay organized and safe at home by remotely managing your technology.

Here are some of the great things we will do:

  • Combine files and folders spread across computers and hard drives into one organized system

  • Archive and delete unused, duplicate, and unneeded files

  • Combine and deduplicate music libraries

  • Organize photos and ensure that they are backed up in the cloud

  • Enable backups, including cloud solutions.

  • Ensure safe password storage.

  • Upgrade drivers and fix application problems

  • Recommend new purchases

  • Review credit card, Apple, and Google Play accounts to eliminate old subscriptions.

Our remote service is handled through Zoom or another screen-sharing platform, and we can do most of the work without you needing to work from a computer.

 
 
 

DIGITAL LIFE ORGANIZING METHOD

Our organizing goal is achieved first by making everything easily findable and logically organized. Discuss your situation and goals over Zoom or other screen-sharing technology.

🖥💻For computers, after learning your needs, we:

  • Begin work without needing you!

  • Create a plan to break the work into 3-4 hour sessions.

    • Some clients only need one session; others may need 2-3 sessions.

  • At the end of each session, we will have a list of questions to review.

  • Typically, we would group the files into business and personal files.

    • We divide business files into client files, operations files, marketing and creative files, vendor files, etc.

    • We organize personal files by financial, family, projects, home, etc.

Tidy Haus just finished my whole computer (+ 4 hard drives!) organizing project and I can’t say enough about how good it feels to know where everything is and to have everything perfectly organized. Truly grateful for David’s work.
