There’s no better time than spring to tend to the messy parts of your business and shake off the dust. This week, our readers share how they keep their work organized and decluttered.

We want to help you make more money — right now. All month, go Back to Basics with Inman as real estate pros share what’s working now and how they’re setting up to profit in a post-pandemic world.

Pulse is a recurring column where we ask for readers’ takes on varying topics in a weekly survey and report back with our findings.

Going back to basics often means refreshing the fundamentals, tidying up the messy parts and organizing what’s piled up in your business. And there’s no better time than spring to shake out the dust in often-neglected parts of your business and participate in the dignified ritual known as spring cleaning.

So, last week, we asked you to share your organization and decluttering habits with us. We wanted to know the tried-and-true tricks you use to keep your CRM updated and organized, your client communication streamlined and your finances in order.

However, in looking at the smattering of responses we received, it seems like our readers have yet to get cracking on spring cleaning this year. Want to chime in on how to keep your business in tip-top shape? We’d like to continue the conversation in the comments section!
