    One of the big takeaways from this year’s conference is the importance of intentional business design. This strategic approach gives you the flexibility to select the tools and strategies that align perfectly with your goals and visions of your home staging business. Even among the six active stagers and speakers this year, we can already see a wide range of home staging business models and philosophies. We think it clearly shows that it is possible to design and build the home staging business you want, as long as you have a clear vision of what you want and develop staging services and strategies that seamlessly fit your staging business.

    From consultations and turnkey home design to short-term rental design and the emerging trend of midterm rental design, we also took a look at staging services that you can explore and consider adding to your home staging business.

    We also touch on the power of affiliate programs and the benefits of charging your worth for your expertise. Whether you prefer slow growth or scaling big, managing your cash flow and aligning your business goals with your desired lifestyle are key factors to consider.
