Frequently asked questions

Question: I've already been Staging for years. How will this course help my business?

Running a business is an ongoing process - and if you did not take a foundational course to get started, you could benefit from learning the professional process, pricing, communication strategies, creating proposals, consultations and understanding how to market to win business.

Question: How much money do I need to start my Home Staging business?

It varies, but the investment in starting an ASP Home Staging business is relatively small compared to other businesses. The cost of basic ASP Staging education is approximately $1895 - and we do have specials. Plan for $3000 for education, marketing materials, website, and business filings.

Do I need any prior experience or training to start my Staging business?

Many professional designers and decorators have earned their ASP Designation, and successful Stagers have come from all backgrounds and walks of life. The 3-day ASP Stager Business Course is a starting point, and teaches what you need to know to be successful, whether brand new or experienced.

I'm shy, but people tell me I'd be a good Stager. Is this for me?

Making cold calls and sales presentations to RE Agents is not for everybody. Many ASP Stagers work with other Stagers behind the scenes on larger projects for an hourly rate or a fixed fee. You may want to look at the ASA Course for Assistants that uses your creativity without sales pressure.

I'm not an Interior Designer. Do I need prior design experience to take this course?

Absolutely not! We teach you the concepts and techniques of Staging and you will learn what to do in class. We'll help you develop your natural talent, so you'll be able to excel in Staging. Remember Staging is NOT decorating or design, therefore you need no prior design experience.

Are there any yearly fees to keep my designation current?

Your ASP designation, membership to the Staging University and feature page on the Stagedhomes.com website are included in your course tuition. You will need to renew your membership for a nominal fee each year to be considered a current ASP, to continue use of logos, and access the Staging U.

Are there any scholarships or financial aid for the course tuition?

Stagedhomes does offer a Grant Program for those who qualify. It helps reduce the tuition and we do not offer full scholarships. For payment options please contact us at 800-392-7161.
