Staging Diva encourages aspiring stagers to get started sooner rather than later


If you're sitting there thinking you would enjoy being a home stager, but you're not sure enough to invest in training and other start up costs, I want to ask you something:

How will you ever know whether or not it's right for you until you try it?

Many Staging Diva Graduates have taken their home staging training later in life and most of them say they wish they’d done it years ago rather than wasting time in jobs they hated while stifling their creative spirit.

If you're struggling with the decision of whether or not to take the plunge and start a home staging business, this post on the Home Staging Business Report is a must-read for you.

Staging Diva doesn't move furniture!

Like any type of “reality TV”, most of the decorating shows on HGTV that you love, including those focusing on home staging, are pretty unrealistic. They’re really more about “entertainment” then they are about “reality.”

While a home staging program might show a stager going through and cleaning the house, painting the walls, buying new accessories and moving furniture around, that rarely happens in the real world.

I posted an article recently about how home staging is not physical work despite what you might think from watching HGTV. You can read it here on the Home Staging Business Report.
