I decided to invest in myself and purchase Audra's training to properly launch my home staging & interior design business. I have my Masters in Interior Architecture and have design experience, but felt clueless and overwhelmed how to really build a business and market it for success. After attending several free webinars from Audra, I was impressed with her straight forward approach. As a SAHM it's taken me several months to get through the training, but I took her advice and kept my momentum going! I can't wait to launch my business- thanks so much!

After retiring from my career as a school teachers and administrator, I was looking for a new pt-time career in design and eager to be trained through a solid, affordable program that encompassed design, redesign and how to get a business started.
HRS alllowed me to work at my own pace. Audra keeps it fresh and stimulating even in a pandemic with virtual happy hours and tips for e-design. I love being a member of such a supportive and encouraging group - always willing to help. Thank you!

The HSR training has been phenomenal! The thorough and easy-to-follow videos, readings, and handouts have helped me feel very prepared to launch my staging and redesign business, even with very little prior staging/styling background. Well worth it!

The training, the presentation of the information, the way and the order in which it is presented, with both video and book work, really keeps you engaged. It is super informative, with lots of examples, before and after. Audra keeps it simple and to the point. Not a lot of FLUFF, but every day, every budget, information and examples. She has years of experience and passes all of this to you in your training. The ability to look back to the book or go back online to watch the videos again, is extremely valuable. The FB page and the other social media avenues for reinforcement and continued support, is one of the things to set this training apart from other trainings.

Audra's Home Staging Resource training is excellent. She truly offers the A to Z aspects of staging or redesigning a home. Her videos are easy-to- watch, informative, and bring her training and expertise to us. Her manual is comprehensive. Her HSR Library of materials are super time-savers in getting started or being organized. After taking this course, it has reignited my passion for staging and redesign. I am confident that I am prepared and knowledgeable to immediately start my successful staging and redesign business, Gulf Coast Staging. Lily Ann Gathings

I truly enjoyed the training, it gave me confidence and knowledge that I was looking for to gain. The information was clear and easy to follow and truly feel ready to start my business and be successful.

I have been in the home staging industry for almost 10 years and until recently I didn't think having formal training was necessary. Audra provided me with invaluable advice in terms of marketing strategies and alternative revenue streams! I cannot wait to implement what I've learned and grow my business! Thank You Home Staging Resource!

Audra Slinkey and the HSR training has been outstanding! I searched many staging training companies before deciding on this one and I know without a doubt, I found the best! I have been a stager for 8 years, but never had the confidence to take my business to the next level until going through this training. EVERY element of training you need, and more, are found in Audra's training! She is thorough, organized, concise and genuine! She truly wants you to succeed and makes sure you have all the tools to do so. She is also very involved and makes you feel like a friend and not just another student! I would highly recommend her training to anyone thinking about joining the staging industry!

I have been a realtor for 8 years and commonly staged my clients homes without any formal training, because I knew their homes would sell quicker and for more money if properly staged. Honestly though, it is because I love to decorate. I had taken a staging course previously for realtors which pretty much gave me basics, but not much else. When I moved from Colorado to South Carolina I didn't want to get my real estate license and start all over. I decided that if I have to start at something all over I'd rather be a full time stager. I wasn't in the HSR class for long, but following along with the outline I started getting calls. My first job with with a home builder doing model homes. My second was with a new home owner buying their first new home. I'll admit I was scared and excited at the same time. But with the resources HSR gives you, such as stagers connect, (this was a life saver), and all step by step forms, it really went smoothly. I would highly recommend HSR if you are serious about becoming a stager!

I just completed the HSR training which is by far the best certification program out there!!! I researched a lot of the staging training companies, and you will not receive all of the knowledge that Audra shares in any other program. You get so much information and resources that it is mind blowing. I can't wait to get my business up and running!!

I have never been provided with so much of a helping hand, period.

This training has superseded my expectations ten,... no one-hundred fold. This program has far more information than I can obtain mentally (before "getting in there and doing it myself") and that is what makes it so amazing.

I love that Audra provides a place I can go online (her training website) to research and review information….and she doesn’t stop there! Stagers Connect is a private Facebook group for her trainees to get together and share ideas, information and so much more. In addition to this, she mails you a ~2” thick spiral bound training book for your training and reference. She provides templates for advertising, marketing, trainings and even websites. Her tips, tricks and ideas are boundless and her devotion to her trainees and this field are inspirational. I couldn’t have created this business without her. I am graciously thankful.

This training has given me the confidence to start a career doing something that I have wanted to for years but hadn't had the courage. Not knowing the inner details of starting a business like, how much to charge, details on having a contract, starting a website etc. had kept me from pursuing my dream. Now I feel like I can take this leap of faith and put my best foot forward. Thank you for the positive affirmations Audra.

