No assistant needed for home staging consultations

I've been asked by aspiring home stagers whether or not I bring an assistant along with me to home staging consultations.

The answer is no. When I arrive at an initial consultation, I’m not actually doing any staging yet. As we walk through the house, I’m mostly taking everything in and making suggestions for improvements. For example, I might suggest that a large wall unit would look better on a different wall, or that the current living room furniture would work better in the family room. But at this initial consultation session, it’s not going to be moved. These recommendations will go on a to-do list for later.

You can read more about my reasons for not hiring an assistant for home staging consultations in a recent post at the Home Staging Business Report.
