Often times when I talk to people about Darby, it is obvious that they know they need an inventory management system but are overwhelmed by the thought of putting one into place. I can tell you that I know the feeling because I was there too! I can also tell you, that once you get it done, you will wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. Just like other areas of your life or business, you can break it down into smaller pieces so it is more manageable. If your inventory includes furniture, take a category at a time and start entering it into Darby. You might choose to do all living room pieces, or even just sofas, then chairs, coffee tables etc. If your inventory does not include furniture, start with artwork, area rugs, lighting and then move on to the accessories. The key is to get started and to make sure that happens, add an event to your calendar. Schedule time at least once per week to work on your inventory.