Signing up for the Home Staging Resource's 21-Day HSR Certification Training is the best decision I made for myself and my business. The cost is justified in the amount of forms you receive alone and the videos and training materials are a huge bonus! Audra truly sets you up for success and CARES about that success. I feel prepared, knowledgeable and supported and couldn't be happier that I found Audra and the HSR community!

I have enjoyed the training I have received from Audra at HSR! I have always had a love for design and redesigning spaces but her business ideas and experience with marketing has really made this an enjoyable and exciting experience for me! I enjoy the feedback and ideas shared on Stagers Connect and I look forward to being an HSR member for many years to come!

Before taking the HSR course, I never even knew E-Design existed. Often times, I would try to piece together some sort of an idea board using Publisher or another software, but I could never achieve a clean, well designed board. After taking Audra's E-Design course, it has been a true game changer for my business, and I believe I've only touched the tip of the iceberg. So excited to find new ways of incorporating E-Design into my staging business!

What can I say Audra. You were the very first staging company that I selected when I started my staging business back in 2017 and here I am still. One of the reasons I selected you, there were many, was "hands down" all of the resources you provided. I am a resource queen myself and you totally spoke my language. Since then, I have taken your Color course and most recently E-Design. I must make a confession here, even though I absolutely love my successful vacant staging business, I am secretly having a love affair with everything color, design & redesign.

Thank you for opening up some many wonderful opportunities within this industry for so many of us and for having a huge positive impact on my life. I look forward to 2021 and seeing what is on the horizon for you and your next award winning innovation.

Warm Regards,
Theresa Ceglio, We Stage Jacksonville

I have years of experience designing and staging, very successfully. I was torn about whether I needed to be certified and asked around. I kept going to Audra's special events and was drawn to this course, finally deciding more knowledge is more power. Best decision ever!! The promo materials and handouts alone are worth the price of the class. They are beautiful. I have learned so much I thought I knew, and motivated beyond! Audra is a phenomenal educator, teaching in such a way that you feel like it's live. Amazing. If you are thinking about it, do it!

The HSR training is detailed, comprehensive, and will provide anyone with an eye for design with all the step by step instructions needed to start a successful home staging business. The training is also filled with practical tips and interviews from others who have been certified and are operating successful decorating ventures. Audra's energy and enthusiasm is motivating. Her words of encouragement and regular emails are inspiring. I appreciated the often needed confidence boost! I also appreciate getting regular emails and tips as a continued member to get a constant stream of motivation and informative webinars and industry updates. Audra, thanks for a great resource to help creative people realize that a career in decorating and design is valued and possible!

It took me a long time to make the decision that I wanted to seriously pursue home staging as a career (after my corporate job was eliminated due to COVID). I had never allowed myself to dream that I could have a job doing something I've loved doing all of my life as a hobby and get paid for it! COVID forced me to reassess what the next chapter looks like. I found the course to be incredibly thorough and on point. I just met with my local RESA chapter for the first time, and found the talking points to be 100% consistent with what Audra teaches, even though many of those in attendance had not gone through this course. So I was even more confident that the training I have received in this course was valuable and credible. I'm alternatively scared and excited about launching my business, but I know a LOT more than I did when I started the course, and know that these resources will continue to support me as I begin to help clients and hopefully expand my business. Thanks, Audra!

The HSR Staging & Redesign course covered everything you need to know to start your own staging and redesign business. From a step by step guide to the FEEL HOME staging philosophy to branding, marketing, flyers and presentations. This course walks you through everything you need to know to not only be a stager but a successful stager.

The HSR training has been an amazing and transformative experience for me. I began the training in the early days of Covid-19 quarantine with the idea of chasing my dream of transitioning to home staging and redesign when I retire from teaching down the road. The first week was intense and overwhelming but Audra's voice kept ringing in my ear.....keep the momentum going! It was a struggle at times because I was still teaching remotely. The things that kept me going were my students and the HSR training. The training kept me inspired, positive, and quite frankly, sane while quarantining at home. My dream has now turned into a reality as I take my certification test and do my first half day staging on the same day! Best timing ever! Thank you, Audra, for giving me the information, tools, direction, and hope for my new second career as a home stager and re-designer in my new business, Sonata Home Design.

I am so glad I took this course. It took me longer then expected to complete; however Audra has prepared me in more ways then I ever expected. I cannot thank her enough and can't wait to start my next class with her!

