Becoming a Certified Home Stager will open up many new doors and opportunities to an exciting new career. Just imagine running your own business in which you’ll have full creative rein.

Can you picture it? How does it feel? What does it look like?

I receive numerous emails and phone calls from working professionals who are ready to make a career move. They are tired of working in a corporate environment and want something better. Others are bored in their current job and need an exciting, creative outlet. Still others are just looking to get back in the work environment on a part-time basis doing what they love.

What others are saying about the
Home Stagers Guild Program

Melanie Serra is the perfect person to conduct this training seminar. She exhibits the rate combination of skilled business woman and sensitive humanitarian. Melanie is extremely talented and completely unselfish as she shares her expertise in staging and redesign with the participants. She’s patient with those students that have little or no experience, and she’s open to ideas from those students that have already dabbed in the field. Regardless of skill levels, Melanie is able to instill confidence in all graduates as they go on to pursue their own careers. The was fun and worthwhile!!
-Jeanie Moore
It's so difficult to put in just a few words my experience with Melanie Serra's Home Staging Course. Melanie is one of the most down to earth and friendly people I've ever met. I knew I liked her over the phone right away. However, after working and training with Melanie, I learned what a professional, talented and intelligent individual she is. I gained a great deal of knowledge from Melanie; she instilled the confidence I didn't have before. Now I feel I can move the world with those "sliders" and make it even more beautiful than ever. I HIGHLY recommend this class, not only is it informative, it's fun!!!
Melissa Elliott Carter – Springfield, TN
I learned so much from Melanie’s home staging course! I feel like I am now ready to start my own business after the training we received from the class. We covered everything from marketing to pricing to interior design principles. The “hands on” field experiences were invaluable! Melanie is a very down to earth and approachable instructor and mentor. She willingly shares her experiences and knowledge of the home staging and decorating fields. Melanie’s class was well worth the money!
Linda Thomas – Dunwoody, GA
People have asked me if I thought The Home Stager’s Guild was worthwhile and if I felt as though I got my money’s worth. I told them that I learned so much and that I wasn’t bored for a moment! As someone who has attended and delivered thousands of training programs and conference sessions, I feel that the knowledge I gained speaks volumes. Thanks for a great class!
Debra Hutchins – Schenectady, NY
Absolutely Fabulous!!! I just can't say enough! Taking the 4-day training in staging and interior redesign from Melanie gave me the knowledge and confidence to immediately start my own business. Melanie's training program has provided me with everything that I needed to turn my dream into a reality!!! Melanie has been available to answer all of my questions following training, from promoting and marketing my business to actual home staging and interior redesign. Her encouragement and advice have been priceless. I am very proud to have attended Melanie's Home Staging program and become a member of the Home Stager's Guild. I hope you have the same wonderful opportunity. It has changed my life.

WOW!... what more can I say? Taking Melanie’ course was wonderful. She is so sweet, patient, intelligent and giving. She is as good with her students as she is with her clients, which I got to witness first hand at the field houses that we staged in her class. I learned way more than I ever expected, and feel that when I open my own business I came away with everything that I need and much more. Melanie has her own unique style that works, and a very creative edge. I would strongly advise anyone wanting to get into the home staging field to take Melanie’s certified training course and become a member of “The Home Stager’s Guild”. I learned so much from her as a business woman, a teacher and a mentor.

Melanie, Many thanks for getting me started on my new career path. It was an exciting 4 days! I really enjoyed meeting you and working along side you. I am so excited to be member of the Home Stagers Guild and am looking forward to participating in the future HSG membership meetings and the charity event. I feel blessed to have met you. You’re a wonderful person. Many thanks,
-Patrick Carmen
This seminar was “more” than I expected! Par excellent! The ideas, concepts and program content in this training were invaluable! Can you put a price on preparedness? I walked in with some reservations about what I would learn, and walked out a confident woman, fully prepared to embrace a new direction in my life. The field houses and the interactive exercises all presented unique challenges and were true representations of what one can expect in operating their own business. “Thank you.” I can’t begin to express my gratitude.

Why train with Melanie Serra

Melanie SerraOver the past 15 years Melanie Serra was often approached about training and mentoring others. After all, there were many other stagers and redesigners jumping at the opportunity to teach…why wasn’t she?  For Melanie it was simple….it was about timing and about integrity. Before she would call herself an instructor or consider mentoring others, it was imperative that she experienced ALL aspects of running a successful home staging business. In order to teach, she understood that she had to take her business full circle from the early stages of start up, to learning how to market and grow her business, to establishing systems to avoid the “crash and burn” when business peaks. Today, the combination of hard work, commitment and drive is her proven track record to success.  As an instructor and mentor, her goal is to help each student realize their full potential and help them succeed in their business.
