Turn Your Decorating Talent into a Home Staging Career

If you’re dreaming of taking your decorating talent and turning it into a profitable business, I know you will see yourself in the following statements from Staging Diva Graduates.

They are all regular people like yourself with one thing in common – natural decorating talent and the drive to turn that passion into something more.

The only difference between these women and yourself is that they found the courage to enroll in a home staging training program that would help them realize their dreams.

Will this be the year you turn your decorating talent into a new career?

“My passion is decorating and I have always wanted a career in the field. Unsure how to get started, though, I continually put my dream on hold. I researched several training companies very thoroughly. There was no question that The Staging Diva Business Training Program was the absolute best. The program not only provides the tools to grow and market your business, it also provides a network of support and inspiration. Thanks for inspiring me to do what I have dreamed of for so many years!” Debbie McGennis-Howe, Set the Stage Interiors

“I have always wanted to start my own business, had taken many courses, and was told by friends and family I should be in business for myself. Taking the Staging Diva course gave me the boost I needed to get going. Now I am up and running and working with my first clients and having so much fun.” Donna McEvoy, Alter Interiors

“I have wanted my own home decor business for a long time, but never knew how to start. I had so many questions and no answers, so I thought I should give up the dream and settle for a regular ‘job’. Now, I not only have a clear path of where I’m headed, but I’ve made some long term goals for expanding my staging business. Thanks Debra, you truly are a life saver!” Beth Koehnemann, The Nurtured Home, LLC

“I have NO background in business or marketing and I found Debra’s program incredibly informative. If it weren’t for the Staging Diva Training Program, I never would have had the courage to challenge myself and step out my safety zone. The course was so inspiring and gave me the confidence to “just do it”! Thanks to Debra’s training, the Staging Diva Directory of Home Stagers and the Staging Diva Network Online Discussion Group, I went from “maybe I can do this” to “I can do this” to “I am doing this”! Lynn Trostheim, Sassy Grass Interior

“Discovering The Staging Diva Home Staging Business Training Program showed me how I could give up my soul-sucking, well paying job, and leap into a career that would feed my soul and provide financial benefits far beyond what I make now! Debra is so inspiring and her enthusiasm is contagious. I learned everything I needed to know to get my business up and running. None of my clients ever guessed I was just starting out. I looked like a seasoned professional from the start thanks to the Staging Diva training. Within weeks of completing the program and joining The Staging Diva Directory, I got two projects worth $3,500!” Linda Schleihauf, The Detailed Home

“I am in a corporate management job that is sucking the soul out of me. When I asked myself for the millionth time how I could stop being miserable and start living, someone said how good I was at arranging and decorating. I had no idea that a training program taken from home would give me anything close to this much information, inspiration, and motivation! This will change my life!” Susan O’Connor, Staged 4 the Sale, Inc.

“Debra gave me the knowledge, power and confidence to quit my job of 8 years and start doing something I have only dreamed of. All my questions were answered and I was able to start my staging business knowing what to expect and what steps to take. Family and friends have a new found respect for me for being an example to my children by stepping outside my comfort zone and going for what I really want! Thank you Debra for showing me how to build this new career for myself!” Heather Ray Ryan, Rayz The Stage.

In case you are wondering, the awesome home staging photo at the top of this story is by Staging Diva Graduate Adam Luttrell, of Tasmania home staging company Shift Property Styling.

Like most of our students and graduates, Adam came to home staging from a totally unrelated career.

And to my knowledge, he never studied interior decorating. I think you’ll agree Adam definitely has the decorating talent for this job!

  Thanks so much Ammy! If you’re looking to get started as a home stager, I hope you’ll check out my FREE Jumpstart Course here.

“The Staging Diva Business Training Program is worth every penny!

While there are other home staging courses out there, I’m so happy I follow the business model Debra teaches in her program. It is specific, concise, and thoroughly explained.

In addition to her courses, Debra offers SO many supplemental materials that are incredibly helpful too. The community of Staging Diva Graduates is another bonus, as we all support each other and share each other’s wins.”
— Cristin Lyons (NC)*Raleigh Staging & Design

“The Staging Diva Program is very well organized and explains in the most straightforward terms how to set up your business, maintain and grow it.

By the time I was on Course 3, I had already completed three home staging jobs which more than paid for all the training!

Debra’s step-by-step process allowed me to start a 2nd career doing something I probably should have been doing all along!”
— Rob Reinhart (CA)*Make It-Home

“Once I decided home staging was for me, I was terrified of starting my own business. Staging Diva Training gave me the confidence to do what I love, and contribute to our income after being out of the work force for 15 years.

Debra gave me the information I needed to get over my fear of failure, charge what I’m worth, and get out there and start my home staging business!”
— Kelli Hughes (TX)*ReAbode Home Staging and Redesign

“I felt like I hit the jackpot when I found the Staging Diva Program. I bought it without hesitation and began my training immediately.

I’m excited and inspired. The courses exceeded my expectations and gave me the knowledge to confidently start my own staging business.

So grateful for what I learned from Debra. She shares her gifts and talents so generously!”
— Mary-Maye Lorriman (UK)*Room by Room Interiors Ltd

“The Staging Diva Program was such an influential part of my home staging business plan. The business tools, processes and procedures Debra Gould outlines in the program set you up for success.