Fantastic training program! Audra is so easy-going, real, knowledgeable and hits all the nails right on the head! She gives you a friendly, realistic, amazingly organized and reassuring presentation in her videos ...and I love her giggle and inviting glass of wine! LOL I never tire of watching and listening to Audra! The manual is a treasure trove of invaluable information, tips, worksheets, progressive subjects and chapters...very very detailed and covers an amazing amount of ground! I was a home furnishings store design consultant for years working with clients and a realtor who staged my listings and some other agents' listings so I've worked with clients and agents every which way, and Audra really understands all angles and aspects and brings that specialized training to you! The training is a great combination of manual and videos and the extra support she offers in fb stagers connect, workshops online, resources, etc is super! I would highly recommend HSR and the professional credentials in completing the program and certification you earn!

Being a Home Stager for 17 years I wanted to add this designation to my business. I was completely amazed at the forms, useful tools, and wealth of information this course provided. If this course had been around 17 years ago, it would have made a world of difference in every way.

As I've begun building my business, Beautifying Spaces LLC, a critical component was laying a foundation of education. I thoroughly researched staging training and decided on HSR. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made, far exceeding even my highest expectations in Audra's unmatched expertise, beyond comprehensive training materials and support network There is absolutely nothing like it and I believe it has made the difference between endless cold calling and confident, educated, state of the art staging and marketing! Thank you doesn't even come close to expressing my gratitude to Audra and HSR!

Through the HSR training, Audra gave me not only the tools that I needed to be successful but also the confidence to know that I can do this. It is certainly a lot of work to build a business, research, network and market your brand, but the HSR training made it enjoyable! It was especially helpful to learn all of the other opportunities that can come after starting your staging business like staging Airbnbs, partnering with vendors and realtors, and offering holiday decorating services. I'm excited to get my business up and running!

I have been a designer for many years but I am fairly new to staging. I have learned SO much from this program and I think it's great how Audra really pumps you up to be successful! I love the Stagers Connect where I can get to know other stagers and the successes as well as problems they have and how everyone comes together to help each other.

I am so grateful for the information contained in the Home Staging Resource training. I have taken other staging courses and college level design courses that have not given me the amount of information that Audra has included.

Thank you Audra for truly covering every aspect of starting a new business. I went into this training nervous, confused, and with a very blurred idea of what home staging is. Now, just by following the detailed steps of the training, I have a full company that I am CONFIDENT about and I'm so excited and ready to make homes beautiful! I was happy to discover that not only does Audra cover home staging, but she also provides more business ideas for you to get involved with and make extra money! This industry is full of opportunity once you jump on in! I feel like I chiseled off the first 2 years of trial and error for a startup business and I no longer see any room for failure. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Trust the process people, this gal knows what shes doing!

I have found the training to be invaluable. Though I've been in the real estate and construction industries for almost 30 years, I feel this course has saved me from making a lot of costly mistakes starting out. I didn't know, what I didn't know! I would highly recommend everyone who has an interest in getting in the home staging business take Audra's course. Plus, as a fast talker, get to the point gal myself, I really appreciated Audra's communication style!

With over 30 years experience in the decorating/design field, I didn’t think I would get that much from the training. A friend convinced me to take the course just to see if we were missing something. I was certainly surprised at all the information available, I learned plenty! What is fantastic is all the resources and forms available to use. It was very helpful to for us to start offering staging in our business. Thanks, Audra!

Audra has sincere passion and dedication to the staging industry as demonstrated through her training. I chose to embark on this journey with Audra as a trainer because I like her realist approach to business, her positive attitude, and attention to detail in her training materials. Education and learning is a necessity for me as I am curious by nature. Audra far exceeded my expectations as I learned more through her course then I could have anticipated. Thank you, Audra.

I have completed both the Staging course and the e-design course. I love the way the information is not only practical but immediately usable as well. I was able to start working with my first e-design client right away. I am not techy, but by using the training and videos, I was able to easily handle using the e-design technology.

Audra's training was thorough and so full of relevant information. One of the reasons I chose this training was because she talked about continuing to update the curriculum as trends and technology changes. I loved being assured that when I completed this course, I would have the history and foundation of staging and design as well as the validity of the current trends and field scope. I loved the variety of videos, print materials, photos and testimonials which really gave me an immersive learning experience and allowed me to fully grasp the concepts. It was encouraging to see and here the results others have had in the industry and know that I have the capability to follow in their footsteps.

I am impressed beyond words at the value that I received with the Home Staging Resource Certification program. I am still overwhelmed with the information provided and know that I will use the members site and the manual for a very long time! I am a full time corporate associate during the day working as a Director in the Human Resources field. It took me 3 months to finish this 3 week program, so do not think that you can't do it. I just finished my first home staging consultation a few days ago and I am now partnered with a local agent that has already booked consultation #2! I am truly excited about this program and what it has provided me to kick start my business!

The training that I have received through Home Staging Resource and Audra has far exceeded any of my expectations that I had when I originally set out to own my own business in home staging and redesign. This course has provided me with a countless number of tools and in-depth training to succeed in my business. I will continue to use this course as resource as I build my own dream.

