Now, are you ready to start your new career as a Certified Home Stager?


Karen Schaefer, Founder APSD
"Starting an Effective Home Staging Business"

For New Home Stagers, Exisiting Home Stagers, Organizers, Interior Designers and Decorators, and Real Estate Agents, (or those looking to start their own Small Business); 

How often have you thought about having your own business as a home stager?  Have you been ‘the best kept secret in home staging’ for years, updating your own home and those of friends and family…for free?  Well…do you think it is time to get paid for it and show the world what you can really do?

Dear Friend,

The home staging industry is recognized as one of the best industries to get into in the coming years by CNN Money and Career Builders and it is growing worldwide.  The reason is that so many people need help selling their homes yet don’t know how to make it look irresistible to a new home buyer!

That is where you come in.  Not only do people need your help more than ever before but you have the opportunity right now to discover the wonderful industry of home staging as a Certified APSD Home Stager.

“The APSD® Certified Home Stager Training Program.”

Okay, let’s talk down and dirty…there are several good  home staging training businesses out there…and I mean several.  So, how do you choose?  Well, my feeling always is to ‘dip your toe into the water’ to see what works best before you jump in over your head.  Do you really want to invest $2,000, $4,000, or even $5,000 to later find out that maybe that course, trainer or certification company wasn’t what you were looking for?  That they didn’t give you the business or marketing training you needed to succeed?  Perhaps you thought they sounded great but when you tried to get a question answered, they wouldn’t even pick up the phone or return an email.  Who needs that? Not me and not you!

I don’t know about you but money doesn’t grow on trees and I like to make sure something is right before I invest too much. And then, when it is right, I am happy to invest in myself and my company because I know that what I am doing is right for me.

At APSD, you can learn the Home Staging Basics and become an APSD Certified Home Stager for less than $250.  Yep, you read that right, I did not miss a zero.  Now I am going to tell you upfront that these are the basics, things you need to know to get started, to ramp up and then after that, when you are ready to take your business to the next level, you will want to become an Advanced Home Stager…but wouldn’t you rather start with ‘Step 1’ rather than with step 6 and always wonder what you missed with steps 1-5?


APSD® Home Stager Training Materials

There are several home staging training companies out there that will tell you that ‘you can’t learn home staging on a computer, or by just listening or in a day.’  They are correct. You can’t learn their ‘course’ that way because all they ever built was a big huge monster of a ‘course’ that does not allow you to take one logical step and then the next.   You have to try to drink it all in at once and hope that you get enough to begin your business.

We don’t really have ‘courses’ at APSD, we have systems. We have systems that start with A and end with Z. Systems that are creative, logical and walk you through exactly what you need to know, step by step.  Our systems are for the beginner, then the intermediate and then the advanced home stager.  They start off small, with only a few steps and then grow into some of the most intricate and highly-effective  home staging systems offered within the home staging community.   As a matter of fact, after comparing APSD Systems to other ‘courses’ in the industry, APSD provides the  most  in-depth and detailed processes  available. I hope that as you grow you decide to take these other programs with us! At APSD you can go all the way from being a Certified Home Stager through a Master Trainer with at least 10 courses in between…

...but I always think you should start with the basics…step 1.

You know, I already mentioned that at APSD we have multiple ways for you to grow.  I have been blessed to have members tell me just how much APSD has meant to them as they grew within the industry so I just wanted to be able to share that with you as well. 

“Dearest Karen, As I write this, I am crying. Crying because I feel so grateful to you and all your effort you showed me during this training.  All your letters back to me.  All your love and help toward me.  Thank you does not even cover how I feel right now.  I know the real work is now going out and putting this training to the test and sharing with others how I can help them.  I know I will need to go over this a time or two again.  The good news is I have a few friends who are RE agents and love me dearly, so I believe they will help get me started.  I'll let you go now.  Thank you for welcoming me into "The Family".  It feels good to be a part of APSD right now.

“I was taking time this morning to think BIG and to take note of the people that have made a difference in my life.  You were at the top of that list.  You have opened doors for me that I never would have realize were there. You have given me the confidence to even think BIG and to plan for a bigger better life.  So on this day of Thanksgiving I am thankful for you. Gratefully,

"I have been in business as a Professional Home Stager for a little over a year and a half.  I took a Home Staging course and was certified by another home staging company back in 2009.  Boy do I wish I had found APSD first!  I have gotten so much more out of this training it is unbelievable.  The other company taught me nothing about marketing.  I have had to stumble my way through by checking out other stagers, different articles and tips on the internet, trial and error.... I think you get my point.  But the APSD training lays it out for you…With the APSD course, there is no guesswork.  It is spelled out plain and simple.  And last, but certainly not least, I am learning what will make me stand out over my competition (and the houses I stage too). 

Teri Clardy, Denver, CO”
APSD Trainer #407282

“Bottom line is, I LOVE THIS COURSE!!  And I am so excited about starting my Staging Pro training next 'cause you better believe I'm going to continue taking these courses.  I fully intend to be the BEST!!"You are an amazing woman, thank you for sharing this information with all of us! Thank you Karen!!!

Kathy Tickell, Victoria Harbour, Ontario”



Why would I do this instead of just offering the ‘Home Staging Monster Course’ like everyone else?

Well, the truth is when I started out, I was broke. Really, I was ‘less than broke’ with over $118,000 of credit card debt and wondering how the heck I would ever get out of it!  The worst part is no one would help me and no matter how hard I tried to find something to help me ‘get started’ I could never get the answers I needed for what I could afford. 

So, I created the answers…and the systems…and ultimately built my own success.  Now, I can share it with you in the same way so you don’t have to go through what I had to go through.   The reality is there are 7 billion people in the world living in millions of houses…I really think there is enough for all of us, don’t you?
