FROM: Karen Schaefer, Manitou Springs, CO USA

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

So, when I started to excel with my own Home Staging Business, and then had others ask me to stage for them, and before I knew it, I was speaking all over the country on the topic…I decided right then and there that I was going to really be an “EXPERT.” I was going to do whatever it takes (I call this keeping my WIT…whatever it takes) to be an extraordinary coach and mentor and that I would teach the systems, marketing concepts and business strategies that put me on top and that every Home Stager, Designer and Real Estate Agent needs in order to become a success.

And that is exactly what I have done. Having said all that, I think you should know the person that you are placing in your trust, so let me tell you a little about myself. I am a nationally recognized speaker, author, coach and expert on Home Staging, Real Estate Marketing and Property Investments. I have been interviewed on Radio, TV and in Print around the world. I also have clients all over the United States, in England, Ireland, Puerto Rico, Australia, New Zealand and Canada.

I have shared the stage and screen with people like Bruce Willis, Sarah Jessica Parker, James Woods, Ron Le Grand- the biggest Real Estate Guru in the World, Dan Kennedy- The #1Million Maker for Entrepreneurs-even had a chance to interact with other amazing business people, like George Ross and Ivanka Trump of The Apprentice and The Donald Trump Organization, "quiet" entrepreneurs and visionaries like Gordon Jump (remember the lonely Maytag Man?) and others that aren't so quiet…like Gene Simmons of KISS (yes, he is a bit eccentric, but did you know he is a billionaire and owns more licenses for concert product than any other singer alive?). I have even been featured on HGTV.

Why am I telling you this? I want you to know that I have worked hard to get to where I am today, and teh I am real, honest and credible.

I am still a professional actor. I am a card carrying member of SAG, The Screen Actors Guild. I do what I love, everyday. (I even get into Movies for FREE!)

My staging system has its roots in the Movie Industry. It is all about "Scene Creation," "Pockets of Emotion™," "eliciting pre-determined response," and "targeting the right audience," you get the idea. But mostly, it is about telling a story…and this is key to selling a home…if there is not story, nothing for the buyer to attach to, then, there is no sale. Being in the movies taught me to tell a story and even today, there is nothing I like better than a good story.

In addition, I am an entrepreneur, visionary and business owner. There is abundant opportunity right now in the Home Staging and Real Estate Industries and I have a BIG vision that will allow all of us to live life we have always dreamt of while working in businesses that we love.

I believe in running a business that I love. Hopefully, you know what I mean by that. So many Home Staging Training companies just teach you about “plants, candles and towels” and that is fine, but don’t you want to know how to make money as well? I love home staging and I love making money which is why when I teach,

I teach both the practical application as well as the business strategies. I think that is why so many already certified Home Stagers also come to APSD™, because they were never taught how to REALLY run a Home Staging Business by the other “guys.”

Okay, I digress. Sorry, once I start talking about running a business, I get so excited! There is just nothing better to me than to see our members achieve success!

Now, back to me :), I have written several books and manuals on Home Staging and Real Estate Marketing along with producing multiple CD's, DVD's, monthly magazines and weekly staging training tips.

Today, I am considered to be one of the nation's leading experts on staging, marketing, selling, coaching and mentoring. And most importantly, I love what I do, and take great pride in it, each and every day!

Enough about me, now you know I am a real person...let's talk about you!

There are so many choices in Home Staging Training on the market right now. I know that I am not the first one you have come to. There are Home Staging Training companies promising employment…if you meet their criteria, they accept you, you complete their course (does that mean you have to 'pay for' work?), you leap over tall mountains and beat off an anaconda…you get the idea...kind of ridiculous.

Other Home Staging Training Companies are telling you that they have been around long enough to have named "the earth." Well, that might be true, but longevity does not always mean you are the best, sometimes, it just means you have been around for awhile and might need an update.

And yet, still other Home Staging Certification Businesses are promising you that they are the only national certification program in all of N. America…really? That just tells me they don't do their research, because, well, there is more than one. You know that and so do I. There are many. You just have to find the one that is right for you.

The thing that really bothers me about all of the so-called "Home Staging Training Companies" is that none of them actually owns and operates a "Home Staging Business." They just train. I don't know about you, but I always want to learn from someone that is out there in the field doing it… staging, running a warehouse, doing curb appeal and helping to sell houses….rather than learn from someone who is just talking about it.

