Staged Home Sells in 4 days

WOW, what a phone call! Staging homes as a profession is such a great and fullfilling life. Mike from Ohio just called me, "I'm so excited I had to call......we just sold the house....I know you told me to be prepared for a quick sale but WOW".

You see this really isn't magic. It is "Planning the work AND working the plan".

AFTER

BEFORE

The Staging industry is a viable business because IT WORKS!

The seller had taken the closet doors off and replaced them with matching curtains. I had the doors put back on and used the curtains as a Headboard.

Staging your home in this economy is a must. We, Design By DesAnn of Ohio, have Staged and SOLD 10 homes in less then one week in the last 6 months.

If you are looking to sell please find a professional Stager. The seller also needs to be committed to make changes. Yes it is a lot of work but IT WORKS.

There were a few of these homes that only had made a $250.00 investment with us. Some invested 1%-3% of the sales price. Staging is affordable.

Let us help you sell!

My best,

Blessings of A Decorator/Stager Business

I wanted to say thanks for my amazing life. The SDP, Society of Decorating Professionals, has helped me on my journey. For those of you considering a career as an Interior Decorator or a Home Staging specialist, I wanted to share with you the bounty of greatness that may occur.

I have been literally "showered" with abundance. My hubby and I were discussing how fantastically "lucky" I am. You need to understand that the "luck" has come from hard work, dedication, passion & education.

You see, in the past few months, I have hardly had a day off. I have been privileged to be a part of my client's lives. I have helped to "Stage To Sell" and have done several "Decorating" projects.
I came home Saturday and announced to my hubby, "I am THE luckiest person on Earth". I do not know very many people who get to:

DO WHAT THEY LOVE
BE PAID, (handsomely)
BE HUGGED
BE A PART OF THE FAMILY
BE FED, (fabulous lunches-proudly served & prepared)
BE THANKED

Now of course my hubby is paid well for what he does but how many of us are treated like Royalty and are paid?

JoAnne Lenart-Weary is my Mentor & Teacher. She taught us that if we did our "job" right we would become more then just another "Service" provider. We become a part of their family.

The SDP's first conference in Erie had Stan Hustad as a speaker. Stan told us that if we as Decorators/Business owners could:

SAVE people money
SAVE people time
MAKE them HAPPY

The people would commit an un-natural act of handing us money & hugging us at the same time!

Well Stan was right. WOW how Blessed & joyful is that??

My commitment to be a member of The SDP since April of 2006 has not only provided me with the education that I needed but they also provided me the opportunity to learn just how AMAZING of a business I could actually become.

Today I feel amazingly BLESSED.

I hope that you too will be "SHOWERED" with greatness.

My best,

DesAnn Collins
