New Year's Resolution

It is that time again.  Each year it seems to come faster.  The New Year is upon us.  A time to reflect on past events and plan for the future. 

This past year found me earnestly working to grow my Home Staging business here in Broome County, New York.  I started off the year with a small ad in the For Sale by Owner and Realtor Magazine and now write a monthly column.

In March I sponsored a booth at the Greater Binghamton Association of Realtors Agents Day.

In June I traveled to Denver, Colorado to attend STAGE, a training event offered by the Association of Property Scene Designers.  I spent three days networking and learning the ins and outs of the business from stagers who came from across the United States and Canada.  I made many lasting friendships and continue to nurture them through social media sites.

2011 was a tough year economically for many.  My local area has been slow to embrace the concept of Home Staging.  However, 2012 will be the year I  redouble my efforts to share the benefits of Home Staging with my neighbors.  You only need look at the statistics to know that Staging is worthwhile and something sure to catch on given time.

SEE YOU ALL NEXT YEAR.
