New Covers Save 30-40%

If you've been waiting for a good time to save some serious money on some of
the extra advanced training we make available, now might be a good time to jump in.
Here's why.
To help us brand our books and products more effectively, we made the
decision lately to create an immediately recognizable cover design for all or
most of of our exclusively authored books. This will help our products to be
immediately recognizable in the marketplace, keep us from being confused with
our competition, and change up the design and desirability of our
products overall. Don't worry - the same quality training remains the same on
the inside of the books, so you won't be buying anything outdated - it's just
we're planning to change the cover design soon and want to liquidate some of our
stock on hand before that time.
So our predicament is your good fortune.
To help me clear out the older inventory (which still has the same great content in it, just the cover is being replaced), I'm offer fantastic deals while supplies last (which won't be long). Here the area:
Keep checking back for more announcements as we get
going with this special inventory reduction sale.

Tough Times Call for
Extraordinary Tactics
NEW BOOKS ARE FINALLY ON THE WAY - AS SOON
AS THEY COME IN WE WILL FILL THE PRE-SALES ORDERS AND GET THEM OUT THE DOOR
Whenever consultants face challenging times, either economically or personally, the need for deeper, fresh, compelling business tactics and strategies becomes more necessary, even vital for survival for some entrepreneurs.
Home Staging in Tough Times brings together some of the most cutting edge marketing strategies in the home staging industry ever put in print, teaching readers how to think and operate “outside the box” and meet the challenges of the times with a deep passion, a high ethical standard and well-deserved hope.
When I started out there was practically no competition in the marketplace. None. That was great and you would have thought that getting clients was a super easy process. It was not. The reason it was not easy is that the marketplace needed to be
educated. There was no "industry" yet. Concepts were new and there was resistance. But times have changed. Whereas before the real estate market mantra was "Location! Location! Location!" now the mantra has been changed "Staged! Staged! Staged!" As agents and
brokers and homeowners have been educated about the importance of home staging, they are much more willing to look to the services of a home stager (or to do it themselves), but there is more competition in every sense of the word.
Add to that the slowing economy and you have a recipe for a "perfect storm" - where only the fittest will survive. So to help you survive - and even thrive - I decided to write this guide.
Let me tell you briefly about what type of information you can expect to receive:
- Chapter One deals with changing your mindset from what has worked in the past to what needs to work for you in the present and future. You might think this goes without saying - but it actually needs saying and explanation too. Unless you change
your mindset from the standard one to a more creative, "outside the box" kind of mindset, you won't get it and your business might not survive.
- Chapter Two focuses on some more cutting edge tactics for promoting and marketing your business. I'm going to come at it from a different angle than what I teach in my basic training. You're going to discover some more indepth strategies that
you may not have thought of before and see how you can apply them in a down market - a market in which they thrive even better than an up market.
- Chapter Three will discuss how you can orchestra projects and deals in a cashless manner so that it doesn't matter if you have any cash or not and it doesn't even matter if your client doesn't have any cash. You'll learn all about this type of
business dealing and I'll give you the theory, but then I'll also adapt it for you within our industry. This should challenge you enough to come with some additional ideas and nuances of your own.
- Chapter Four delves deeper into the cashless and creative thought process, tactics, strategies and mindset that can propel your business to new heights in all sorts of ways - way beyond the norm. You'll discover that you're not even limited to your
own business but that you can expand and repeat these same ideas in a multitude of ways. Your profits could literally explode.
- Chapter Five - This is the practical chapter because it's filled with form after form after form that will help you pull all this together into the kind of cohesive unit that will serve as the base for all your ideas, tactics and strategies. You know,
I've taken a lot of seminars in my day and read a lot of books. Many have been very, very good - but they would have been soooooo much better if the authors had included practical forms and steps to serve as a thought-provoking guide and organizational tool.
I've done all that for you. Not to worry.
- Chapter Six is a frank discussion of how to hire some of the most critical vendors you'll probably need for your home staging services. It is included because these businesses are not only sources for cashless deals but because they are excellent
sources for you to leverage your business through and with. But if you don't have them lined up and allied to you, you won't be able to take advantage of them to build your business - and help them build their business at the same time.
- Chapter Seven gives your my closing thoughts and feelings and is a brief motivational piece. You know, when times are tough, we all need to band together to help each other. We need to break down the negative feelings of competition and see that
competition and changing times can act as a blessing in disguise. It is a message of hope and a challenge to renewed motivation.
- Chapter Eight refocuses you on some critical resources I've made available to help you in your business. I'm devoted to my readers and students and I'm not interested in steering you into training or products that you don't need. On the other hand,
I would be remiss as your mentor and teacher if I did not at least mention them so you can avail yourself of them if you choose.
There you have it. The book is 210 pages. It is a large format (full size sheets 8.5 x 11) so the reading is easy and the forms are reproducible,
especially from the PDF file you can download at your convenience.
BONUS 1 - While this book is also available at Amazon (and you're welcome to get it there) you should know that it will
not come with my monthly newsletter and it will not come with a PDF
file of my forms for quick reproducibility. Yes, there are forms in the book
which you can copy - but then you'll probably have to break the spine of your
book or cut them out - and you don't want to do that. So getting the PDF file
with the forms is the best of all worlds, I think, but you decide.
BONUS 2 - You'll also get access to my white paper on the
Secret Ingredients to a Consultant's Success which will come to you
as a free bonus for purchasing this book directly from me rather than at
Amazon. You'll also automatically receive my monthly business building
newsletter to keep you abreast of what's happening in the industry, keep
you motivated and focused and encourage you along the way.
We've also added some neat BONUSES to this product,
making it even more valuable. All pre-sale orders shall receive the bonuses as
well.
