There's no room for me on the bus! 2008 Tri-State Staging Expo is coming up!

The First Annual Tri-State Staging Expo is coming to New Jersey November 5 2008.
Visit www.StagersLIST.com to register today!

As you can see, there is no room for Marey or myself on the bus. We will have to stow away in the baggage compartment or ride on the luggage rack.

The Staging Expo has been a huge success and a lot of fun and each one just gets better. This time around, they added a Marketing Panel consisting of the following 6 Figure Stagers. This will be a no-holds-barred, take-no-prisoners, all-questions-answered Marketing Panel.

Juliet Johnson of Juliet Johnson Staging in Short Hills, New Jersey will be the panel moderator
Kym Hough of Staged to Sell in Danville, California
Melissa Marro of First Impressions Home Staging & Interior ReDesign in Charleston, South Carolina
Kate Hart of Hart & Associates Staging & Design in Radnor, Pennsylvania
Phyllis Pafumi of Restyled to Sell in Old Bridge, New Jersey
Nairn Friemann of Ingenuity & Pizzazz in New York, New York

In addition, key note speaker Christine Rae will discuss "What it Takes to Make Staging a Staple in Any Market". Kym Hough will discuss "How to Run a Profitable Staging Business". Terrylynn Fisher will discuss "How to Sell Staging to Home Sellers from a Realtor's Perspective". Shell from RESA will be there, lots of people we know from Active Rain will be there... There's no question this will be an informative event and a lot of fun. The only question is, when will I get a seat on the darn bus!?!

This expo is brought to you by:

And some of our wonderful vendors, who bring goodies for the goodie bags and cool prizes for the raffle:

Kym - I can, but not with the time I have in the day. Can you get me a few 30 hour days? : )

Gary - I agree! I do get to visit Canada for the first time in April with the Staging Expo, and then have a bit of a vacation, so I'm pretty excited about that.

Oh, if she is giving out 30 hr days, I need some!!!! Really cute graphic! I can't wait to meet everyone in NJ - though I have to admit the weather channel has me a bit frightened!!! I'm not used to the cold (and don't particularly like it). Snow??? what was I thinking?

btw, little typo above - my company is First Impressions Home Staging & Interior ReDesign (one of my websites is www.redesigningcharleston.com)

Thanks for the opportunity to come to your wonderful area - New York...

Chris - That is a long ride some how you have to get in the bus. I think it is wonderful that stagers will be having a convention of their own. Great opportunity to network and pick up a few nuggets.

Chris-I hope you work it out so you can get on the bus. LOL The convention sounds like it is going to be very informative and probably fun once every one gets together.

Chris,

You are too funny. The photo is awesome. We can't wait to meet you so one of these times, you must tell them to make room. This is going to be another great event. We can't wait...even if there is going to be snow! :-(

Charlene - I'll let you know when to expect me! : )

Janice & Wendy - Doesn't Temecula need an expo? And a group wine tour the day after?

Melissa - will correct my typo & I'm with you on the snow thing... we don't get that here! I don't even have a proper winter jacket.

Terrylynn - May have to buy a coat!

Jennifer - people really seem to be enjoying the networking & info. It should be another great event.

Laura - I am working on getting on the bus! I think it will be a lot of fun.

Gail - I can't wait to meet my online friends either, definitely in the works!

Chris, we can always pull a teen wolf stunt. Ride on top of the bus as we are, do stunts gain attention maybe they will follow the bus, might get on the news, have articles wrote about how crazy those two women on top of the bus were. Now there is a creative marketing technique and a fun one too! If anyone could pull it off, it would be us! Got Wine?

Nov 03, 2008 03:31 PM

Bus is loaded, 101 people even though it's election time. WE ARE SO HAPPY...see you all there. t

Nov 03, 2008 05:31 PM

Marey - It may just come to that!

Mom - That's great! Woohoo! Have a great Expo!