That is why, after years of people asking me to do it, I have finally decided to release the very first, one of a kind…

APSD™ Certified Home Stager Training Program

The Perfect Combination of Home Staging Training and The Business of Home Staging.

Why did I wait so long? Well, as most of you know, I have been busy doing on-location live home staging training with my Certified APSD™ Stager Pro's. I was also creating a path for 6-figure incomes for my team of nationally certified APSD™ Property Scene Designers so they could successfully run their own staging companies based off of my already proven and successful model of my own Home Staging company, Simple Appeal, Inc. (By the way, as a Certified APSD™ Home Stager-you will work with these people in the future! How cool is that?)

Then of course, there was my national speaking tour schedule where I had the chance to meet so many of you. Plus, I try to squeeze in writing a new book or two each year in order to give you the absolute most current information available! You can imagine why it has taken me some time to release this new...

APSD™ Certified Home Stager Training Program.

And mostly, for those of you that know me, you know that I won't do anything until it is 110%. Even if that means that I have lost a few people to my competition. That is okay-you have to do what is best for you, but I know what is best in the Home Staging Industry because I am out there in the field, with you, doing it every single day---and loving every single minute of it.

I only want the very best for you and that means not only teaching you home staging techniques, but also about the industry, and finally, how to make money!

Yippppeee! Can you smell the freedom?

I have so many men and women who call me and tell me that they love home staging and want to be an APSD™ Certified Home Stager or even own their own Home Staging Business.

Whenever I ask them "why," they tell me they LOVE Home Staging and Design and they want to work for themselves, and maybe even run their own Home Staging Business! They tell me they have put off this dream for years and years, putting everything and everyone else before themselves.

So, now, they say:

"It is my turn now."

I think that you get to a point in life, whether it is in your 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's or even 70's (Our most admirable APSD Member is a Certified Property Scene Designer, and she is rockin' the industry in her 80's) and you decide it is "your turn." It does not matter if you are rich or poor, male or female, business savvy or street smart.

This has certainly been the case with so many of our APSD™ Members.

Let's face fact's, you work hard for others your whole life, whether it is for your family, an employer or, more often than not, both.

You put aside your dreams and aspirations to give the kids a better start in life, to pay the mortgage…to be "safe." Then, one morning you wake up, and realize that life is short and you never had the chance to do the things that you really wanted to do.

What was it you once said: "Someday, I will run my own business." "I want to be my own boss." "I would love to tour all of Europe…" "I want to be debt free and have plenty of money in the bank." "I want my kids to have an easier life than mine and I want help people" What happened? I think they call it "life."

Ok, but how much longer will you let "life" take control of everything you ever dreamed of or wanted? Do you think you have the ability to actually take back control and live the life you always dreamed of?

It is "your turn" and it is time to start that new career in the Home Staging Industry today. If not now, when?

Call Toll-Free - 1-877-900-STAGE

Oh, what is that? Here come the excuses…or, if you will excuse me for calling them what they really are….here is the FEAR…

Excuse #1- "I just don't have the time to start something new." Yep, none of us does. I used to think that too, but it just got to the point that I was so tired of robbing Peter to pay Paul. So tired of being depressed and mostly so tired of depriving myself of things that I knew I deserved. After all, I was not asking for it to be delivered to me on a silver platter….I was willing to work for my dreams. So, I had to decide… what about those dreams…my dreams?

Excuse #2 - "I don't have the money." This is always a big one, especially in a lousy economy. I remember when Pete (my husband) and I were over $118,000 in credit card debt and we had no idea how to get out. We did not own a home, so there was nothing to sell. We certainly had not saved any money and the truth is we did not even have a savings account-only checking. The only thing we had was our pride, which would not let us ask for help. But, somewhere deep down in my heart, (or deep down in my ego), I knew that there had to be a way out, but it certainly was not by doing things the same way as we had been doing them. I just knew, call it women's intuition, that if I did not make a GIANT LEAP (and yes, figuratively as well as spiritually) that I would never go forward. That my life would continue on in the same old direction. Always out of time, always out of money, always out of passion.

Yes, I had to be honest with myself..."If you always use money as an excuse not to go forward, will lack of money eventually send you backward?" I was not going to let that happen. After all, what is the worst case scenario? I fail. Well, heck, I don't know about you, but I am good at that…I know how to fail…it is comfortable for me…done it a million times! It is the fear of success that scares the heck out of me!

