This is a place to be organised and calm
When we kept everything on paper, organised people had these things called filing cabinets. They stored all of their documents in them in a structured way so that they could find them again.
Now, your computer lets you put anything anywhere you want. You're expected to manage vastly more information than was ever stored on paper. And you do this yourself, without any training or support.
Nobody can find anything any more. This is stressful, and a massive waste of time. Here at Johnny.Decimal we've been helping people organise information since 2013. We're here to help. Welcome.
A focus on small business
In 2026 we decided to focus our efforts on helping small businesses. We run one ourselves, and we know how tough it is. You're trying to sell the thing you're good at, but there's this massive overhead: all the stuff a large organisation hires an Operations Manager to do, at $120k/year.
Our job is to make this as easy as possible for you. We produce tools, systems, training, and provide a high-touch support community. While we can't actually file your taxes for you, we can remove much of the stress.
"As a small engineering business … we have recently completely switched to the Small Business System for our business administration and document filing system … everything has a logically defined place and more importantly, it's easy for someone else to find that document again when they need it."
— Des Pitfield, Datum Machines, NZ
It works everywhere
You might not run an actual 'small business'. You might be the person at work who wants to be more organised; who wants to get ahead. We think of you as a 'business of one' within your organisation. You'll fit in here.
And it works just as well at home, if you're keen. Or at that community club you help run, or at the local school, or pretty much anywhere else.
A personal business
Johnny.Decimal is me, Johnny, and my partner Lucy. After running this website as a hobby for a decade, we realised that it needed our full attention. We quit our jobs, and since 2023 we have both worked full time making stuff that helps people to be more organised.
We do this all by hand. All of our products are made with hundreds of hours of human effort. I answer every message personally and know hundreds of members of our community. This is our life and it shows.
"Thanks again for all the work you're doing on this. The internet is brimming with catchy strategies and colorful systems for tracking or organizing notes, thoughts, files, pics, etc., but I feel like y'all are the only people building a foundation for living in the digital age."
— Jeff Lovett, Lovett Sundries, PA USA
What happens next?
You're still here. That's a good sign. The disorganised ones have drifted back to their social media accounts. Here's what we do now.
We have a program for small business that includes our Small Business System and a growing support network with us at the centre, for just US$360. That's not a subscription: that's it, forever. It includes everything listed below and updates for life.
Our training and courses are all packaged up at Johnny.Decimal University. Over 20 hours of video, and everything we produce in the future, for just US$210, and it includes…
…the Life Admin System for those of you who want to get your home life in order, fast. That's just US$35.
Everything comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee. If you're not happy, just let me know and I'll refund you. No questions asked.
If you're not ready to commit, you can sign up for a free account. In the welcome series, I'll walk you through a quick 5-step getting-organised process. Then you'll know if this is for you or not.
Part of our promise is that we always respect your time: don't worry that signing up will stick you in a loop of emails. That's not who we are.
Finally, if you'd rather just look around, the best place to start is with the introduction to the system. You can always get to the site's index page by clicking the / at the top left.
You came here looking to be more organised. However you achieve that, I wish you well. Let me know what I can do to help.
