Our patients have also commented that the office feels more spacious and brighter. I look forward to having you come and organize my home and personal life too.

Judy has delivered quality classes...for many years at Parker Seminars. She builds rapport immediately and has a wonderful quality about her that allows attendees to open up to her and not to feel intimidated about any question they might ask. They feel very good about themselves when they leave her classroom and they definitely feel empowered to go back to their office and implement what they have learned from Judy. Judy connects very well because she is articulate, credible, and very comfortable in her role of presenting to the audience. Her body language and movement brings you into what she is saying. Her material is easy to follow and easy to see yourself doing what she is telling you to do.
She is a first class professional and she has contributed to the success that Parker Seminars have enjoyed…
Sheryl Sodorff former Director of Development Parker College and Parker Seminars

"I am very happy to share our experience contracting with Debbie Hoover to organize our busy health care practice.
Debbie visited our office in May 2001 , when we were in the midst of building out our new rental suite. Debbie's eye for detail and sensible approach to organization have paid huge benefits to us in the past four years. She successfully laid the foundation for our regular employees to build upon as we have grown and expanded our practice.
Most of all, Debbie's good humor and positive attitude are two of her best attributes. She's a pleasure to work with, and very successful at what she does.
If I may offer any other comments about her work with us, please contact me."

"From one of Judy's participants in a Go System Training Session: I have always been a very organized and efficient person at work and at home, I have been accused of ‘trying to fit twenty items into a ten item day.’ Well, what has happened to me then is that I end up fatigued and frustrated...The Go System has taught me…how to handle unwanted interruptions, how to stop attempting to do too much…and how to give up dysfunctional perfectionism. I have always said that work well planned is work half done. With the Go System methods of organizing I find that indeed my work is now half done after the Go System’s planning!!!."
Mary Copper Program Coordinator, Iowa City Housing Authority
"This letter is to tet you know about the wonderful organizing and de-ciuttering services provided by our NET 'sister,' Debbie Hoover.
Have you ever gotten to the purging date on your calendar that you set at a NET Success week and not had a clue about how to proceed? Or have you purged oniy to find that the previous tevel of clutter reappeared within weeks? Or do you shudder at the very thought of purging and organizing your home and office? If so, Debbie may provide the help you need.
My husband, Dan, and I have been to many NET Successes, which have helped us enormously. However, our answers to the questions I posed to you above have been a resounding "yes" for many years. And although most aspects of our lives and our effectiveness have improved with NET, our sense of order and physical organization (especially at home) has not. Our experience has been that while purging is necessary and effective, its benefits simply do not last unless one has effective systems in place. So, last spring, we hired Debbie Hoover to work with us and the results were wonderful.
Debbie spent 6 days with us, divided between our home and office. Together with Debbie, we went through almost all of our dysfunctional piles and stashes and organized everything from file drawers at the office to kitchen cupboards at home. Debbie helped us replace disorganization and chronic messes with systems that work for our children and us. When we got to emotional blocks, we did NET and tiien forged ahead.
If you want more information from either Dan or me, fee! free to call us and we'll be happy to discuss this with you.
Wishing you health, happiness and order!"
Virginia Shapiro
"I had the pleasure of working with Debbie Hoover recently, and found her organizational skills and assistance to be extremely helpful in rny document-intensive trial practice.
As a recovering pack-rat, my desk and personal filing system left much to be desired.
Debbie quickly diagnosed my organizational problems and offered clear, practical solutions for regaining control over my mess. I recommend her highly to other professionals and anyone needing guidance in getting organized and staying focused on important tasks.
Please do not hesitate to call me with any questions about Debbie or her valuable services."
John M. Cummings
"Dear Debbie,
Thank you so much for an entertaining and dynamic session on time management and organization, using "The GO System." The success of TCU's management training depends on having good speakers and presentations, and you far exceeded both of those requirements! The reviews from your program have been fabulous, and word-of-mouth about your presentation has increased interest in bringing you back for a repeat performance. You left them hungry for more, which was just what we need for a successful training program. You couldn't have planned a more perfect event.
Thank you again for a wonderful program. You are on my permanent list of speakers!"
Susan Oakley, TCU training Manager
"This letter of recommendation is for Ms. Debbie Hoover of Back on Track! Solutions. Unity Church of Ft. Worth moved into our existing building four years ago. The previous church (left many items in our youth education department. In addition, we did not organize before our move to the new church. We needed help!
This past summer Ms. Hoover provided her services and helped organize our entire youth education department. She helped organize the resource room as wdi as the classrooms. We found her professionai and efficient.
She cleared clutter, trash and years of unnecessary items. Then she put systems in place to help us stay organized. I would highly recommend her for future jobs in churches as well as other businesses. Please feel free to call me for references."
Lorry Eden Youth and Family Ministry Director
"I have enlisted the help of Debbie Hoover and [Back on Track! Solutions] on two separate occasions. She has been most helpful in getting our house more organized. I was a bit apprehensive to call her in due to my embarassment about certain areas that were total messes! She came in and was very kind and was not judgemental at all. She made me feel like the tasks were not unsurmountable as I had thought.
The most important testament of Debbie's work is that our house has remained just as organized as Debbie left it. My children and I find it so much easier and less time consuming to put away now that everything has a sensible and logical location.
I am so appreciative of the help Debbie gave us."