Audra's Home Staging Training is fun and comprehensive. Having a background in art & design I was impressed with her knowledge and pulling it all together for staging & redesign. There is a ton of information here! The business foundation is comprehensive and the checklist makes it easy to stay organized by checking off all the completed boxes. The best part about all of it is Audra makes it fun and digestible! You're not going to get that anywhere else! I highly recommend HSR and I look forward to my next course in E-design!

I started this in-depth training during COVID 19 season. I was already "sheltering in place" but we were actually not at our home. I had been staying at our lake house which was mostly vacant with a few staged pieces while on the market to sell. Imagine that. I had a ton of time to dedicate to this and enjoyed every moment. Audra has a clear and decisive way of teaching with the tone she is simply sitting across the table talking with you over coffee. The training in so comprehensive and I honestly do not feel I am missing a thing! If you are like me when I started, you don't know what you don't know! Audra takes care of that. I am so grateful to be able to utilize the wealth of information on the members site as I will need it to refresh continually while starting this business. I learned to stage with the few pieces I had here at our lake house and while I could not get that room shot or "money shot" I know I will have it very quickly! Audra, your kindness and generosity is a blessing. Thank you.

I've been an interior designer for over 30 years. I wanted to add home staging to my services but had no idea how to charge for the staging. Getting my certification from HSR answered my questions as well as gave me creative marketing ideas to reenergize my existing design business.

I researched a lot of home staging training programs before I decided on HSR. Initially, I started my training with a cheap alternative, and unfortunately, you get what you pay for. Round two, I took my time and weighed the pros and cons of several programs. I'm glad I went with Audra's. It was the redesign component along with Audra's personality that were my eventual reasons for choosing HSR. You get a tremendous amount of value and it's nicely balanced with reading material and videos.

I'm so glad that I found Home Staging Resource I learned so much helpful information that I was able to apply to my staging business.

I have worked in a corporate environment for many years, but the Home Staging and Redesign Certification Course was one of the best learning experiences I have ever had. The training is comprehensive with a practical orientation. It is completely based on the experience and research of Audra and other stagers. They provide insights, examples and tools that were extremely helpful to develop staging and design skills and build confidence. I never expected to get so much out of an online training course!

HSR gave me much more information than I could have dreamed. I have owned several businesses and have had to start them up from the ground, which takes several months to implement systems and a lot of trial and error. HSR has already done the trial and error and allows me to implement systems and data immediately What a time saver! It also gives me the confidence from knowledge learned to implement my business immediately.

This training can be a little overwhelming with SO MUCH information! Give yourself some grace and take it one step at a time. Really absorb it, and know that you always go back and refresh it over and over again with the information always being there! I'm thrilled to get started!

I enjoyed everything about the Home Staging Resource course. Audra over delivered and exceeded all my expectations. For a home program the sessions were quite robust and covered an array of topics for establishing your Home Staging business. The handbook and videos were well organized, providing you with concise tips and tricks of the trade so you can easily navigate through the staging industry. No reason to recreate the wheel, HSR provides you with all the forms, resources and knowledge so you can spend the time building your business and branding yourself.

A comprehensive guide not only to Home Staging, but how to run your business. This training provides ALL the tools and resources you would need to get started and do it right the first time.

I am so grateful to have found Audra's Training , she and her team did an outstanding job on this course. It was everything I thought it would be and more. I am also so thankful for each and every document she has given to us to help us succeed in our business. This course has given me the confidence and knowledge need to start to build a business for myself and my family. Although I am just building my business I do feel hopeful that I can succeed due to taking this course. I can tell a lot of work has gone into development of the course and again I truly grateful!! I do see myself taking the color course next! I have told people about how great this course is and will continue to do so . Thank you Audra and all others involved! You are amazing , thank you thank you and thank you!!

Sincerely ,
Amecia Miles

I have been so impressed with the amount of information and resources provided in this training. am armed with business forms, marketing materials and overall industry knowledge that is invaluable. Launching a new business at first seemed so daunting to me, but now I am educated and prepared to grow my staging business - and take it beyond my initial vision.

I would absolutely recommend this program to others considering this industry. You won't regret it!

This course has been amazing. I am so excited to get my business started and use the knowledge that I have gained from Audra's instruction and the HSR Staging and Redesign Certification to help people make their homes comfortable, organized and beautiful places to live, guide them in using what they already have to transform their home for themselves or to get top dollar in resale when prospective buyers FEEL HOME.

HSR Training with Audra was incredibly helpful and insightful. I had already started my business and received previous training but the first training I took was dated and disappointing (kind of like so many houses before staging!). I struggled for a while and then I found HSR training and it was amazing. It answered so many questions and taught me so much of what I use today. My business is growing, thanks to Audra and her wonderful training.

