If you have an eye for interior decorating and want to run your own home business, a home staging business can provide a great, low-cost start up opportunity for you and it's a great home business to start part-time on weekends while you're still employed.
Very low start up costs - no inventory to carry and minimal supplies. Services can be in demand whether the real estate market is strong or weak. No licensing or specialized training required. This is a great home business that you can grow through referrals from satisfied clients and/or local realtors.
Word-of-mouth advertising is very powerful for this business opportunity.You'll need to find a way to get potential clients to have faith in your abilities and your advice in order to build your portfolio.
You may need to work weekends and/or evenings, as many of your clients will only be able to meet with you during those times. You should get to know your local real estate market - what buyers are looking for, etc. You'll need to build a portfolio in order to convince potential clients that you're worth the money.
An organized means of building your portfolio - through before and after photos, success stories, etc.
An eye for design/decorating and a good idea of what's selling in your home resale market. Good people skills to convince prospects to sign on and to handle objections from clients if they crop up.
