Épisode 92

lundi 10 juin 2024 • Durée 26:59

If someone asks if I do staging, I would reply, "No! Only with your existing furniture. I don't have an inventory of furniture."

One of the setbacks keeping me from offering a staging service is the investment and inventory, specifically managing and storing it.

In today's episode, Marianne, a home stager's coach, enlightened me that staging doesn’t require a large inventory or warehouse. She reveals how adding staging to my design services can open up new opportunities. Huh?! All along, I was leaving money on the table!

This episode promises to show you how staging can enhance your design skills, expand your client base, and ultimately increase your revenue. Whether you are a seasoned interior designer considering adding staging to your repertoire or a home stager debating the need for warehouse space, this episode is an eye-opener.

Tune in to learn more about home staging and how it can enhance your design career.

Featured Guest:

⁠Marianne Cherico⁠ is a trained personal and professional development coach and the owner of a successful home staging business since 2005.

With a background in real estate, Marianne has coached numerous Home Stagers across the country on mindset skills and savvy business strategies.

Her speaking engagements include several conferences and workshops around New England with the Design for Today collaborative, as well as numerous on and offline venues. Marianne's podcast, ⁠Home Stagers and Designers on Fire⁠ is a great way to learn business and mindset strategies for those wanting to grow your home staging business.