I can not say enough good things about this training. I know a lot of people say that and it's so very true. Can't even imagine how many hours Audra has put into this EXCELLENT training. Definitely worth the price! I would have NEVER had the confidence before to make my dream come true. Now I can honestly say I do and more than I ever thought I could. Thanks Audra for this AWESOME training and the confidence to be able to follow my dream.

Thank you Audra, this course was beyond my expectations. It was slow going for me at first because of how much information was provided, once I got use to the style and organization of the website, I'm so appreciative of all the forms and the videos you shared. All of the THE MARKETING SECTION, cannot say enough about this aspect of your training. These are all questions I had when I started the program, "how am I going to market?" You answered every question before I could even ask it!

I honestly was actually humbled to have been told by a friend about Home Staging Resource for the training and certification program. I am a full time working single mother of three kids. I am a Monday through Friday, 8-5 worker with periodic overtime still trying to make ends meet. I have ambitions and goals to further myself and better myself, not just for me but to leave a legacy for my three kids. Being my own boss one day to as well have the time for sports and any appointments needed for the kiddos. To have a job where my kids eventually will have a job with me if they so decide. I am extremely excited to be my own stability. I am so incredibly happy with the layout of the training let alone the amount of time I am given to complete the course in order to get certified. It definitely has helped with all that life brings. Thank you so much for this opportunity!

I have been overwhelmed with the wealth of information I have received through the Expert E-Designer training program. I am so excited to use what I have learned and to avail of the templates and resources shared throughout the course. I am extremely confident that all of the above will elevate my Interior Decorating and Color Consultation services, as well as the Occupied Staging services I will be offering in the near future. My clients will benefit tremendously from all this knowledge. I am also in the midst of the Certified Color Expert training program which is amazing! Thank you, Audra, for opening my eyes to the potential I always knew existed but did not quite know how to achieve!

I really loved Audra's training, as it was not just all book knowledge but very hands-on and visual with lots of sample materials for marketing a new business.

I started my business as a Professional Organizer in 2018. I knew that I wanted to grow my business, but I was lacking in the resources of branding and marketing myself. Taking this training, I'm not going to lie, it has been very overwhelming for me. It felt like I was being stretched like a rubber band. On top of that I am not tech savvy. Double whammy!! Above all I am grateful and blessed. I want to take this opportunity to acknowledge and thank Audra for the work that she has done in helping me overcome my fears and doubts. Because of this training not only have I gained confidence in myself, I also feel I gained a friend in Audra.

When it comes to home staging training Audra is the best! She has enabled me, coached me and given me the confidence to jump into the world of home staging.
Not only was the course both fun and challenging but Audra’s enthusiasm and knowledge in the field of design/business adds a value that can’t be measured. She has a calm, fun and logical method of teaching that truly connected and inspired me. I can’t speak highly enough of this course. Thank you, Audra!!

I have taken other HSR courses in the past (Staging & Redesign, Certified Color Expert, Certified Expert E-Designer), and I immediately signed up for the vacation rental training when it was offered. It packed in so much information, including eye-opening statistics on the increasing popularity of vacation rentals, how to research for proper pricing, information on what vacationers want in a rental, understanding the problems that property owners and managers are looking to solve, and how to promote my specialty training with ready-to-use emails and Canva marketing materials. Vacation rentals are everywhere in my state, and now I feel very prepared to tap into that market!

This is the most thorough Real Estate Staging Course you will ever find out there. It is not just a course on staging it is a course on how to put a business together-from soup to nuts. Audra is the real deal.

I really enjoyed Audra's trainings. Even though she is not in the room with you physically, it feels like it. I love how Audra knew what I was thinking before I even had certain thoughts. She is an awesome and funny teacher. I highly recommend this to anyone who has a passion for design!

During quarantine, my husband and I were on a walk listening to Steve Harvey's JUMP talk on YouTube. I decided to jump. Signed up for the HSR course, designed a logo, spent my days and evenings between my work for my current job and raising kids to complete the certification which was so much fun because you're soaking it all in and loving the information!! It literally took a few weeks and I'm almost completely ready to launch a new career in Home Staging and Interior Styling!! I mean, where else can you become certified and have ALL the information and guidance you need to start your DREAM JOB?!?! This training has been amazing and well worth the time and money (which still isn't much for what you get)! Thank you Audra!

From clueless to confident, the Home Staging Certification Course by Home Staging Resource took my passion for design and turned it into a business ready to thrive! The course was an exhilarating journey filled with invaluable insights, expert guidance, and fantastic extras that truly set it apart. I learned the art of transforming spaces, honed my eye for detail, and gained a treasure trove of practical tips to kick start my career. Could I have done this on my own? I thought I could, until I realized that Audra's class saved me about a year of research and work, yes I still had to put a lot of work into streamlining everything, but i would have never known to do any of those things without HSR's guidance. Thanks to this course, I'm now ready to rock the home staging world, armed with knowledge, creativity, and the confidence to make every house a showstopper. If you're ready to unleash your design superpowers and take your skills to new heights, this course is an absolute game-changer! Get ready to make magic happen!

