I just returned from Houston where I attended the StagersList Expo. If you haven't attended one of their expos, you need to SIGN UP for the next one! The money and time spent were well worth it. The sessions were interesting, informative, and relative to your staging business. You will definitely walk away with several "ah ha" moments that you can immediately apply to growing your business. I don't want to spoil it for you, so I won't say anything specific, but you should go! In addition, it was a great opportunity to spend time with experts in … (8 comments)

rockwall: What's in a Name?
- 08/18/08 05:23 PM
On a recent road trip to West Texas, I went through several small towns/cities with unusual names and was curious about the origin of their names.

Drought tolerant plants not only look good, they're also especially helpful for homeowners who don't have a "green thumb" and for those vacant homes where the homeowner isn't there to water regularly.
