The ASP® Home Stager Course Curriculum OVERVIEW: WHAT EACH DAY COVERS


Day 1: 9:00 am – 5:30 pmLearn How to Educate Your Clients and the Real Estate Agents You Work with and Meet

Day 1 is in a classroom environment where you will learn the details of the ASP® proven program of successful working practices.

Communication is crucial to your Staging success! Staging Talent is one thing, but learning how to get your sellers and Real Estate agents to do what you share with them is another. You can be the greatest Stager in the world, but if you are not able to educate your clients on the benefits of Staging then they probably will not Stage® their home or listing with you. Therefore, your ASP® Course is very detailed on day one of how to communicate with your clients and RE Agents so that they say ‘yes’. We teach you how to educate your sellers to do whatever is required to Stage® their home. Staging many times is the easy part. Convincing the seller can be the hard part. On day one you will learn what to say and how to say it so that your sellers move ahead with you. You will learn the ASP® Steps of Staging and home staging sayings.

Your ASP® course shows you that ASP® Staging is not about just “buying things” but rather and also how to work with what the homeowner has in ‘lived in homes’ and how to use your creativity to do the best possible work to serve your clients in the best possible way. There are many before and after pictures/slides to see as examples of what can be done working with just what the seller has in the lived in home.