Audra's Training is very comprehensive and she has taken all the guess-work out of the equation. She even makes sure to enhance and add to the training regularly content, so it remains current and relevant. This allow us to keep up with current industry trends and remain competitive.

Thanks Audra!

Audra's training is the most in-depth course I've even taken. Every single part of the business is covered, not just design. I originally bought this class because I love design and wanted information on decorating my own home. Now I can see the benefit and joy that can be had in starting my own business. I wish I had found this course 15 years ago.

The training was awesome! I had already completed most of the things in Week 1 when I started my business 3 years ago. Week 2 was where I needed Audra the most...and she delivered! There is so much information, so many tools, and instruction. I only wish I had done the training before. Now, it's all about implementation. Thank you Audra and thanks to your team! You rock!

The HSR Staging and Redesign training is Top Notch!!! This training very detailed, extremely informative, insightful and encouraging. When I decided to sign up for the training, I was a bit nervous and not quite sure I could succeed. However, the HSR training gave me the tools to not only start my business, but provided step by step instructions to launch my business properly. This training has taught me more than I ever thought or imagined. Most importantly, it taught me that I CAN DO IT!!! So I can't wait to put my training into practice, and help my clients FEEL HOME!!!

The HSR E-Design training is the best I have found. HSR provides so many templates and so many training modules. Audra does not like for anyone to reinvent the wheel, so she gives you so many resources to quickly make your business a success. The price for what you get is very reasonable. Once you complete the training that is not the end. You have these resources forever and HSR is always there for you if needed.

The HSR Staging and Redesign training course is a MUST if you are thinking of going into the business. I have taken so many notes and learned so much, but it's all the other stuff you don't think about that is GIVEN TO YOU so you can start your business right away. Audra provides all the forms for you to modify as your own and she gives you insider tips, strategies, and examples. What's really great is that you also receive information on "what not to do" and when you're just starting out that alone is so helpful to save you time, money and stress. Who doesn't want that? The HSR certification course is a well laid out training model that's easy to follow and the videos are very inspirational.

When I was looking through the different Home Staging Courses available online, Home Staging Resource stood out the most for the abundance of information it had to offer. With a degree in Interior Design I wasn't looking to spend my money on a course that would " teach me how to match pillows to wall colors ".

This course has been way more than I could have imagined , there was no stone left unturned . Not only did I finish this course without any questions unanswered, I also walked out with a complete How-To Manuel on starting and running a successful Home Staging Business.

I am so Happy I found this Course , It has been everything I didn't know I needed !

I just completed my training! I must say, this training was very informative, very information packed, and very helpful. You would be hard pressed to find a comprehensive step by step guide to setting up your own business anywhere like this! Guys, this is your business wrapped in a bow! Can't get any simpler than that! Thank you Audra 1000 times over!

Wow! I have learned so much about every aspect of Staging and Redesign as well as how to successfully market my business. Audra is a marketing genius, no doubt! The forms and downloads are such a bonus and the references to web-based tools are very helpful. She even offers an incredible website and training tools, E-design and Color design training. She connects you with other Stagers so you feel a part of a team. I highly recommend HSR Staging and Redesign Training.

This training program has been the most thorough and complete program I have ever taken. Audra has provided every marketing tool, handout template, and all the information on how to setup and run a staging business that I have needed to start up my business. I am very pleased with this training program and feel I am set for success as a Home Stager.

The HSR Training allows me to bring my passion to life! I have always had a sweet tooth for staging & design.

The HSR tools & resources are invaluable. I feel as though I have the step by step process to set up a successful business. This allows me to become the Spiritual Farmer to pour myself back into my family, my clients & my community. I love positively impacting people's lives & this allows me to fuel my creative juices.

Audra is brilliant & beautiful! Thank you for your sharing your talents & expertise with me! Grateful to be apart of the HSR Community. Creative Souls Unite!

I think your training is fabulous! You cover a lot of practical detail and make it very enjoyable to learn. The amount of templates you have created to give us a jump start is above and beyond and truly the key to helping us make a success of this new offering. While I have been a Stager and designer since 2006, and have designed a few STRs along the way, I still learned a great deal! There is something for everyone at all levels. This is a new focus for me, and there's a lot to learn if you want to do it right and provide maximum value to clients. The information, processes, templates and the ability to network with others in this specialty are going to provide enormous value to my business. I'm so glad I signed up. Thank you for putting this training together for us!

