Interior Redesign & Home Staging ~ Traveling Trainer Program!

Professional training for the arts of Interior Redesign and Home Staging has hit the road! With as few as three students you may host a training workshop in your town saving you hundreds of dollars in traveling and hotel expenses!

The decorating fields of Interior Redesign and Home staging are fast gaining recognition as credible and lucrative business choices! The All About Redesign Decorating Center has noticed an increased demand for training from all over the Nation. With this in mind, they have decided to provide yet another hands-on training opportunity. With the announcement of the Traveling Trainer Program they immediately had requests to hit the road! By providing students the option of training in their own towns, the AARC has enabled many aspiring decorating professionals the chance to learn their program… Without the additional travel expense of flying to their location in the Twin Cities, Minnesota.

“Now is the perfect time to become involved in these creative decorating arts and start your own business.” Says Julie Rieman, the founder of All About Walls and the Redesign Center. “The exciting fields of Interior Redesign and Home Staging are sweeping the Nation. The demand for Interior Redesign and Home Staging professionals is fast increasing as many busy homeowners are seeking affordable decorating solutions. Most projects can be completed in one afternoon... For less than the cost of replacing a sofa!” She goes on to state “It is my passion to assist other people in changing and improving their lives. Having been a single mother, I know how difficult it can be to sometimes even pay the bills. I have created an affordable and professional training program that does just that. Now that my children are raised I can travel more easily than many of my students so I thought, why not?”

The All About Redesign Center currently has training classes scheduled for St. Louis, Missouri – October, 2006 and Lake Havusu City, Arizona – January, 2007. Workshops require a minimum of three students with a maximum of six for optimal hands-on learning.

Interior Redesign & Home Staging ~ The Smart Business Choice

Have you have been considering Interior Redesign or Home Staging as a new career path or a business venture? There are several different facts you should discover when selecting a training course. You will want to invest your money wisely and choose the redesign training that best suits your needs, lifestyle and budget.
Since the alternative field of Interior Redesign is fast growing and projected to gain in recognition now is the time to get started! With the popularity of budget conscience interior decorating programs, redesign professionals are in demand.
Many training centers are beginning to pop up all over the Nation as this affordable decorating field is beginning to take off! Following are some important questions you should ask of each potential trainer. By following this simple guideline, you can be certain you are getting the best experience possible.
1. Ask the trainer what their credentials and experience are in the field.

2. Find out exactly what is involved during the training. Will you be involved with hand-on training and if so how many rooms?

3. If the training includes a manual, ask how many pages and what the font size is. Anything more than 12 pt. is usually not necessary.

4. Where will you be trained? Is it an actual classroom setting or held inside the instructor's home.

5. Will you have actual client contact? This is extremely important if you have never dealt with a client of your own.

6. What tools and or marketing materials are included with the training? Important to consider when estimating your start-up costs.

7. Will you receive a certificate of completion or is some type of certification offered? Find out if this is included in the training or an additional charge.

8. How accessible will the trainer be upon completion of the program. Will you be able to contact him/her with questions that may arise!

9. What will you gain by their affiliation? Important to discover if there are any annual fees or dues going forward.

10. Will you be listed on the website you most likely found the training at? If so, request all cost's involved.

A reputable instructor will gladly offer you all this information before you agree to anything. Be very skeptical of someone that you do not feel is being completely up-front and honest with you.
Finally, I recommend contacting at least one previous student to get a referral for the training program.