Letter of Recommendation for Debbie Hoover, Back on Track Solutions
July 19, 2007
To All Interested Parties,
I would like to heartily recommend Debbie Hoover of Back on Track! Solutions for GO System Time Management/Productivity training.
Debbie met with me in advance to determine what our employees’ needs were. She provided me with a copy of the course materials to review thoroughly to ensure a good fit. I was extremely impressed with the professional quality of the GO System portfolio and its associated materials, which included a very thorough 96-page manual full of exercises and a CD-Rom of productivity resources.
In addition, Debbie donated three additional related GO System books for our resource library, which further define and crystallize key productivity concepts. The books offer a wealth of information and reinforcement. They cover a wide range of topics, and articles are offered by numerous GO System specialists throughout the country. They are a great read.
To further motivate course participants, Debbie also sent follow-up tips and offered her time to come back and work with anyone who attended the course and needed more hands-on help.
Debbie was very flexible with respect to our 24/7 work environment and cheerfully accommodated our scheduling needs. She gladly received and acted on feedback from course participants to address their comments and implement improvements.
Here are some comments from class participants as to things Debbie did well:
- General conversation and interaction with class was excellent!
- She was easy to listen to; she had everything together. It was almost like she wrote everything. She was very purposeful and knowledgeable. She was very efficient. A great lady. Thank you!
- Keeping everyone focused and on course.
- Allowing the group to give input and interact with the workshop.
- Getting the staff to open up and getting them to participate. Allowing the class to be involved.
- Helping organize and get back on track.

- She spoke well and clear. Easy to listen to. Easy to understand.
- Spoke well on the topics at hand. Spoke on levels that all departments can take back to their areas.

Testimonials:
Thank you for offering the GO class yesterday. It was GREAT! Of all the training classes of this type that I have attended in the past, this one was by far the best! There are many things that she taught us that I will be able to apply to my work setting (and my home setting.) I don't think of myself as being disorganized really, but after the class I now have so many ways that I can become "better" organized and able to focus more on various responsibilities! I got more out of this class that any that I can remember! Thanks again for all that you do for us! -- Chrissy Anderson
The Go System is a beautifully presented and packaged approach to getting organized. It is simple, focused, effective and easy to initiate. I love the “control point drawer” concept. It will allow me to remove the items I normally keep on my desk as my “tickler” system. I will also be able to get rid of my post-it notes. I love the ability to prioritize quickly without becoming overwhelmed and wasting time deciding how and when. It has already allowed me to do away with some of the existing files I had and I plan on condensing my filing system even more.
I have started using my calendar in a more supportive way to keep track of meetings, deadlines and follow-up calls (again – less dependence on post-it notes). Two of the key points in the presentation were 1) breaking larger projects into smaller segments and 2) to stop multitasking. Society brainwashes you into thinking that if you can’t multitask you are not successful.
I have seen many people in my department setting up their new systems, which is proof in itself of what a wonderful system it is. If people don’t use something, it won’t work. My department is definitely adopting the GO System.
I would recommend that some time in the near future there be a follow-up session for the employees that went through the course to compare notes, ask questions and offer up additional ideas that they have incorporated into their new system.
Thank you so much for bringing this course to the employees of Carter BloodCare. It really lets the employees know that they are important to the company.

I appreciate the opportunity to recommend Debbie Hoover of Back on Track! Solutions. Sincerely,
Debbie Liles Director, Corporate Education Carter BloodCare
Sandra, thank you very much for all your time, patience, expertise, and hard work in turning my clutter and disoriented filing system into a smooth-running and easy-to-use home office. I am happy to refer you to anyone who needs an Executive Launch. You are a joy to work with.

Thanks for everything Sandra! The strategies that I learned at the Go Workshop have really made a huge impact on my life. I am more organized, I feel less stressed by the "things I need to do," and most importantly, I am getting everything done that I need to do! When I went on vacation about a month later, I came back and went a week without getting back into it – BIG MISTAKE! I wondered what was going wrong when I suddenly realized that the only thing different was that I was not using my new organizational methods. Once I rectified that situation, once again, within days, I felt more in control and less stressed. I can highly recommend the GO system to anyone that feels overwhelmed, out of control, or who feels they cannot get all done in a day that they need to do. This system has helped me tremendously.-
