Meet Amie Swan | Founder

We had the good fortune of connecting with Amie Swan and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Amie, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
I started OTG because I needed a solution that didn’t exist. Like many, I carried big totes but found myself constantly digging through a black hole to find what I needed. I began organizing my bag with a mishmash of cosmetic bags, pouches, and even Ziploc bags. While this makeshift system offered some order and protected my designer bag investments, it fell short of ideal. I envisioned a better alternative: a coordinated set of pouches that were not only easy to clean but also stylish enough to use as standalone accessories. This inspiration led to the creation of a brand offering various-sized bags that could be mixed, matched, and personalized. The result? A customizable organization system that’s functional, aesthetically pleasing, and versatile. At its core, OTG grew from a personal need, coupled with the realization that this desire was likely universal among bag-carriers on the go.
Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Our mission at OTG|247, On The Go, Twenty Four Seven is to simplify life on the go through thoughtful organization. We firmly believe that when you’re organized and put-together, you experience increased confidence and reduced stress and anxiety. This philosophy is at the core of everything we do.
What sets us apart is our unique blend of fashion AND function. When designing the brand, I was determined to create products that weren’t just practical, but also stylish enough to proudly carry and use in any setting. Our bags have a luxury feel that elevates your overall look while serving a crucial organizational purpose. I’m particularly proud of the materials we’ve chosen for our products. We use a high-quality vegan leather that offers exceptional functionality. The material is completely wipeable, making our bags incredibly easy to clean and maintain. This feature ensures that your OTG bags always looks pristine, no matter what life throws at it.
An added benefit of OTG bags is the protection they offer to your designer handbags. By organizing inside with our pouches, you create a barrier against potential spills and stains. This not only keeps the interior of your luxury bags clean but also helps maintain their overall condition, increasing their longevity and preserving their value.
One of our most exciting features is our customization capability. We offer the option to add a name, monogram, or logo to your OTG bags. This customization not only makes your bag uniquely yours but also adds an extra touch of sophistication and exclusivity to an already stylish product.
There are countless uses for OTG products, from organizing makeup and toiletries to tech gadgets and cords, or even keeping baby essentials neatly arranged. This multi-functionality makes our bags an indispensable part of daily life. In essence, OTG is more than just a brand of organizational products. We’re providing a solution that enhances your daily life, boosts your confidence, and does so with style. By choosing OTG, you’re not just organizing your belongings – you’re streamlining your lifestyle, protecting your valuable possessions, and doing it all with an added touch of luxury and personal flair.
Get organized & GO!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would like to dedicate my shoutout to my husband, Jack! He was the driving force that pushed me to transform my business idea from a recurring topic of conversation into a reality. His words, “either do it or stop talking about it,” were the push I needed to embark on my entrepreneurial journey. While it’s my business, Jack has embraced the vision and made it a part of our shared future. His constant support and enthusiasm have made this feel like a team effort, even though he’s not directly involved in day-to-day operations. In essence, Jack is my rock and my support system. I’m incredibly grateful for his partnership and I can confidently say that without him, this dream might have remained just that – a dream.
