You may have seen some of our success stories in blogs lately.  You also know I'm big into e-newsletter marketing.  This is a copy of a supplimental email that went out to agents today.  We've already received several calls and appointments to view properties for staging services. 

When you have success, don't forget to share it with your clients.  Believe me, they want to know! 

(with the new blog scheme it doesn't seem to be showing off here as pretty as usual.  If you would like me to email you a copy, please let me know and I'll forward one to you.)

Hi Melissa,

I agree staging can make the difference on a sale or not.  Good luck in your staging business and have a great week.  Michael A. Caruso
