Building a Successful Home Staging Business: Proven Strategies from the Creator of Home Staging Hardcover – June 4, 2007

Is a very good book, very easy to follow and give you the best idea how the staging business is like! Had many pen notes and lines but it is ok, the most important is the content.

I would recommend this book to anyone interested in home staging as it has a wealth of information. Every thing one needs to know about home staging is written in this book, including forms, paperwork needed, checklists, etc. I would highly suggest it.

Love this book it was very informative

Great read!

This is a good book if your interested in being a Home Stager. It has contract you can view and information on where to get furnishings you need to get started. I would recommend it.

Loved this book

This book is not much more than Barb telling us repeatedly that she "invented" home staging and mostly writing to promote her courses. Much of her information was out-dated. Ex. Set up a voicemail or get a phone with an answering machine. Really?

I want to start the review by disclosing that I am an Accredited Staging Professional trained by Barb Schwarz's company Staged Homes.I can sum up the book by dividing it into three parts.The book is about 1/3 self promotion about Barb Schwarz and taking her classes. Even though I have taken her class, I know other excellent home stagers that have taken other classes or some that have not taken training classes at all.About 1/3 of the book is about starting a business. This is a critical part of success. I think other more indepth books on starting a business and marketing it would give you more detailed information.The other 1/3 is helpful home staging industry specific tips. Most of them are common sense. If you do not know you need to form relationships with real estate agents - this is not a business for you. I think the sample documents in the back of the book are helpful for a new home stager.So, Yes parts of this book are helpful but it is not the only resource you need.
