Melanie teaches her exclusive method in Defining Target Markets. You may have a great knack for pulling a room together, but… do you really know how to capture a potential buyer? Staging is more than just furnishing placement. Melanie will teach you how to define each target market, tap into their desires and needs, and implement that knowledge to create a space that will capture each perspective audience. Melanie’s experience has enabled her to fine tune this science into an art. No other instructor teaches this unique method.