So, I took a deep breath and went after what I wanted. We pulled ourselves out of that $118,000 of credit card debt in 1 year…yep, just one year! Today, less than 4 years later, I am worth well over a million dollars and my income has increased by over a 1000%. But, I did not let the excuse of "I don't have the money" hold me back, and you can't either.

Excuse #3- "My spouse does not support my dreams." It is far easier if you and your spouse or partner are on the same page, I would agree with that. But, when I first started, Pete did not believe in what I was doing. Nope, he is a great guy, but he was certain that I was off on a "get rich quick" pipe dream. That was, of course, until I made money…and I don't mean little money, I mean "$127,000" kind of money!

Then, of course, he quit his job and became my business partner!!! (Can you imagine being in a position to quit your job-or being able to give that opportunity to your spouse?)

So, in a way, I had to prove myself to Pete. Not because he did not trust me, but we think differently and he wanted to make sure we were "safe." Well, I appreciate that, but can I just tell you, "safe" is what landed us in $118,000 of credit card debt with no way out. "Safe" was not cutting it. Plus, I was not fulfilling any of my dreams. I followed him around the country, supported his career, but now, it was my turn, and I knew I could do it.

I knew, that I could turn things around for us and live the life I always wanted while building my own career as a Home Stager in the Home Staging industry. A career that I wanted and loved! And you know what…now, Pete works with me every single day and we live an awesome life on our own terms!

Whether you and your spouse are looking to work together or not, just imagine the possibilities if you had an extra $50,000 a year and time to do what you wanted, when you wanted to do it.

Starting to sound good? Don't wait any longer. Make the choice today to live your dream and become a Certified APSD Home Stager™. I realize that many of you are already certified and I understand. So many of our members come to us already certified and sadly, they are angry and upset that they did not come to APSD first because they feel as though they were “taken advantage of” by other companies. No one taught them how to run a Home Staging Business…but now they know! That is the difference between this training, and any other training you will ever take.

Plus, because we have so many Interior Designers and Real Estate Agents that also take our training, not only is it a great place to share your knowledge, expertise and referrals, but we completely cover how to use Home Staging as an additional income stream to add to your existing business. And, let’s face facts, in today’s world, we need all the additional streams we can get!

Here is the good news for you. I am not any different than you, and if I can change my life and fulfill my dreams of running my own Home Staging Business in such a short period of time, with a husband that was not yet “on board” and income so low I had to put a “-“ in front of it… then so can you!

But of course, you don't just have to take my word for it. How about if you hear it from other people, around the country who have invested in themselves in order to live life on their own terms by running their own Home Staging Company or becoming a Home Stager…

"Hi everyone! My mom, Tina, and I are so excited... we just completed our first full staging and it sold in just 4 days!! Yeah!! We are so thrilled and so is the realtor who told us she "loves Home Staging SoCal" (our business name). Best of all, we already have our 2nd job lined up which is a digi-stage. I tell you, these staging methods sell themselves. Thanks Karen for creating such wonderful techniques and such a great business opportunity. We're off and rolling...!" Terri and Tina Garner APSD Stager Pro™ and Property Scene Designer™, HomeStagingSoCal.com

KAREN-PLEASE! TELL ME HOW MUCH!!!

Oh-is that what you are waiting for?

Well, the entire system has a total value of $4452 which I am sure
many of you would happily pay now that you have had the opportunity to hear about
the extraordinary content, systems and program in its entirety.

But I will tell you what I will do. I am a straight shooter and
I want you to absolutely LOVE this program.

I am going to take the $4452 all the way down to $997-

Just $997 to have a whole new career in just 6 sessions!

BUT, hold on….I promised you something EXTRA special when you listened to my video…right?
So, not only will I include all the amazing bonuses that I listed above, but if you decide right now that this system is for you, then I am also going to give you one more extra bonus…are you ready…

First of all, let me tell you why...

I think the Home Staging Industry is ready to explode. As a matter of fact, within a few years, I don’t think you will ever find a home for sale that has not been staged. So, the time is ripe to develop your home staging business right now.

Thankfully, I have been blessed with so many gifts in the Home Staging and Real Estate Industries, so I want to share those gifts with you. We have all heard the old saying “what goes around comes around” and that is exactly what happens. So, I am happy to share because when I share with you, and your business grows, mine grows too! Now we are both getting great benefit!

