If she paid for someone to come up with that name she needs her money back.

She should honestly have asked us lot to do the rebranding. We snark on her, but I bet we could have done a better job!

I honestly look at Jen's site and channel and I really have no idea what she is aiming for. I take one look at Alejandra and I instantly see she is catering to people who really love organising. I look at DIOAD and I instantly see that it is budget home-making. I know 'lifestyle' channels are all the rage, but they are hard to do well and easy to do badly. For a start, you really need to have a life to write about and it helps if you have family and friends who will get involved and become characters in your writing. I think to do the lifestyle thing well you need to do one thing each day that is worthy of a blog post. Jen is just too sporadic in that she only does a cooking vid or a book nook or an organisation vid now and again. To make this work she needs to have a routine something like home making on Monday, vlog on Wednesday, make-up reviews Friday or whatever.
I agree.

I actually like lifestyle vloggers. which is just a new way of them saying watch us live and stuff.
But I am SO OVER the whole this new mascara changed my life, this pink lipstick , similar to my 20000 other ones, is AH-Ma-Zing! ... That I'll take anything but Beauty crap.

I like Fleur and Lilipebble's vlogs. Those I look at as lifestyle vloggers - they travel -a LOT ( and show more than just the room) they have friends - mainly real life friends,( no connection to youtube which is a plus in my book, that are interesting on their own)

Jen USED to be a lifestyle vlogger when she did daily vlogs and she showed the tea, and her making 3 loads of laundry for her 3 dish rags, where she shopped, etc.
Now she's a youtuber with a brand that is just about: here's the box I got - look at the crap inside. This is the planner I got - look at it. This is me throwing money away with this purge.

NOW, I don't know what the woman is

People like ordinary stuff. Do it on a dime did a day in a life and it was as boring and ordinary as they come, yet I enjoyed it.
When They start to daily vlog, I start to hate them. I don't think I can handle ANY youtuber daily. But now and Then, I quite like those type of videos.

Maybe they took care of the trademark side of things and did the site design.

I really think that was all they were ever going to do. The 6 months must just be the time period it took for the approval of the trademark
US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) within approximately three months of filing the application. However, the total application processing time may be anywhere from 6 months to a year, or even longer.
.
The trademark hasn't been approved, though. The application was filed on March 31, but it's still going through the review process. (And the actual review by a trademark examiner at the trademark office often takes much closer to the full 12 months, or longer.) I'm not sure Ipso had anything to do with the trademark; the attorney on the application is located in Crystal Lake, Illinois, so probably a Jen choice.

The trademark application was filed as an "intent to use" application, which means the owner hasn't started using it. Additional documents have to be filed after she's using the trademark in order to make it an application that can actually become a registered mark (if it is approved).

Basically, I don't think the six month weirdness can be blamed on the trademark at all.

(All the gossip, and it's trademarks that convince me to make an account so I can comment. :roll: )
Thanks for this.
I always like when people from the field or with more in-dept knowledge jump in.

So, the damn ipso really just did the webdesign and took the pictures?
Now I am questioning why they said it would take them 6 months.

If it weren't for reading here, I would have thought that she left the internet at long last.

Excellent job, Jen. :roll:
She's dumb as hell. She didn't create a new twitter account to save the @organizedjen name so now anyone can register it and impersonate her. :?

Traveling to Ohio for a new website? This "pretty" much sums up Jen. I can't even calculate all the money she wasted on this.

So is PrettyNeatLiving a play on her hero PrettyShinySparkly? I'm so disappointed I figured her getting actual help doing this it might not end up such a total jenlike fail.

That kills me. Like there's not an appropriate branding agency in flippin' CHICAGO that would do a great job for her?!

Maybe she had to go to Ohio to find one that would take her. That agency seemed a bit fledgling anyway, maybe they needed the clients.

FFS Jen - changing the name of your Facebook page is the simplest thing around - and a way to keep your 70K subscribers as you'll never get that many back on your new page! :FU:

As we know you read here, go to About on your OLJ page and it brings up your page info - you can change both your name and your URL address from there.

I hope you are sending her an invoice charging her for this useful information!

I don't think I ever watched the broken Christmas tree fiasco. I think I only read about it. Hmm...
Anyone know which vlog that is? I like watching old Jen when new Jen pisses me off. :rofl:

https://twitter.com/organizedjen

That didn't take long. At first it was some random person following a bunch of Ohio-based accounts. Now they're just following Obama and Tosh. I hope it isn't Lisa/Jenxiety/Organized Hen. :?

Her instagram username is also available. I wonder if she'll let organizedjen.com lapse when it comes time to renew the domain registration. A domain squatter could probably make decent money from that site.

You didn't, you just registered a channel called PrettyNeatLiving... But the URL YouTube/prettyneatliving cannot be yours until you have 500 subs or prove ownership with a matching website or trademark.

Beleive me, Jen already has it.

I had never read her about me on her old blog before. It's pretty golden.

"What started out as an occasional hobby has now blossomed into a full-time career as an Original Content Creator. Pretty fancy buzzwords, right? It took me a long time to figure out how to label what I do between posting videos on YouTube and being a constant presence on other social media platforms. Add blogger to that list! I’m sure it will continue to grow as this journey unfolds.

Maybe now you can see that I am truly a Busy Bee at heart! I very much enjoy sharing my interests and bits of my life with you on YouTube and now through this blog as well. I post pretty consistently on Twitter and Facebook, with occasional stops to Pinterest, so feel free to follow me on those platforms if you’re interested (links to the right). The best place to catch me for a quick reply is on Twitter. I love reading all of your tweets, facebook posts, YouTube comments, messages, emails, & snail mail. Sharing is caring!"

I want to point out that Busy Bee is bolded on her own website. Man, she seriously took those comments to heart when she first got married about what she does all day.
