655 Comments

This giveaway is now closed.

I met the founders of Blis (stands for Best Life Information System) at the Professional Organizer’s Conference I attended in November.  I was immediately drawn to their product because of their fabulous packaging but then once I heard what their product could do for busy families I was definitely hooked in.   I’m so excited to tell you about it today!

Blis is a web-based home & life organization system created by sisters Tricia Kolwicz and Tracy Coe.  Their system is designed to allow you to organize and simplify almost every aspect of your life and schedule on a secure online program without having to download any software.  Everything you need can be stored in one central location meaning you or your family can access your information and calendar from any browser or Internet-ready device, from laptops to iPhones.   This easy to use program is compatible with both PC and Mac computers.  It just doesn’t get more convenient than that!

I can’t even begin to tell you how impressed I was by what this system could do and track.  Really I was just blown away by the attention to detail and all the features.  The layout is so well organized and uncomplicated.  I just don’t like complicated.  I also especially appreciated the menu planning function and how easy it was to use and add your own recipes.  So great!

  1. I was getting a little worried till you said how uncomplicated it was. My biggest fear in new “systems” is when the system takes more time than just managing the stuff by hand, but I’m glad to hear you don’t think this is like that!

  4. This sounds like a great product! The packaging is sooo cute. I would love to win it. Off to research more about it.

  5. new to the site and would love to win the giveaway. thanks for sharing all your great info.

  11. This looks incredible! I would love getting to try this system, thank you so much for the give-a-way!

  12. Sounds like a system that is uncomplicated and straightforward. Right up my alley. 🙂

  19. Hi, this sounds like a wonderful system. I have most, but its scattered all over the place, where as this is all in one place and can be shared !

    Perfect,

    Bonnie

  25. Oh this looks wonderful! I definitely like that it’s uncomplicated – I hate trying a new system that’s so complicated I give up and go back to being unorganized! And the packaging is so cute!

  29. This looks amazing, and like something I could really use lately! I am struggling finding balance and trying to find time to write! ACK!

  43. Wow!! That looks like just what I need to organize my fun but busy life with 2 very energetic and little girls 🙂

  47. I just returned to work following the birth of my second child and I am really feeling the stress of needing to up my organizational level. There’s so much more to juggle now.

  51. This just might kick start all my good intentions!

    Thanks for the chance to win.
