What a Beauty

/

When I walked into this house to give a staging bid, I saw a big happy family. So much space, so many rooms, big Thanksgiving gatherings, holiday parties…the works! It was a huge job for us Stager Gals.

This friendly neighborhood home is listed by Amy Sajer for Windermere and the steller staging is by the Open House ladies.

Oh to experience the Seattle sunsets. This is the perfect fit for a visual experience inside and out.

Listing by incredible, dedicated, go-the-distance agents Dawn Bourdo and Corey Hays for Compass. And that carefully planned out beautiful staging is by us gals at Open House Staging.

Houzz Pro Review

/

Back in the day when we started our business (18 years ago) very few business tools were at our finger tips. We created invoices from a word document! Archaic…I get it.

At our industry’s monthly meeting, we discuss what works, what doesn’t work, and most importantly how to grow our business. Here’s a tip I like sharing on how to look and act like a Pro:

Sign up for HouzzPro! Tons of resources and shopping at your finger tips.

  1. Leads. Your leads and inquiries come into your mailbox. Soooo… easy to respond and connect

  2. Create your design project then add notes and details

This next one I LOVE:

3. Create Proposals. HouzzPro walks you through the simple process

4. Create Mood Boards and Floor Plans

5. Send and receive messages (plus it saves the conversations in your job file)

My second favorite is this:

6. An easy download of “Clipper” and you can add products with photos and pricing to your proposal from HouzzPro or any other product sources. HOW PROFESSIONAL IS THAT?!!!

7. Invoice and receive payments. (that totally ups your business game!)

Starting or managing your company today does not have to be an 18 year old fuddy duddy process now. You have tools all in one package. Now that’s some good advice, right?
