NEATLINGS: Utilizing Untapped Labor Forces for a Growing Business

NEATLINGS contracts with Advance Opportunities

There are many challenges with starting a small business. One of the more enjoyable challenges is finding ways to keep up with a growing demand.
To date I have personally collated each and every deck of NEATLINGS chore cards, but that is about to change. In total I have collated about 4000 decks of chore cards. Can you imagine? Strangely repetitive work doesn't really phase me too much but I know for many the idea of collating cards, deck after deck, can seem overwhelming and after 4000 it was starting to get to me too not to mention that it is simply time consuming.
As my little business has been growing I have found that I've needed to spend more and more time collating and packaging decks of chore cards to keep up with demand. The decks of chore cards are a mainstay of our product offerings. We sell them individually but we also include 1 deck of household chores and 3 decks of self-care chores with each of our chore chart systems. So as sales increase so does the labor needed to collate and package our decks of chore cards. It was getting to the point that the demand for NEATLINGS chore decks would outpace the time I had available to collate and prepare them. It was becoming evident that something needed to change and I needed a new solution soon.

I needed an affordable solution and if at all possible I wanted to keep it close to home.

Which is why I am so crazy excited to share that NEATLINGS has teamed up with, Advance Opportunities,  a local organization that provides quality employment opportunities and vocational training to adults with developmental, physical and other disabilities.  

​Advance Opportunities' employees excel at highly repetitive tasks. I don't think I could find a better match. What a beautiful partnership this is going to be!
Their employees offer several other services as well such as document imaging, assembly, full service car wash, and hotel, office, and business cleaning services.

If you need some help with your business why not give them a shout. You will get some (no doubt much deserved) help for your business and you will also be helping out this great non-profit organization or consider others like it. Click here to learn how Advance Opportunities can help your business or Google "disability employment programs/community/state" to find a similar organization in your area.

    Hi! I'm Robin

    Welcome to Robin's Blog on NEATLINGS. Here you will find loads of stuff on chores for kids & lots of free printables.

    Why Chores? I created a chore system for my kids that works amazingly! It's not like any chore system you've used before and it WORKS! So, with that you'll find lots of stuff on chores. Please check it out at our home page.

    I really enjoy making printables for kids. They are fun for the kids, they are fun to make, and I enjoy making something that I can share, so I just keep at it. I hope you find some you enjoy too. If you signup for our newsletter you will get access to all of our FREEBIES! You will see the signup form at the bottom of our home  page.

    I'm a born and raised big city girl who decided to move to a small town so that my husband could follow his dreams of being a farmer. I'm not ready to move to a farm place as my husband would like but we compromised on a darling small town, with heartwarming people, a beautiful community, and an absolutely fabulous school. With the move I left my fortune 500 career and became a stay at home mom to my 3 wonderful children.

    For the record I am not someone that loves chores or housework in fact it is quite the opposite I am not a very "domestic" gal but I love my children to all ends and because of that I strive to teach them everything they need and to cultivate contributing, confident, can-do kids!​
