Day in the Life of a Home Stager

Every time someone asks what we do, we almost always get follow-up questions, such as: “What do home stagers do?” and “Walk me through a day on the job!”. As home stagers, we love hearing questions such as these because we love talking about our job, quite simply! We work hard every day to ensure that our clients are ecstatic about our work, and in turn, their homes don’t last long on the market. A day in the life of a Staging Company can get quite hectic, but we always make it work with grace. With that being said, come along as I tell you about a day at Stage & Amaze. 

At the start of the day, we start with a team meeting going over the plan for that week which helps the stagers and design team fully understand the tasks that are to come. On a staging day, we arrive with one thing in mind: wowing our clients! Our lists and pillow selections are made the night before to save precious time on the day of a stage. We briefly discuss with our logistics team to make sure all aspects are accurate by going over what is to be loaded in the truck. Our logistics team will begin loading the truck with all of the essentials; furniture pieces, lamps, rugs, artwork, accessories, and most importantly: the people who make it happen. 

When arriving at the home, if the client is present, we introduce ourselves and explain to them what we will be doing in their home. If the client is not present, we get to work right away. We begin unloading the truck (yes, even Adriana) and start dropping furniture pieces off in the appropriate rooms. Our design process is very planned and thought-out, so after all, there is a method to the madness! We make sure to place eye-catching pieces in appropriate areas, essentially enticing the potential buyer to want to continue through the house. After the truck is unloaded, everyone disperses and works as a team to get things done in the most time-efficient way. We work together to wipe down the furniture, iron bedding and shower curtains, unwrap accessories and place things in the correct places. Once the pieces are placed, we begin the fun part that brings the space together; accessorizing! After we have made a full sweep in the house filling any empty spaces, we pack up our left-over accessories and load the truck back up. Before we leave, we make sure to take a video for our Instagram following and take plenty of pictures. We always make sure to let our followers know what we’re up to, and to have them call us for any home staging needs!

Back at the warehouse, our amazing logistics team will begin unloading the truck of leftover items and re-organizing the warehouse so that it’s nice and easy for the next stage. Before the end of the day, we check back in with the office and discuss the remainder of the week’s tasks. By doing so, keeps our team organized and as efficient as we can be. 

Stage & Amaze is full of hard-working individuals that would do anything to make sure the client is in love with our work. We do what we do for the satisfaction of our current clients and the potential of new clients. We are not Stage & OK, we are Stage & AMAZE, and we make sure to show it every single day.
