    Struggling With Vacant Staging Pricing? This Is the Number You're Missing

    If you've ever posted in a Facebook group asking what other stagers are charging, first of all — no shame. We've all done it. But you probably walked away more confused than when you started, because pricing a vacant staging business is genuinely complicated and a comment section just can't hold that conversation. This is an expensive business model to run, and if the pricing isn't right, it can really hurt you. It does not matter whether you're brand new or you've been in business for years. In this episode, I'm kicking off a three-part series on pricing your vacant staging service, and I'm starting with the pillar that I know trips most of us up: overhead allocation per project. It's the piece of the pricing puzzle that took me the longest to understand, and once I did, everything started to make a lot more sense. I'll walk you through what it is, how to calculate it, and what the real numbers look like for a staging business that is built to last. Listen in! My goal is that you walk away with clarity on at least this one piece of your pricing.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: Why pricing for vacant staging is genuinely complex  and why that's not a reflection of your skill. What the three pillars of pricing are and their importance. Why you should be pricing for the business you want and not the one you have right now. How your contract term length (30, 60, or 90 days) directly impacts how much overhead each project must carry.   RESOURCES: Apply for Private Coaching: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/privatecoachingapp Enroll in Staging Business School Accelerate Track: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/accelerate Join the Staging Business School Growth Track Waitlist: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/growth Follow the Staging Business School on Instagram: www.instagram.com/stagingbusinessschool Follow Lori on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rethinkhome If you want to learn how to market and grow your staging business, enrollment is open for Rethink You Accelerate.

  2. Grounded Communication: How to Set Boundaries Without Losing Clients

    Grounded Communication: How to Set Boundaries Without Losing Clients

    Running a staging business means dealing with all kinds of client requests. Some reasonable, some feeling like they are meant to test your boundaries. "Can you install tomorrow?" "I'll give you a lot of business, so can you give me a better price?" "We don't like the art—can you come change it before photos?" If requests like these stress you out or leave you feeling devalued, you're not alone. But here's the thing: most of these aren't actually boundary violations. They're just questions from people who don't fully understand how staging works or who skimmed your 20-page client agreement. In this episode, I'm talking about how grounded communication can better help you respond to client requests from a place of emotional neutrality instead of frustration or fear. I also walk you through the four key components of communicating your policies effectively, plus share a FREE plug-and-chug communication template that you can use right in your own business!   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: The three critical components of grounded communication  How to separate your personal identity from your business identity so client requests don't feel like personal attacks Why deciding your communication plans ahead of time keeps you out of emotional reactivity When to create exceptions to your policies using client filters and when to hold firm   RESOURCES: Apply for Private Coaching: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/privatecoachingapp Enroll in Staging Business School Accelerate Track: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/accelerate Join the Staging Business School Growth Track Waitlist: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/growth Follow the Staging Business School on Instagram: www.instagram.com/stagingbusinessschool Follow Lori on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rethinkhome Download your copy of the Communication Plan Template  If you want to learn how to market and grow your staging business, enrollment is open for Rethink You Accelerate.

  3. Why Successful CEOs Invest In Coaching For Access, Not Information

    Why Successful CEOs Invest In Coaching For Access, Not Information

    Over the past couple of weeks, I've been sharing some things in my business that were genuinely challenging. The systems that stretched me, the decisions that felt uncomfortable, the seasons that required me to shift my thinking. I've talked about what was hard and the mindset shifts that came from it. But what I realized I haven't really talked about is how I got to those mindset shifts in the first place. The truth is, those shifts didn't come from thinking harder or powering through or honestly even journaling. They came from my decision to invest in my own education and business coaching. More specifically, from a mindset shift I had to make about what coaching is actually for. When I first stepped into the world of business coaching, I thought I was going to get all the answers. I thought they would tell me exactly what to do, what the right next move was, what the perfect strategy was. And while that happened, it didn't happen the way I expected. I had to recalibrate my thinking because what coaching did best wasn't hand me answers—it was to help me make better decisions for my business and give me access. And why are both crucial for growth as a staging business owner? This episode unpacks that.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: Why free resources expand awareness but don't always sharpen decisions How high-level CEOs measure ROI on coaching investments Why access to higher-level thinking matters more than having all the answers How to extract gold from any coaching container, even if you miss every call   RESOURCES:   Apply for Private Coaching: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/privatecoachingapp Enroll in Staging Business School Accelerate Track: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/accelerate Join the Staging Business School Growth Track Waitlist: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/growth Follow the Staging Business School on Instagram: www.instagram.com/stagingbusinessschool Follow Lori on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rethinkhome   If you want to learn how to streamline your operations so you can grow with less stress and burnout in your staging business, enrollment is open for Staging Business School Accelerate Track.

