“I always wanted to ‘grow up’ to be an interior decorator. Instead, I became a mom and worked odd jobs to be able to stay home with my 2 children while my husband worked during the day.”

Like many others, I have enjoyed the staging programs on HGTV and have thought about doing this but didn’t know what to do or how to do it.”
“Recently, I was laid off from a school district job and decided to look up staging on the internet as I heard it was one of the up-and-coming home businesses. I learned that you didn’t need to get certification or licensing; however, I needed help with the business end of my career choice.”
“I found many places online that stated they could provide the information that I was looking for. Ultimately, I went with the Staging Diva Program. I found it to be straightforward, and it had all the information that I was looking for without being too complicated.”
“I look forward to finishing the program and beginning my own business working for myself and nobody else. Thank you!”
