"I wanted to let you know what a fabulous job you did speaking and how much of a pleasure it was to listen to your presentation. I think that office organization is an often overlooked topic, yet poor organization can affect every aspect of your business. Luckily, I was able to pick up some really great tips last night."

"If you can find 15 minutes extra each day - what would it be worth to you? I have always considered myself pretty organized, so I was impressed with the ideas that Laura was able to show me that saved me the time each day. Even just saving 20 minutes a day is a big deal. That is enough time for me to connect with a new client or spend time with my daughters."...
“Laura’s knowledge of the vast capabilities of Outlook was amazing. I learned more from her in 30 minutes about organizing within Outlook than I had been able to figure out on my own in 10 years.”

" I was at Denise's delivering product and heard a great compliment that I wanted to share with you. One of the gentlemen installing cabinet hardware told Denise that based on what the inside of her office cabinets and drawers looked like 'Martha Stewart would be envious of her organizational skills.' Denise told him all about you and told him that you were ve...
"Laura saved my sanity and helped my home-based business immeasurably. She has a unique ability to tackle the logistical problem head-on while dealing with the stress and frustration created by the situation simultaneously. I could not recommend anymore more strenuously!"

"The work Laura has done for us has required her to design and implement a process for the project, to listen well to our needs, goals and limitations, to work closely with members of our staff and to provide us with a plan of action we would undertake after our work with her was complete. I always had complete confidence in her leadership and management. In my interacti...

"Laura is very easy to communicate with and she knows how to get to the heart of a project very quickly. I would highly recommend Laura Leist and Eliminate Chaos to anyone needed organizational or computer-related services, no matter how simple or complex. Laura's background and experience offers a customer more advantages than one might think. Thank You Laura!&quo...
"Eliminate Chaos was a great find. I was over-whelmed by all that I needed to do and didn't know where to start. I now have all of my paperwork filed and have staging areas to be able to sort things into "sell", "donate", "keep" and "trash" categories. I needed the kick in the rear to get motivated again. Tina was friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. I have already and would continue to recommend them to anyone I know."

"I wanted you to know that your organizing expertise is perfect for educators like me who feel overwhelmed with so much to do! Your three specialists, Erin, Christine and Tina all came in and streamlined my classroom to perfection! It is warm and inviting with materials easy at hand yet is also efficient, functional and easy to maintain all because it is systematic. I now have a process that instills how and why it has been created yet simple enough to use and keep it functioning within set time limits rather than a feeling of an endless list of things to do! Thank you for creating more time for the energy needed to work with young children with an answer to fostering my own self worth as well!"
- Julie Frederick
"Tina was fabulous and went above and beyond by helping Liz (my 13-year-old) get excited about her new room, so I could give her brother the larger room to share. Sometimes they listen to others better than their own parents."
- Jennifer Blum
