Vacation Rental Design Specialist Training

June 27, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - 9:00 pm
vacation rental training

Build an extremely profitable STR Design Business with little to zero overhead. Amy Powers, Master Stager and Short-Term Rental Design Specialist will teach you everything you need to know to get started immediately as a Short-Term Rental Designer in your market.

The Short-Term Rental (STR) industry is unique for home stagers as it is a combination of real estate and hospitality. Understanding the differences and how to think like a guest is critical. STR are normally associated with vacation or business travelers; a totally different market segment than a family looking for the stability of their forever home.

The most important thing for owners of short-term rental properties are great reviews, high occupancy, and profitable nightly rates. A well-designed design plays a huge role in achieving this for the STR owner.

In 2022, there are 220 countries worldwide and 14,000 new listings per month being added to Airbnb, this growing industry is attracting investors in local communities everywhere, many without the skills to secure bookings. WHY?

Because they don’t have the time, desire or skills needed to select, procure, and place the needed items for an outstanding guest experience. They need exceptional design and alluring photos to capture guest attention.

This certification course is designed to provide all the answers needed to add this service to your existing decorating, redesign, or Home Staging business.

I have known Amy for a few years, but it was when I took her course on Short Stay (Vacation) Rentals that I really learned her value as an educator. Wow! What a fabulous learning experience! And the supporting materials are superb – I just learned so much. And when I was stuck, Amy was at the end of the dm chain and responded so quickly. This course is 5-star – highly recommended!”

Amy has been very instrumental in helping me to grow my STR Design business here in Florida. As soon as I heard she was teaching a class on short-term rentals, I immediately signed up!  I have taken a few different courses on this subject and THIS class was thorough and so informative, packed with golden nuggets and takeaways too!  I highly recommend Amy on everything STR!

I’ve been wanting to really focus on this revenue stream for my business. The STR Course really clarified a lot of information on how to work with clients, what items to purchase for the project and how to price this type of business so that we can be profitable… Thank you Amy for the valuable information. I appreciate you taking the time to put together a robust presentation that was interesting and easy to understand. Thank you also for being a great coach and approachable with any questions I may have had along the way.
