 Home staging training course descriptions and schedule

There is even an Online Discussion Group where you become part of the community of other Staging Diva® graduates. You can also get one-on-one advice by phone for when you get stuck on a project or don't know what to do next with your business. Hundreds of home staging projects are available to Staging Diva Graduates through the Home Stager Referral Program.

The foundation of the Staging Diva Training Program is our series of 5 courses. Taught in a TeleClass format (which is just like a conference call) you learn from the comfort of your own home while speaking directly with Debra Gould and up to 14 other students from across the US and Canada.
Or, you can order recordings of the live courses and get started right away!
These are not "decorating" courses, they take you from start-up through growing a profitable home staging / house fluffing business. The emphasis is on the business, marketing and pricing side of things, because without this knowledge you can't succeed— regardless of how good you are at arranging home furnishings!

"I've developed The Staging Diva Home Staging Business Training Program to give you the tools to REALLY go for it in your own Home Staging, or House Fluffing, business! It's taken me 25 years to develop the marketing and business skills I share with my Staging Diva students.... Plus they know I grew a Home Staging business myself from scratch. This is not theory, it's practical hands-on stuff you can use today and in the years ahead as your business evolves! This program is not padded with all kinds of stuff you'll never use, I stick to the essentials and communicate it in an easy-to-use and easy-to-understand format."
Debra Gould, The Staging Diva* President of Six Elements Inc.
Debra Gould's staging expertise is featured in countless newspapers and magazines.
Debra has been a recognized expert on marketing for over a decade and wrote a chapter in the book "Marketing Masters: The Best Ideas, Tips & Strategies from Canada's Savviest Marketers," published in 1998.

| Staging Diva Training Program Certificate |
Graduates of The Staging Diva Training Program receive a personalized certificate like this, to use in their portfolio or on their own web sites.
Laser prrinted in color on high quality stock, letter size, and suitable for framing.
You'll receive your Graduation Certificate by mail along with a four-color flyer/brochure that you can copy and use for your own marketing materials!
|
Upon completion of our 5 courses you can call yourself a "Graduate of the Staging Diva Training Program." This is not an official credential as there is no such thing as "accreditation" or "certification" in the home staging business (despite what some companies claim).
Accreditation or Certification implies an independent authority monitors and approves credentials and standards in the industry. No such authority exists, and it lacks integrity to suggest otherwise.
It is "buyer beware" in the field of home staging training, so research your choices carefully. Make sure you're being trained by someone who has personally grown their own successful home staging business and doesn't just teach about it, or offer free staging to support their real estate business!
And, check out their business credentials. Debra Gould has an MBA from one of the top business schools in North America, and has been a recognized authority and published writer on business and marketing since the 1980s. Does any other program:
• provide so much free information even when you're not a student?
• offer you a free preview?
• let you meet your trainer by email and phone before paying?
• give you a money back guarantee?

"It was great doing the Staging Diva TeleClasses from home by phone!
You provided so many ideas and practical strategies for growing our Home Staging business!
|
| I travelled first for another company's hands-on courses. It was more expensive and not nearly as useful or organized!

How would your life change if you could do what you love every day and make money doing it?
There's noting like the feeling of elation and freedom that comes from enjoying what you do and knowing that you're earning a living and helping others at the same time.
Staging Diva students range in age from their 20s to their 60s. Some have been stay-at-home Moms for years, others are leaving dead-end jobs or high-flying careers. Many are newly divorced or recovering from cancer and deciding it's time to follow their dreams. About 2% of our students are men.
What they all share in common is a love of decorating, interest in real estate and a keen desire to shape their own future doing what they love.

| "I had only listened to the first three Staging Diva courses while commuting to my day job as a college professor, when I had my first home staging client meeting. I felt so well prepared and had them eating out of the palm of my hand using your tips. The job went incredibly well and I could not tear the smile off my face after I left. |
| I had to strongly resist the urge to skip back to my car in case the clients might be watching from their doorway.
Nothing I have ever done has given me such an elated feeling. Debra, thanks for your fabulous Staging Diva courses and for your mentoring! You have also inspired me to broaden my business horizons. You're amazing!"