  4. The Day I Realized Growth Would Cost Me Comfort, Clients, and Control

    The Day I Realized Growth Would Cost Me Comfort, Clients, and Control

    There's a business season that doesn't get talked about enough; the one where growth stops feeling exciting and starts feeling heavy. It's a different phase from when you are the only person and you are tired from being overwhelmed. Here, you're no longer doing everything yourself. What you have running are systems, training, and leadership, but these feel harder than any work you have ever done. This episode is grounded in what that season looked like inside my own business, because it's a phase so many owners experience but rarely name out loud. I walk through what was really happening for me during that stretch; the mental exhaustion of training and delegation, my nervous system constantly on edge, and what understanding the neuroscience behind growth helped me finally see. I also share a turning-point conversation with a long-time client that forced me to choose: keep being the value in my business, or start building it into the business itself.   If you're building a team, feeling the weight of growth, or questioning why this phase feels so uncomfortable, I hope this episode helps you make sense that this season isn't a mistake.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: Why growth often feels worse before it feels better Why training is harder than just doing the work yourself The difference between clients who want outcomes and clients who want access How to advocate for your team instead of rescuing situations   RESOURCES:   Apply for Private Coaching: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/privatecoachingapp Enroll in Staging Business School Accelerate Track: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/accelerate Join the Staging Business School Growth Track Waitlist: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/growth Follow the Staging Business School on Instagram: www.instagram.com/stagingbusinessschool Follow Lori on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rethinkhome If you want to learn how to streamline your operations so you can grow with less stress and burnout in your staging business, enrollment is open for Staging Business School Accelerate Track.

    The Business of Luxury: How Strategy Shapes Successful Staging With Heather Russo

    Heather Russo is building a luxury staging business in the Boston area. And her path here? Eighteen years in insurance first. I know, right. She is like most of us out there who didn't set out to build a staging business. Today, Heather and I talk about what it really looks like to grow a staging business intentionally. From learning how to manage seasonality and capacity, to making decisions that allow the business to support long-term goals instead of constant burnout. We talk about the moment success starts to stretch you, why hiring often has to happen before you feel ready, and the shift from doing all the things to teaching, documenting, and letting go of control. Heather also shares what changed when she brought on support and later welcomed her husband, Tony, into the business to help with operations and growth. If you're in a season of growth and figuring out what needs to change so the business can keep up, you'll hear yourself in this one.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: Why the term "hobby business" is damaging to women in this industry and needs to retire How to price your services when you're not making money 12 months out of the year The signs you've hit capacity and actually need help What it's really like bringing your spouse into the business as a partner   RESOURCES:   Apply for Private Coaching: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/privatecoachingapp Enroll in Staging Business School Accelerate Track: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/accelerate Join the Staging Business School Growth Track Waitlist: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/growth Follow the Staging Business School on Instagram: www.instagram.com/stagingbusinessschool Follow Lori on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rethinkhome Rethink Home Interiors: rethinkhomeinteriors.com/ Glen Street Staging on Instagram: www.instagram.com/glenstreetstaging Glen Street Staging: glenstreetstaging.com   If you want to learn how to streamline your operations so you can grow with less stress and burnout in your staging business, enrollment is open for Staging Business School Accelerate Track.

    The Hidden Complexity Behind "Simple" Workflows in Staging Businesses

    We love to say we want things to be simple. Simple workflows. Simple systems. Simple days. But if you've ever felt exhausted by something that looks straightforward on paper, please come closer. On Staging Sips today, I am pulling back the curtain on why "simple" workflows in a staging business often feel anything but simple. Also, why that doesn't mean you're doing something wrong. Rather, it means you're running a real business with real moving parts. This episode isn't about adding more software or forcing yourself into tighter systems. It's about understanding the invisible complexity behind your day-to-day operations so you can stop carrying unnecessary frustration and start making clearer, calmer decisions as the CEO of your Staging Business. If you've been telling yourself, "This shouldn't feel this hard," I've got you today.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: Why workflows that look simple often carry hidden layers of decision-making and emotional labor How complexity quietly builds as your staging business grows, even when your services stay the same The difference between a workflow problem and a capacity problem Why forcing simplicity too early can actually slow you down     RESOURCES:   Apply for Private Coaching: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/privatecoachingapp Enroll in Staging Business School Accelerate Track: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/accelerate Join the Staging Business School Growth Track Waitlist: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/growth Follow the Staging Business School on Instagram: www.instagram.com/stagingbusinessschool Follow Lori on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rethinkhome If you want to learn how to streamline your operations so you can grow with less stress and burnout in your staging business, enrollment is open for Staging Business School Accelerate Track.

  8. Start Your New Year Like a CEO: The Ritual That Changes Everything

    Start Your New Year Like a CEO: The Ritual That Changes Everything

    Today's episode is intentionally gentle.  We would rather end the year not forcing goals, not creating pressure, and not deciding who you are supposed to become when the calendar turns. Instead, this is a guided CEO year beginning ritual meant to help you step into the year ahead feeling steady, supported, and clear in your role as a staging business owner. Why? Because the truth is constant "A new year does not make a new you, your capacity does." To round up the year, let's  take an honest look at what you are carrying into the new year and what no longer needs to come with you. I am talking about the kind of CEO you want to lead as, how you want to make decisions, and what support actually needs to be in place for your staging business to grow without asking you to overextend yourself. Best believe a new year might not require you becoming someone new. It could just be about setting yourself up to lead the year at a pace you can sustain.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: Why capacity is what actually shapes the year ahead What you're ready to release so you don't carry last year's weight forward How to intentionally choose the CEO identity you're leading from Gentle January anchors that stabilize you for your Staging Business leadership    RESOURCES:   Apply for Private Coaching: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/privatecoachingapp Enroll in Staging Business School Accelerate Track: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/accelerate Join the Staging Business School Growth Track Waitlist: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/growth Follow the Staging Business School on Instagram: www.instagram.com/stagingbusinessschool Follow Lori on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rethinkhome If you want to learn how to streamline your operations so you can grow with less stress and burnout in your staging business, enrollment is open for Staging Business School Accelerate Track.
