Leverage the Psychology of Color and Art when staging a home
Learn our proprietary Action Scoring System
Take advantage of tools that no other staging class provides. Gain instant confidence when dealing with realtors and homeowners.

Come One, Come All
Our classes are designed to fit a variety of learning styles – part textbook, part discussion, part real-life, hands-on experience (did we leave anyone out?).

Taking It To The Streets

You’ll get double your money’s worth as you apply what you learn in real homes – each offering a different staging challenge in real homes for real people. Some will be fabulous and some will be much less than fabulous...that’s the “real” in “real world.”

Class Agenda

Day one-Staging Professional
Learn how to implement the ODD proprietary scoring system, ACTION©, a numerical evaluation to establish the preparedness of a house for sale. This unique scoring system will have you talking confidently about the staging process with both sellers and Realtors as it gives you an edge that is not just based on your subjective opinion. Learn the "Secrets that SELL"

Day two, Field trip -Each aspect of the class will provide you the pleasure of learning in real homes to hone your skills and showcase your talents. This will also launch your portfolio to share with your future clients. You may also be part of a shopping experience if a client provides a budget. Not only is shopping fun, but you will learn how to make it lucrative. Then it is time for the “Bus Driver, Move that Bus” moment when the homeowner returns to see the result of your hard work. Be prepared for jumping up and down and sometimes, even tears of joy.

Day three, Business of Business-Wrap up your learning with the ODD Business in a Box, which will provide you with a guide to launching and marketing your business. Continue your learning with the BONUS follow-up webinars, which will review what you learned and focus on advanced business and marketing skills. Be prepared for an exciting, exhausting, and empowering experience.
