Raffia as a Teaching Tool - 10/28/07 01:19 AM
Alright, so I was only joking when I commented on Jackson's blog about using raffia in the future. Truly, it had never occurred to me before to stage any of my props with the stuff. It just seemed so unkempt to me - what with stringy ends and all. Recently, and only … (22 comments)
Put Me in Coach - 10/24/07 01:17 PM
It doesn't take much for me to find a "win" in my day ordinarily and I'm grateful, because I know many folks have a difficult time noticing the insignificant small positive outcomes that occur daily when everything else around seems to be telling them the opposite. Today is one of those … (24 comments)
Roll Call Please for Southern California Stagers! - 10/23/07 12:22 PM
Watching the fires rage in Southern California is heart wrenching and terrifying. I'm able to keep track of a few of the Realtors and agents that are in the area by reading Jeff Dowler's Blog; and I'm grateful for the updates he's able to provide concerning these folks.

Reaching the Masses - 10/17/07 12:53 PM
I'm a bit of a geek when it comes to Marketing and Market Research and have wanted to take a look at what the general public actually searches under when they look for a home stager. In order to closely align myself with Joe Public I have to step into his … (12 comments)
A Few Things I Will Not Do - 10/16/07 09:20 PM
I've been getting referrals and receiving phone calls from other business people that are recognizing the "market" that stagers present. Today I received a call that caused me to step back just a minute. As many times as I explain to these Marketeers what I do and how I do it, … (14 comments)

Everyone knows the importance of having a web presence, especially in an industry such as I work. Realtors® and clients like to be able to type their way to an address, coming to call so to speak. I don't know about you, but I kind of like having visitors. I get … (15 comments)
A Hat, A Ring and a Few Questions - 10/10/07 02:01 PM
Alright, I've been sitting with this thought for quite awhile now, wondering how to present it and ask for other thoughts; but today I realized I'm probably never going to be able to perfectly word anything, give it up, throw my hat in the ring and get this off my proverbial … (13 comments)
Demographics and Market Analysis ~ What Place in the Home Staging Business? - 10/09/07 02:44 PM
I have an affinity for outstanding customer service - making sure my clients are pleased and are actually getting what they've paid for. Really it's more than an affinity, it's an obsession. However, having said that, I also try to be very careful in qualifying nominilizations. It is my opinion that the … (13 comments)
A Place of Rest………… - 10/02/07 01:06 PM
For the eyes! It sometimes happens that I enter a room and actually get a feeling of frustration.
