Starting Your Home Staging Business

In getting my company off the ground, I spent about $2,500 although you may do it for less.

Here are the initial steps I took.

• I acquired and studied every one of the resources found below. Yes, it did cost me some money. However, I probably saved a bundle of dollars and a heck of a lot of time by not reinventing the wheel and avoiding costly mistakes.

• My neighbor designed an upscale business card and a sharp 4-color brochure listing the benefits of using my business in staging a home for quick sale. Yes, I probable spent more on this step than I should but making a solid first impression, I felt, was more than worth it.

• I visited every realtor office in my area and hosted an in-office sandwich and salad lunch at which I talked about how my company would benefit them in suggesting to their sellers the potential of using my skills in selling their home. This was an excellent source of referrals.

• For the next 3-months, I concentrated on speaking before any and every women’s group I could fine. Every group needs program speakers and, well, here I am. I talked about how home staging could benefit a homeowner who wanted to sell their home.

• Today, I would have started a company website in order to spread the word of my undertaking faster and further. When I had my staging a home to sell business, hardly any one had heard of the Internet. Now, who uses phone books anymore?

The above networking and speaking engagements produced a steady inquiries for me. Each month, I continued to speak to small groups. I even held a class at the local public library.
