I recently wrote the article Online Publicity: A Key Benefit with Your ASP® here at the Stagedhomes.com blog, sharing with you how the ASP® Designation gives you invaluable exposure online. I was so excited to hear back from Amy Bly, ASP® with Great Impressions Home Staging, LLC, who shared the following: Just wanted to let you know I got my second and third staging jobs through my ASP® Directory listing — both within the last 6 weeks or so! I thought I’d take this opportunity to share with you how important it is to have a properly filled out profile at the Stagedhomes.com directory. Those who subscribe to and read the Stagedhomes.com blog, those who have become fans of our Facebook page, and those follow our updates at Twitter.com have probably noticed the extensive media coverage we continually receive. Each time we’re mentioned in the news, consumers who read articles and hear about us on television come to Stagedhomes.com to find additional information about Home Staging. While there, they also search for a local Accredited Staging Professional® to assist them. Additionally, local real estate agents, brokers, and other industry professionals visit Stagedhomes.com to find an ASP® who can Stage the homes they represent.
