Home Staging Portfolio Secrets:Learn How to Create a Dynamic Professional
Staging or Redesign Portfolio and Use It to Dramatically Increase Your
Client Base for Huge Profits and Massive Referrals
What could you possibly do --- right now --- in
your business, to stimulate a six to
seven figure profit increase this year?
Do YOU know where to kick? I do.
Let me explain
and extend a special invitation to you to profit.
There's an old joke. The plumber gets called in to
fix a broken washing machine. He comes in. He
listens to the noise.
Then he gives a swift "kick" to a strategic spot in
the back --- and, guess what? The washing machine
starts working like new.
Time elapsed? Three
minutes.
Then he submits his bill for $200. The outraged
washing machine owner asks for a detailed
itemization of what she's being asked to pay for.
Twenty dollars for my time, said the repair man.
And one hundred and eighty dollars for knowing
where to kick!
For generations, successful business owners have
long known that it makes good financial sense to
pay brilliant, creative, money-making geniuses
almost whatever fee they asked.
I've seen lots of people come and go in this business over the years
and I've marveled from time to time that some are extremely successful
and others extreme failures. While there are many answers for this,
which is a problem common to all industries, it began to dawn on me that
there was a critical component in my own process that had not been dealt
with in sufficient substance and just down right specifics.
I'm talking about how one goes about creating an actual exclusive
portfolio of their work to use to gain new clients.
You see, home staging and interior redesign are visual, creative
businesses. And as such, it just doesn't make very good sense to try to
build a business without the proper visual aids.
Any business that deals in interior design to any extent needs to be able
to demonstrate visually the benefits and features it offers for a prospect or client. Words are great and
words are needed.
But there's got to be a great visual presentation to go with the words to
really be successful.
I recognized this a long time ago but . . .
I didn't do anything about teaching students how to create what they
needed for themselves. Instead I went and created great tools for them to
purchase and use so they didn't have to reinvent the wheel and could jump
start their business right out of the gate.
Well, that proved wildly successful - but only to a degree. It was
especially beneficial for start-ups, but didn't help those that really got
their businesses launched and who began to have their own story to tell with
their own set of wonderful photographs.
And that's where the system fell apart.
So it finally dawned on me . . .
that it was time to teach students how to create their own unique staging
and redesign portfolio which would not only speak well of their own talents
on the local level but would dramatically increase their opportunities to
garner new business.
You see, it's not just a matter of having a portfolio. Well, you've got
to have one - no question about that.
But the crux of the issue is: What do you do with it once you've made
one?
Here is where students really struggled.
So it finally hit me that I had not really taught yet a system of using
the portfolio to one's advantage and to do it in such a way that anyone
could follow and feel totally comfortable and confident.
As you know, confidence is key!
It doesn't do anyone any good to have a great, powerful portfolio and
then not have the courage and professionalism to use it in the right way.
So answering those problems and formulating a guide that would teach
anyone the step by step process to success was the next step I knew I needed
to take.
The result is: Staging Portfolio Secrets!

And so I tested it out for awhile. Here are some early comments:
PREVIEW TESTIMONIAL - "This book was everything I
hoped it would be and more. Thank you so much for giving me such a great plan to
follow and for laying it all out. I learned so much and have already started
using the techniques. It works! Thank you. Audrey Moss"
PREVIEW TESTIMONIAL - "Great job, Barbara. This is one
of your best books. It is so practical and really makes sense. I feel kind of
dumb that I didn't figure it out for myself. As usually, you have out done
yourself once again. Many thanks for making this available. Cindy Montrelli"
You know, if you're going to be successful, you've got to have the right
tools and visual aids to assist you. If not, you're cutting your nose off to
spite your face, so to speak.
Good - I mean - great visuals just don't happen. They take time to
create. They take effort. They take planning. And they take execution.
But even more than that, there has to be a concrete plan of action when
done that will implement the proper showing of the portfolio to the right
people. You can show it to anyone you want, any time you get ready to, but
I'm not talking about that.
I'm talking about getting in front of the right types of people in the
right setting and showing your portfolio is a very impacting, professional
manner that will get results. It is results we're after, you know.
Sales for my newest book have been phenomenal and I'm very pleased with the reception
so far. It takes a lot of time, energy and focus to write a book, and I always wince when I start because it feels so overwhelming. But once I get into the subject matter, I get excited about what I'm sharing and my hopes
rise up and keep me going. Just knowing that it could improve your business, even in the smallest increments, is enough to keep me at my computer, neck pain and all.
I share this with you because I want you to know that successful people do what other people are
not willing to do. What kind of person are you? Are you willing to go the
extra mile?
The only one who can fire you is you. In every other situation, your source of income is controlled by someone else. And no one is exempt from the chopping block.
But to be successful in business, you've got to have tenacity and the ability to adapt to the ever changing business climate where you live and work. This book is dedicated to help you really reach out to the types of
people who can help you build your business in a non-threatening manner. It's more than a treatise on how to actually make a personal business portfolio. No, no. What good is a top notch portfolio if you don't know what
to do with it?
I intend to teach you a very solid, tried and true system for using your portfolio once you've made it. Yes, I'll teach you how to make one up, the do's and don'ts and stuff like that. But be prepared to learn a method
of using your portfolio - that's where the dollars are hidden.
But that's not to say that this training is right for you . . .
What you will learn in this book will do you absolutely no good
whatsoever if you are someone who lacks follow through skills. If you
just read the material and do nothing, nothing is what you will get back.
Don't waste your time getting it.
The strategies I'm teaching demand action - specific actions - and if
you're kind of lazy and a huge procrastinator - well, maybe it isn't right
for you.
On the other hand, if you're really are serious about building your
business and you want the absolute best, nearly fool-proof methods of doing
just that, then you've got to get this book and learn how to do it the right
way.
I can't say it any more plainly than that.
I'm confident you'll be delighted with your copy and will use my system over
and over again to help promote your business - if you believe in the system
and devote yourself to it.
It does work. It will involve your time and effort at first, but there's
no reason why it will not pay off for you as it has done for others. But
ultimately it will be up to you to read the book, do the assignments, create
your portfolio, and then methodically take the steps I've outlined for you.

"I just received your new book. I am only half way
through it but it has already made a difference. I
now see my strengths and weakness’ better and can
see why I do not follow through on certain things. I
like the creative just not the paper work that goes
with it! - Jody Johansson, Abundant Color" |

Continental USA Only (also great for interior redesigners)
Canada/Alaska/Hawaii (All Other Countries will need to pay an additional postage charge billed separately)
P.S. Remember - this book is totally CHEAP if you get just one new client as
a result. To get on-going clients as a result of this training makes
this investment a total STEAL. Learn what I'm teaching you here and it
will last you for a lifetime.
