Heather Knittel

Being organized is a trait that comes easy to some. Others must devote time to learn it. Being highly organized comes naturally to Heather who started a career in health care, moved on to property management and, for 16 years, had a successful career in sales promotion and community relations in the broadcast industry. Her interest in Feng Shui led her to her fascination and love for keeping clutter under control.

Heather teaches clients that everything we own holds good and bad memories for us. The things we surround ourselves with in our homes radiate an energy that we all instinctively know is present. She encourages clients to remove or discard things that are meaningless to them. This simple action opens doors to infinite possibilities of change.
One of the corner stones of the Good Riddance approach is to ensure excess belongings are recycled or re-used.
Heather is a member of the National Study Group for Chronic Disorganization and the Professional Organizers in Canada (POC).

Marlene Peters

Heather Knittel - Professional Organizer Good Riddance Professional Organizing Solutions is pleased to announce the newest member of our team and small business/home office specialist Marlene Peters.

One of the biggest challenges in running your own business is keeping track of paper. Business development, marketing and serving customers seems to always take priority over recording and calculating all of the day-to-day details that it takes to run your successful business. Marlene has an instinctive and logical approach to all forms of record keeping. With over 30 years working in an office environment, she is well aware of the frustration of not being able to find the paperwork you need.

Where others see undefeatable mountains of paper and numbers, Marlene sees labeled file folders and spreadsheets. Dealing with the records required for managing a household or business is something that is obtainable to ensure your time is spent productively and that elusive receipt or tax information is at your fingertips. Marlene spent 30 years in a key national financial position in the broadcasting industry which included the care and control of client accounts, financial reporting and the directorship of a large financial installation project. Good Riddance is delighted to have Marlene on board.

To find out how Marlene can help you to kiss those piles and shoeboxes goodbye, call us for an appointment at 604 421 5952.