I've been telling friends, "I wish my college professors had set me up for success as much as Audra has provided in this course." And it's absolutely true. The hours you'd spend on creating forms alone is worth it! Add in all the support, videos, and 24/7 access so you can work when it's convenient for you. I've been making this my midlife passion project, so I'm not in a hurry so much as using all this info to cultivate a business that will grow with me as I grow older. I'm truly grateful and will continue to be a member of HSR to continue to have access to all this valuable info and support.

Another training that knocked it out of the park! As usual, Audra, you do not disappoint. I launched my business immediately after taking your Staging/Redesign Course and put things into practice immediately. After downloading the various contracts, promotional marketing materials, and call scripts, I customized them for my business and deployed them. Once I felt comfortable with the practical application, my goal was to continue building upon the strong foundation you provided. In the last year, I've successfully completed all of your courses, including the purchase of the TrulyBranded Website and Social Media packages. It's been one year since launch and my self-confidence has exploded! I am now a licensed NC Real Estate Broker, as well, and with your encouragement, signed up for RESA. I obtained my RESA-Approved Instructor certification last month and will be teaching staging/design tips for my Keller Williams Great Smokies office here in Western North Carolina. You have equipped me with the knowledge, confidence and SKILL to present the joys of staging/redesign/vacation design/color consults/and E-Design to my clients and colleagues in real estate. You have given me the best gift for which a girl could ask - independence and happiness! I love you to the moon and back, Audra. Seriously talented, inspirational and supportive!!

I am a stay at home mom of two little ones, and I love every moment of that. But I have been struggling with the idea of not having something that is mine; something I can build, take pride in, help my family financially with. I just felt stuck and emptied honestly.
Recently I finally decided to figure out what it was that I wanted to do, and my mind went to Staging. I have looked into it before, even almost attended another company's 3 day staging course, but it never clicked. Then I spoke with a Home Stager that had gone through HSR herself, and she recommended I attend a free webinar, and I knew then that this was the path for me.
I have loved every moment of training, and though I still feel anxious about officially having my own business, Audra's thorough and detailed classes, manual, and forms have given me confidence to jump in!
I plan to rewatch a few different lessons before my business is live, but I am so happy to have gone through this training, and I am excited for this next chapter I get to launch into!
Thank you Audra!

The best decision I made when starting Inhabit Home Staging was training through HSR! Audra in meticulous in sharing her hard-won experience and skill with you so you are more than prepared when you complete her training. Starting your own business is brave because there are so many factors and unknowns, but her training literally provides e v e r y t h i n g ...including the kitchen sink! Yes, I eat, sleep, and drink all things "home", but business best practices and requirements? Not so much! I feel so confident that I have a solid foundation because of this course, could not have done it without her. Thank you, Audra, for sharing all your hard work and expertise so others can confidently succeed in this industry! You are an exceptional and generous mentor!

The training provided by HSR & Audra is top notch. The program is loaded with value providing materials and a step by step plan in design and how to start and operate your business. This training really is from A-Z

I did a lot of free webinars with different staging instructors/mentors prior to signing up with Audra. I felt she had the best learning connection for me. The training was absolutely phenomenal. We had already created our business 2 years before signing up for the HSR training and I wished I had completed it earlier because of the amount of information I learned. I would recommend HSR to anyone thinking of entering the staging industry. A wealth of information. Thank you Audra!

This training was definitely an investment that is invaluable for building a Home Staging and Redesign business. Audra provided limitless resources and a blueprint to follow which took a lot of the guess work out of how to structure my offerings, pricing etc..., as well as provided various alternative income stream options to consider as offerings for my business. I am launching in the next couple weeks and definitely have a sense of confidence that I am more than prepared to start this new chapter of my life!

I absolutely love Home Staging Resources' very comprehensive training. Audra has left no question unanswered about starting your business and the Home Staging industry as a whole. There are so many valuable resources that come with the training. The best part is that you can go back and forth as needed to review areas of focus and/or need clarification on. I recommend this training 100%.

I've enjoyed the training so much. It is so thorough and provides all the details that you need to get your business started. The support provided by Audra and her team is amazing and super responsive! I highly recommend.

I have been staging homes for over a year and I wish that I had taken this training sooner. I have learned so many valuable tips and advice from Audra and the veteran stagers. This training is a must for anyone wanting to learn more about the process, the marketing and the branding for you and your company.

This training has been truly amazing. I have spent many years helping other start their business in the real estate industry and I began to notice that the ones who didn't start with the cornerstones to build their business are the ones that struggles to succeed. This training did just that! It helped me design my business to represent me while also giving me the direction on how to get the ball rolling the right direction and keep the momentum going.