So, right now, and only for those that KNOW with 100% certainty that this is the program for you, I am going to give you an EXTRA BONUS of an additional $100 off the program!!! So, it is not $4452, or even half of that……but right now, and only right now (so please respect my integrity) if this is right for you and you want to get started right away, you can take this entire program for only $997

Yes, I know that is unheard of so make sure you take advantage of it even if you are new, already certified, an agent, or a designer because this course is unlike any other!

So if you are serious about changing your life and your business today, if you have done your homework and know that learning home staging and the business of home staging is right for you, then please, take advantage of this offer now.

Okay, Okay, it all seems great, right? But you are still reading, so obviously you have one more question… So what is the magic question?

“How Much Money will I make?”

Well, let's see…if I can show you a way to do staging's and make up to $500 an hour, and you only want to work 5 hours a week-what is that worth to you? That means you could work 5 hours a week and make $2500 a week or $10,000 a month.

But, say you are just getting started---so maybe you will make $50 an hour-how much money do you make per hour now?

Here is the scoop-you can make anywhere from $35 an hour up to $500 an hour depending upon how you want to run your business. On average, an APSD™ member makes $220/hour and other staging certification programs have their average come in at $18/hour.

You decide which one works best for you.

So, if I can show you how to make $50/hour working only 20 hours a week and you can now make $4000 extra each month part- time, is that worth it to you?

And, obviously, I could easily charge $4000 for the program right? Because you would make your money back in the first month-what other business can you invest in that allows you to make all of your investment back in the first month? Not many, I can tell you that!

But, I am not going to ask for $4000. As a matter of fact, even with all the great information, the availability to our office and the referrals to our Property Designer team, I did not even ask for ½ of that…not even 1/4...only 1 EZ payment of $997. to change your career, and change your life…today.

What is important now is that you make a choice.  If you decide “no” then please let me know why so that I can continue to make this the very best Online Home Staging Training Program.  If you decide “yes,” then congratulations!  I will look forward to working together and helping your business grow.

No matter what you decide, just make a choice today, so you can move forward tomorrow.

AND, just as a final tip, from Home Stager to Home Stager:

Don't invest in any book or training about Home Staging unless it meets the following 5 criteria:

There is a lot of confusion surrounding our field.  I want to give you 5 criteria or elements you absolutely, positively, must look for in any training you buy that promises to help you become a Certified Home Stager:

1. Make sure the person’s advice you are taking is a top producing Home Stager themselves.  In other words, don’t take coaching from someone who does not have their own active Home Staging company.
   
   
2. Find systems and proven strategies that are easy to implement and won’t cost you and arm and a leg. It is okay to stretch but don’t go broke with someone you are not sure of.
   
   
3. Make certain that you can learn both practical Home Staging techniques as well as Money Making Business Strategies.
   
   
4. Confirm that what you are being taught can work for any type of home, occupied or unoccupied, any neighborhood and any area. In other words, you are being taught a correct strategy and philosophy, that can work forever.
   
   
5. Look for a system that feels natural for you.  That allows you to guarantee results, make money and save time.  But, it also allows for creativity, honesty and integrity. You always want ideas that match your high level of integrity instead of “stale, cookie-cutter” techniques that are long since out dated.

Well, that is it. It is all I have in me! It is the best I can do., or maybe, you want to know that I will personally guarantee it, and I will!

MY PERSONAL GUARANTEE I really want you to love this course and the Home Staging Industry. That is why I put so much into this and made it such a great deal for you. But, if after the first session of the course, you decide that it is simply not going to be for you, just let us know. We will refund 100% of your investment and I will wish you well. So, seriously, watch the first session and get all you can from it…you have nothing to lose. As a matter of fact, I am so confident that this course will get you on your way to success in the Home Staging industry that if you decide after the first session that it is not for you, I want you to keep the One Year APSD Membership™ as my gift to you! That is how invested I am in your Success!

I have just one more thing to tell you, before I meet you during the Certified APSD™ Home Stager Program…

You have nothing to lose and only dreams to fulfill, the choice is yours, all you have to do is say; "it is my turn."

See you on the training!

To your growth and success,

Karen Schaefer, Founder, APSD; The Association of Property Scene Designers The World Leader in Home Staging Training and Certification
