Pssssssssst, it's a secret..

But because you're our special friend, we'll let you in on the secret...

click the Pinterest button above!

 

When it comes to Social Media, Tech stuff, Googgle +1, and blogging information, Houston Home Staging has never been 'the source' for up-to-date information!   As an example, I just spent twenty minutes writing this particular blog.  I posted it, and then got so excited I wanted to post another blog on the topic.   In my haste, I deleted the first blog, and am now assuming that I've regained enough composure (i.e. I've stopped screaming at the computer) to enlighten everyone on this wonderful thing called Pinterest!

Our friend Melissa Marro is always a great, great resource for cutting edge stuff that will aid us in our SEO stuff, and it was her recent blogs on Google +1 that set many things in motion!  Mucho thanks Melissa!

Anyway, www.har.com is the online source for Houston Real Estate.  Imagine my surprise when I glanced at one of my newest staging projects to find the Pinterest button at the top of the picture!  Huh?  What?  Do you mean...?

Yup, I can now post and promote ALL of my listings and stagings by using the photographs posted on HAR.com.   Our clients always maximize their staging investment by utilizing professional photographers, but sometimes we don't have access to those photos for use in our Houston Home Staging Marketing program!  

We've never posted before and after photos of our clients lived-in staging projects.   We wouldn't want people to see our own home in before (i.e. slovenly, but well decorated) state, and we kind of figured our clients didn't want to be embarassed either.   Now, we boast about the collaborative efforts of Client, Realtor, Stager, and Photographer by 'pinning' the listing's photographs on Pinterest!

WOW, WOW, WOW........ WHAT A GAME CHANGER!

Please feel free to enjoy our 'boards' on Pinterest.   If you're in the mood, please, please, please accept our invitation to repin, reblog, and rejoice with us over this incredible new opportunity!

Oh, and another great thing:  The photos are directly linked to the listing information on HAR.com, so, if you want to see the entire listing......... you can!

 

Happy Staging Y'all....... go out there and make this the happiest day ever!

Looks like HAR is with it - will need to look to see if SoCalMLS offers the same. Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave!

I'm not a native to Houston, so it's not just regional pride:  www.har.com is truly the cutting edge in real estate marketing!   They've totally changed the game for Realtors, Stagers, Home Buyers, and Home Sellers!

Thanks for stopping by!

Nice post Tom...HAR is way ahead of other nationwide MLS systems when it comes to marketing for agents. Since I moved away from Katy I do notice the difference in a big way!

Well hello there Jeffrey!

Really, so nice to hear from you!   Things on Shillington are quite wonderful, and we're so happy with our home (thanks for being the listing agent <G>)!  Hope you're enjoying Florida!

Indeed, HAR just keeps getting better and better!   They've really set a high bar for online presentation, and I think it has certainly had a positive impact on prices, and shortened market time!   It's also developed a huge demand for professional staging services (those online presentations need to be just right).