I was so nervous about taking this leap. Audra's training course has made me feel very confident in my choice. The training program provides so much information from example contracts to how to shop! I can not express my gratitude for having this training available to me. Now I can start my business knowing I have found my people, am educated, and have a major support system to turn to when I need.

I love ALL of Audra's trainings. She keeps the modules short so I can pace myself and she provides loads of handouts and other documents for me to use in my business. I really feel my success is her success and she is invested, not just out to add to her numbers. I always recommend HSR when asked about staging training and now I can add CCE too!

The HSR training encompassed everything necessary for an upstart staging business. From process to branding to interpersonal skills to design fundamentals, Audra covers it all. The information is delivered in an organized and engaging manner that invites you to return to the resources easily and often, allowing you to create your personal strategy with Audra's expertise and guidance.

As my friend and business partner discussed focusing on Home Staging, I wanted to learn about everything regarding home staging. I looked at several training options and decided on Audra's program based on the reviews, price and that I could do it online. The HSR program is great and gives way more information that I ever would've thought. You definitely get more than you pay for!

The Home Staging training from Home Staging Resources is thorough and very comprehensive. It provides a lot of the background information that someone would need to get started in the business plus information for some that are already in the business. It is a great course and the pace (at your own) is perfect for anyone. I highly recommend the course, and have already, to others interested in home staging.

I really did my research when I was looking for a certification course. The training and materials I received from HSR is invaluable! Audra has shared so much hands-on information that I feel confident stepping out into the staging world knowing that I am 100% prepared. I would recommend HSR to anyone looking to break into the staging industry.

I first came into home staging when I put my own home for sale that we had lived in for 20 yrs. Our realtor had seen the before and after and went bazooka over the transformation. I had been thinking of it for some time, but he gave me the confidence to go ahead. I found HSR through a local stager who had staged a home that I saw while looking for a new home. (The staging profession was calling me). I am not new to art and design, but the HSR program was so incredibly integral in my learning about the BUSINESS of staging. I couldn't have formed this immediate business so quickly without it. Just while I was DOING the certification, I had earned over $10,000 in 5 months. That was without even marketing, but just casually mentioning it to people I know that I was doing Home Staging certification, I was given staging consults and office redesign projects. Now I am a staging partner with our realtor, a partner with another stager who has a furniture warehouse and have been staging 1M+ homes! Thank you Audra!

This training has been amazing. Everything you could think of wanting to learn in this industry is provided for you. I love that Audra's main mantra is that there is nothing new under the sun so don't reinvent the wheel but be creative. She provides you with forms, sell sheets, example contracts, verbiage to use, everything! This is a lot of information to process but it's so worth it and I feel 10 times more confident starting this business because I have these resources available to me and the training under my belt.

The HSR training was invaluable in not only helping to solidify my choice in making a huge career change, confidently, but feeling as though I have an automatic "dial-a-friend" when needed! I enjoyed the training scope of incorporating the layers of learning (reading/homework & practicing certain applications throughout/videos). Now that I have completed this certification, I will be signing up for the Color Certification & E-Design as well!

This training was absolutely amazing, it gave me so much more confidence to start up my business. I would have never had the courage to move forward with all the resources Audra provided for us. I could not thank you enough for putting all your knowledge into this training to make me pursue a career for myself. If you are looking for resources and be more knowledgeable to take this training with Audra Slinkey.

Audra does it again! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this E-Design Course!!! It was so easy to follow b/c of her enthusiasm and interesting content! Course includes everything you need to incorporate E-Design into your business: marketing materials, forms, how-to videos, web-site buttons, and more! HIGHLY recommend this program for anyone wanting to learn the most cutting edge tools that will help drive revenue and build your staging & design business! Thanks Audra!

The HSR training was phenomenal. Audra really went above and beyond with the training, guides, design modules and supporting documentation. The information she's provided has made this business turn-key. Also by using videos and walking us through critiques, real life situations, and examples, I was able to develop confidence in taking on this new chapter in my life. I can't wait to get my first staging job!

This training has been immeasurable! I know how to make a room look good, but now my business will look good! Everything down to the tiniest of details is covered for you to take and mold into your own model. I will forever be grateful that I found Audra's training and decided to take a chance!

Audra, I finished your new Airbnb vacation rental design course. Thank you so much for this course! This was the third course purchased from you. There is much information to process. I am going through it course for a second time so I can absorb the information and extract your handouts and Canva templates you provide as lead-funnels to incorporate into my website.

I have been in Residential Real Estate for over 20 years, incorporating staging with my projects. The last 5 years working with an investor on flip properties. I have learned to provide an aspirational experience for buyers of properties online and in person. The Airbnb was on my radar but I was unsure how to break into this sector of the business. My goal is to focus my business more on design. I can parlay my design and project management skills into this new venture. I think the courses complement one another very well. Thank you again.
