Prediction: On the Fence
Being a fastidious Virgo, this item appeals to me personally. But will it appeal to enough people to make the campaign a success? I'm not sure. My thoughts on organizational items have changed given the surprising (to me, anyway) success of Merchant Media's Swivel Store. However, I still believe most people are Oscar Madisons not Felix Ungars, meaning they are unlikely to be excited by items like these.
My rule of thumb is: One success is an outlier; three successes is a category. Still keeping track and waiting to see if organization is a DRTV category and how that category might be defined. If this one hits, we'll all be a little smarter.
