COLLECTIVE MEETING + ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP
Learn how to transform your business in this intense 3-day meeting and 12-month membership in The Staging Collective
The Staging Collective is actively seeking home stagers who embody excellence in their work and are dedicated to taking their business to the next level. To ensure an environment conducive for open discussions on strategy, pricing, and area-specific topics, we limit membership to ONE company per staging area. A company may, however, send multiple attendees to the event, space permitting.
While experience level is considered an important factor in the acceptance process, the number of years in business does not guarantee or hinder a company from joining The Staging Collective.
