FAQ

We decided early on that just because other staging courses start above $1000, that didn't mean our course had to be that pricey too. Our mission is to reach people who need our help transforming their lives, and we care WAY more about that mission than making money. So if charging a tiny fraction of what others charge means we change more lives, then we'll keep doing it forevah.

That doesn't mean this course is any less valuable or has less content than others - in fact we've been told by stagers who have taken our course as well as the industry standard ones that ours is even more helpful and packed full of more practical, approachable advice.

In fact, we created it in the first place because the courses we took were SO expensive and left us feeling lost and overwhelmed. Our course is instead designed to be doable, fun, and realistic for stagers just starting out.

Okay, so this is a touchy subject in the staging industry, but being a Home Stager does not require any licensure or certification whatsoever to practice, and anyone telling you otherwise is selling you something. And while there are courses out there that will give you a 'certification' from the industry, they're really just made-up by other stagers who created a course like us.

But when the industry leaders came to us and asked if we wanted our course certified, we politely declined because their goals, values and experience are totally different from ours.

So if you're looking for a piece of paper for legitimacy, this probably isn't the course for you. However, if you're looking to really learn your craft, build a business that loves you back, and start from a place of integrity, then we're a match made in heaven.

In our experience, staging certifications are only taken seriously by other stagers, and will not help you book more clients. Realtors and homeowners are very unfamiliar with the staging industry, so unless you're in a big city center trying to compete with other stagers who are certified, then getting that piece of paper won't get you far.

What DOES matter is becoming confident in your sales strategies, working on your own mental health so that you can shout from the rooftops about the value of staging, and building a business that works for YOUR life.

This course will help you accomplish all those things and more so you feel like you know exactly where to put your time and energy, and so you can embody the confident entrepreneur you know you can become.