I have taken other courses but none compare to the comprehensive program with Staging Diva.

I truly appreciate all Debra’s help and guidance through the courses and group coaching calls. She is such a great inspiration!”
— Lori Carbone (NJ)*Spaces That Speak Home Staging

“I love Debra Gould’s straight forward approach and candor. As a home stager, she knows first-hand what it’s like in the field. Debra is running her own staging business as a real business and knows what it takes.

Debra is truly an uplifting woman and I continue to aspire to follow her lead. Her amazing passion for home staging is felt all the way over here on the Jersey Shore.”
— Wynette Williams (NJ)*Red Robyn Interiors

“The Staging Diva Program taught me many secrets about home staging consultations— especially how to charge, and have no inventory.

I took another home staging course before Debra’s and the Staging Diva Program really helped build my business. Debra forced me out of my comfort zone, she is such an inspiration! Now I know I can make a difference in many people’s lives.”
— Susan Bierig (NJ)*Re-deZine The Shore Way LLC

“I loved Debra’s no-nonsense style of running a home staging business, it’s very easy and straightforward. She keeps it simple, and it all “clicked” for me.

I now have the confidence to get out there and do what I am passionate about. I knew I had the talent, and now I have the business knowledge to round out my staging business. Thank you Debra!”
— Judy Chizmar (PA)*Judy Chizmar Home Transformations

“The Staging Diva Program is fantastic! I wish I had found it before completing a different home staging course. The program provided me with valuable business information that the other course lacked.

I am very impressed with Debra Gould. It is quite evident that she is honest and ethical in all her dealings with her students and clients, and that’s #1 in my books.

She truly has become my mentor!”
— Monique Milne (MB)*Milne Well Dressed Homes (MB)

“I’m so glad I came across the Staging Diva Home Staging Training Program. It’s a perfect fit for me with Debra sharing her business model and what has worked for her. She takes the guess work out of how to run a successful home staging business.

Debra is supportive, down to earth and has a wealth of experience under her belt. I can now express my creative passion with more confidence following her guidance.”
— Shelley Giffin (QLD AU)*Rooms for Miracles

“The Staging Diva Program is very comprehensive, flows well, is explained simply, and the content is engaging. I loved the combination of information from Debra mixed in with student questions.

I do not need a business background to be successful as a home stager after taking the Staging Diva courses. They gave me the confidence I needed, to know that I can be successful.”
— Haana Nyamekye (MD)*Zuri Sophia Interiors

“I love that I’m pursuing a career that pays me to be creative, rather than spending my time working for someone else.

Plus, I have the freedom to be available to my family when they need me.

The Staging Diva Program filled in all the questions that I still had after completing another ‘hands on’ program. Thank you Debra, I now have the confidence to build my staging business.”
— Tracie Lacroix (BC)*Sold by Design

“This is the first time in my 57 years of life that I am pursuing something solely for myself — despite my often paralyzing fear!

I’m optimistic and excited to see what the new year has in store for me— due in large part to having found the Staging Diva Program and feeling prepared to take this new journey as a home stager. Debra, thank you sincerely!”
— Lisa Tyus-Lee (OH)*Lights Camera Stage LLC

“Debra’s knowledge and expertise on how to start a home staging business have inspired me.

As a seasoned Real Estate Agent who already staged clients homes, I believe this is a great business to be in.

I am moving my dream of staging homes into a separate business because Debra taught me how in the Staging Diva Program. Thank you Debra!”
— Leslie Manson (BC)*Staging Homes by Leslie

“I appreciate Debra’s candid approach. It’s the reason I chose the Staging Diva Program over other home staging courses.

My first project sold the first day on the market for more than the asking price. This confirmed I’m in the right business.

Thank you, Debra!”
— Casey McDougall (TX)*Custom Home Staging

“I loved the Staging Diva Program! I was skeptical about the format at first, but it was great. The notes were concise and easy to follow. Students asked questions I was wondering about myself, and Debra is clear and direct.

I’m confident in my decorating abilities, but wasn’t sure how to run a professional and profitable staging business. Debra walks you through the entire process.”
— Deborah Brischler (CA)*Home Staging Solutions

“The Staging Diva Program will help me avoid possible mistakes and has provided great clarity on many grey areas— which is great!

I love staging homes and since doing the program, I love it even more as I am confident that I can provide a really worthwhile and valuable service! These home staging courses are very practical. I wish I had completed them sooner!”
— Clodagh Doyle (Ireland)*Placelift Property Renovation Specialists

“I have never been so driven, passionate and totally motivated as I have been since completing the Staging Diva Program. I have not lost any steam nor any excitement.

The fact that the program is start-up business and marketing related to home staging makes it so perfect.”
— Dane Caldwell (ON)*2 Hounds Design

“I knew what I wanted to do as a home stager, but I didn’t know how to go about it. Staging Diva gave me the processes and I followed them.”
— Meg Ritchie (AU)*Gold Coast Homestaging

“I already have a knack for the decorating part of home staging, but I lacked the business side of things.

The Staging Diva Program was great to have at my fingertips so I could listen at my own speed and in my own time.

I was concerned about handling all the paperwork I thought had to be involved in the contracts and such, but Staging Diva has made it SO much easier!!”
— Amy Brown (MO)*Simply Staging by Amy
