Christine Rae, Founder and CEO of Certified Staging Professional International Business Training Academy, an educational program for home staging consultants, explains that her staging certification academy has positioned itself as top quality, rather than cheapest deal.
St. Catharines, Ontario – September 27, 2011 – Home Staging expert, Christine Rae, Founder and CEO of Certified Staging Professional International Business Training Academy, recently published an article on her website www.stagingtraining.com that argues against the philosophy behind her staging education competitors bargain business models. The article, titled “Have You Become a Best-Price Consumer” asserts that the power of the face-to-face training experience and hands-on exposure to staging principles offers students the best staging certification education possible.
Rae writes, “Most everyone will have you believe that today’s consumers are looking for the cheapest price, in their search for securing the best bang for the buck. As many parts of the World are still struggling through an economic recession, budgets are squeezed tight and when many low price option stores are flourishing it seems rational to believe.
I would argue that value vs. price still has a place in this market and is one of the keys to economic recovery.”
“At CSP Internationl, we pride ourselves on the quality of our products and services. Over the last six years we have focused our marketing strategy on differentiation, and superior product/delivery – not on positioning ourselves at the lowest price. Although other staging training competitors battle for cost leadership, we stand firmly behind our position of upholding our training standards and growing the industry with quality educated professionals. We are successful because we know what we offer provides a higher return for the staging professionals’ investments,” reports Ms. Rae.
Certified Staging Professional trains home stagers through a comprehensive course of study that includes 3 days in a classroom, 4 weeks of home study and 6 weeks of hands-on market coaching. CSP is also a resource for Realtors and home sellers to find and hire graduates of this highly accredited staging education program, for assisting them in successfully closing their real estate sale.
