You can build a successful Home Staging or Real Estate Enhancement business when Staging Diva shows you how

If you're serious about starting and growing your own home staging business (also called house fluffing, real estate enhancement or real estate styling), it's important to choose the right home staging course so that you'll learn how to make money as a home stager.

Staging Diva® is one of the most recognized and respected names in the field of home staging training. As a student in this program, you'll learn what you need to know directly from internationally recognized home staging expert, Debra Gould.

"I saw the first draft of my business cards today and I haven't felt this proud since I graduated from nursing school! This is totally different though, because it's all my own! Every day I hit the floor with my feet running and I'm disappointed when the day is over because I still have so much that I want to do! Debra, I honestly don't know of anyone who has ever inspired and empowered me as much as you have. Thank you for EVERYTHING!" Traci Sampsell (PA)

Debra Gould created the Staging Diva Home Staging Business Training Program based on what she has learned growing her own successful home staging business, Six Elements Inc., from the ground up.

Today there are over 4000 students all over the United States, Canada, Europe, UK, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. You are welcome to contact them to find out what they think about the training they received.

As a Staging Diva student, you'll get a realistic view of what it takes to succeed as a home stager because your teacher and mentor Debra Gould has been personally staging houses since 2002. She has helped hundreds of her own staging clients while learning the ins and outs of how to make money in a staging business.

In the courses, you'll hear Debra share stories and lessons from actual client projects, not abstract theories that may or may not work in the real world.

Home Staging expert Debra Gould has been featured in CNN Money, The Wall Street Journal, HGTV, Woman's Day Magazine, CBS Radio, CBC Radio, GlobalTV, CityTV, Pulse24, CBC News, The National Post, Globe & Mail, Entrepreneur Magazine, This Old House, MoneySense, House and Home, Style at Home, Home & Decor, and more. She is also a regular contributor to American Chronicle on the subject of home staging.

Because the Staging Diva Home Staging Business Training Program is based on real world experience, it will put you years ahead in your own staging business by saving you tons of trial and error trying to figure out everything on your own.

Imagine taking a huge short cut in your own success for the cost of what you can make back from only one or two client projects!

"The Staging Diva offers an inspiring training course. Not only is Debra professional and informative, but she’s also fun to listen to and learn from! She is passionate about staging and helping others succeed." Karen Murdock (WI)

Home staging expert Debra Gould has an MBA in Marketing, a BA in Communications and has been an entrepreneur since 1989. She is the only person with these solid credentials teaching home staging in the world today.

Debra knows what she's talking about and delivers that knowledge to you in a candid, down-to-earth style that cuts right to the chase. There's no fluff here!

Within 2 years of starting her own home staging business, Staging Diva Debra Gould was earning up to $10,000 a month staging homes. She teaches her students exactly how she did that, so they can copy her formula for success.

In fact, you'll be surprised at what Debra earns in two hours— more than some people earn in a week! And her staging clients are thrilled because they know they'll make a huge profit on her services!

Save time and money by studying from home!

There's no need to travel to take the Staging Diva Home Staging Business Training Program because you study from home. That saves you a ton of money, time and the aggravation of travel.

And you can get started within minutes if you like (more on that further down this page)!

"I purchased all five Staging Diva course recordings and I am SO pleased that I did! I had already taken another (more expensive) program, but important pieces were missing. Thank you for filling in those missing pieces with your incredibly insightful and informative courses. After finishing the Staging Diva Program, I feel thoroughly prepared to start on this new adventure of opening my own home staging business." Nancy Maurer (NJ)

Give us 10 hours and we'll give you the keys to a new home-based business.

The program is made up of 5 courses. Each one is two hours of audio recordings plus accompanying study notes.

There are homework assignments, but you don't have to submit them to us for grading. We don't believe in giving you make-work projects or asking you to jump through unnecessary hoops to complete your training.

Homework is provided to encourage you to take the steps needed to start your business. By following the Staging Diva system, you will gain significant advantages. You do not have to submit any of your work to us for marking.

The goal of this program is to make sure you have what you need to really make money as a home stager while doing the creative staging work that you love and treating your clients with honesty and integrity.

You don't need an interior design background

Most students don't have a design background, but they do share a talent for how to arrange furniture in a room.

Debra takes you through what she looks for during a home staging consultation and the process she uses to stage a home, but she won't waste class time explaining how a color wheel works.

You don't need to know the difference between a secondary and tertiary color to know how to pick the right neutral for a living room.

Class time will also not be spent showing you room photos and asking you where you'd put the couch.

The biggest challenge to making money as a home stager is understanding the business side, so that's the focus of the Staging Diva Training Program!

Make no mistake, this is a highly profitable business IF you know what you're doing, and Staging Diva Training makes that possible for you.

