Envision Eco Solutions and Earth Savers Institute Team Up to Help Train Green Staging Professionals
Partnership create training program to educate designers on green home staging techniques and strategies to identify and create green features in homes that are for sale.
ESTERO, FL, April 28, 2010 /Employment - Careers PR News/ -- The Earth Savers Institute (ESI) and Envision Eco Solutions announced today that they have formed a long-term agreement to offer The Green Staging Professional training program to Designers, Eco Entrepreneurs, Green Realtors, Real Estate Investors, and Homeowners.
Green Staging has the potential to give homeowners the marketing appeal they need in today's challenging real estate market. Green staging is the process of identifying and creating green features in homes that appeal to homebuyers who want to save money, reduce their carbon footprint, and desire a healthier home to live in. The idea has recently gained traction in the real estate market. Homebuyers are becoming increasingly attracted to the features that green homes offer. As a result of this demand, home stagers are now incorporating sustainable principles into their staging work.
"Our students can learn the entire process of becoming a Green Staging Professional today with this new course," said Frank Buday, CEO of Envision Eco Solutions. "Students will learn which home features will reduce energy and water consumption and how that translates into economic benefits for the homeowner. They will learn about materials and products in a home that may be polluting indoor air and which alternative materials and products to use that are healthier."
Jam-Packed Course
Examples and pictures of sustainable decorating ideas prepare students to adopt a new mindset when staging. The course offers ideas for alternative products and materials that can be used for decorating that are environmentally friendly. Students will learn why these products and materials are better for the home and the environment. The Instructor explains how green homes are marketed and why green features in a home will differentiate it from other homes on the market. Also included is where to find information on tax incentives and rebates for specific product purchases.
"We were planning on offering a Green Staging Program in Fall 2010, but then we became friendly with Frank and determined that his course was just what we were hoping to create, so we teamed up to be able to make a bigger impact in this industry," said Scott Cardinal, Founder of the Earth Savers Institute. "This fabulous course give students everything they need so they can launch their Green Staging Business within days of completing this program. To further entice students, the Earth Savers Institute has packaged this course with a few valuable bonuses, including an eBook and a FREE Membership to their monthly Bright Green People program."
A Green Staging Professional will help make a home appealing to homebuyers without the need for expensive remodeling. They will also educate the homeowner about improvements that often result in a direct return on investment at sale and how to effectively communicate the value of green features to buyers.
An expertly green staged home has features that reduce energy and water consumption, improve the indoor air quality, reduce the home's carbon footprint, and inhibit a natural, eco-friendly look and feel in accordance with sustainable principles. Many of the green features that Green Staging Professionals advise homeowners to create will result in cost savings for the new homeowner without the need for reduced comfort. A Green Staging Professionals also practices sound recycling and waste reduction methods and the furniture and staging props they use were chosen with sustainable principles in mind.
"The Earth Savers Institute is currently the largest green virtual company of its kind, but quality means more to us than anything," said Cardinal. "That is why we are working with Frank Buday. In addition to being a LEED Green Associate, Green Staging Professional , and Green Business Strategist, he is an authentic, honest, and passionate individual. It is a pleasure to have him aboard the Earth Savers Institute."
The Benefits of the Green Staging Professional Training Program
Students get everything they need to become a Green Staging Professional. This program is based on Frank Buday's actual experience in the field over the last 5 years. In addition to learning about green decorating, ideas for advertising a new green staging service will also be discussed. The course closes with a chapter on eco-friendly lifestyle changes that can be given to homeowners so they may prepare for a new eco-friendly lifestyle in their new home.
There is compelling research that shows home staging will often result in a higher sales price and faster sale of the home. Green staging now offers the opportunity to create additional value for the homeowner and strengthen the home's marketing appeal in a challenging real estate market.
Online Training Is Eco Friendly
The Earth Savers Institute offers its services Online, which is very appealing to individuals, entrepreneurs, and businesses everywhere; particularly those outside of major cities or where there are no Instructors offering "green collar" courses and training.
"It will be a long while before local colleges and universities offer these types of courses," said Cardinal. "Until that day, interested individuals should consider going the virtual route. The Earth Savers Institute is at the forefront of this trend by working with clients throughout the U.S.A., Canada, Europe, and most recently South Africa, China, and Australia."
