Memorial Staged Homes Named Best and Brightest (Perspectives on Real Estate and More from a Home Staging Pro)

        Kathy Strader Memorial Staged HomesLast week I had the pleasure of being an exhibitor at the Houston Build Expo.  I shared a booth with two other Home Staging companies and although we worked hard, we had a great time.  We found that by working together, the process is much more enjoyable and Expo attendees were impressed by our team work.   We were also given the opportunity to present two educational sessions at the Expo titled “Using Home Staging to Turn Lookers into Buyers”.

          Prior to the show, I’d received an e-mail from Build Expo asking if I would be at the awards presentation on the first day of the show.  It said, “This ceremony will recognize each company for their vital role in the Houston area's economic development, as well as, their contribution to the region's growth and progression.”  Well of course I said I would be there.  I was thinking, “What a great opportunity to network! “Tish Raiford

         As it turns out, Memorial Staged Homes, along with my two co-exhibitors, were named Houston Construction’s Best and Brightest.  So exciting!  The certificate says, “For innovative solutions in the building and construction industry, and for exceptional intellectual and inspired leadership.”  We were so honored to be among a larger group, from all segments of the Houston construction industry being recognized for our hard work.

       Kathy Strader Build Expo  The ceremony was followed by a reception, and then it was back to work.  So many attendees and fellow exhibitors to meet, but everyone was so pleasant.  Not only did I have the opportunity to share a great deal of information on Home Staging, I learned so much and got a much better understanding of how important the Construction industry is to the economic development of my city.  I do believe the Build Expo has made me a better Home Stager.

Kathy, I think it was a smart move to have a booth in the Bilder's Expo. I hope you will get a lot of business from construction companies. I participated in Home and Garden Show two years ago and didn't have much out of it.

Kathy ~ Congratulations on this wonderful recognition!  The networking alone could really be a boost to your staging business, but the combined exposure due to this award is a great marketing tool for you.  Best of luck capitalizing on it!