"The Staging Diva Home Staging Training Program is one of the best programs I've ever taken in my life. It's not just about Staging - it's about being in BUSINESS and making MONEY and keeping yourself SANE at the same time!" Victoria Willits (MD)
Download or Home Study Kit? You'll get professionally edited recordings of Debra's favorite classes from the hundreds she has taught along with detailed course study notes. You can order "downloadable"* course recordings and start the program today, or order the "Home Study Kit" (shown at right) that is shipped to you in the mail. Either way, you'll learn from home, and there's no travel required, which keeps your costs (and wasted time) down!	Staging Diva Home Staging Training Program Home Study Kit is sent to you in the mail. Or you can get immediate access to your course material by ordering the less expensive downloadable program.
*"Downloadable" means you'll get an email with download links for all your recordings and course study notes. You download them onto your computer, which is why there's no waiting for material to come in the mail when you order this way! Downloading is easy to do and we offer customer support if you need it. Course Cost (US $)

The full Staging Diva Home Staging Training Program costs $995 when you order all five courses by download. This is your least expensive way to do the program and represents a savings of $270 compared to ordering everything individually. 90% of students who sign up for one course end up taking all five. If you order a single course now and decide later that you want the other four, you will be paying the single course price for each one. So it's better to save $270 now and get the five-course download package. You still qualify for the money-back guarantee (see below)! Individual Course Recordings and Notes US $249 per course (download only) Save More with 5-course package US $995 for 5-course (download) package, includes extra bonus checklist	"I've never been so driven, passionate and totally motivated as I have been since completing the Staging Diva Program. The fact that this is start-up business and marketing related to home staging makes it so perfect. With all of Debra's examples of her personal wrong directions and successes, I feel I'm so much farther ahead. I'm still amazed at how much information is in this program, and I have the recordings to listen to again and again! Run, don't walk to your computer to enroll now! You will regret that you did not enroll sooner." Dane Caldwell (ON)
Each course includes a full set of notes and approximately 2 hours of course recordings, which are emailed to you right after you order if you choose the download option. You download the recordings onto your computer and you can listen right away! There is no waiting to get materials in the mail. The download option is easy and we give you full instructions. You don't need to be a whiz with computers— most students aren't.
PAYMENT PLAN (download courses) While the five-course package is the cheapest way to study the program, you may prefer to spread your payments out over time as your budget allows. Ordering courses one by one, or a couple at a time, is the way to do that. You need all five courses to qualify as a Graduate of the Staging Diva Training Program. You can take as long as you like to complete the five courses. Many students land their first staging project by doing the homework assigned at the end of Course 1 to prepare for Course 2. That single project can pay for ALL your training!	"I'm so happy to be starting a new business at the age of 76. I got two staging projects within weeks of completing the Staging Diva Training. Thank you Debra for everything you have done to make my dreams come true!" Jean Smith (FL)
Home Study Kit Option The Home Study kit costs a bit more but everything is sent to you in the mail rather than downloading it. Please allow up to 2 weeks to receive your Training Program within the United States. For Canadian orders, it can take up to 3 weeks, and for overseas students the wait may be 4 weeks, due to the longer shipping time and the need to cross borders.
Home Study Kit Recordings and Notes US $1295 (plus shipping/handling), includes these extra bonuses: Checklist, Training Program Workbook, Bonus Q & A CD (total value of bonuses US $210) Or 3 easy pay option Instead of paying all at once for the Home Study Kit, you can use our 3 Easy Pay Option! Spread your payments across three months of credit card statements. The first payment of US $495 (plus shipping/handling) will be billed immediately. After 30 days you'll be billed $495; and the final $495 is billed another 30 days from then. You'll still get all the same product bonuses, valued at US $210, but you'll be paying a total of US $1485 with this option instead of a single payment of US $1295. Your product will still be shipped within 7 days of when you order. Please allow up to 2 weeks to receive your Training Program within the United States. For Canadian orders, it can take up to 3 weeks, and for overseas students the wait may be 4 weeks, due to the longer shipping time and the need to cross borders.

"I've enjoyed and benefited so much from the Staging Diva course recordings. I already took a 'hands-on' course this past spring. It cost significantly more money and I learned much less. I am so glad to have the Staging Diva recordings, as I've listened to each class several times, always hearing something new. Thanks Debra for offering such a great home staging training program!" Amy Eastlack (NE)

I simply love the fact that the course curriculum is a 'blueprint' with all the ins and outs of developing a Home Staging business— what a gift! The Staging Diva Home Staging Training Program proved to be 'over-the-top' on a scale of 1 to 10." Ameenah Lutfee (CA)

Debra Gould is very knowledgeable about this industry and is willing to teach it. When you are ready to get to work building your staging business call The Staging Diva." Fabia MacNair (ON)
