"WHAT ARE YOU?"

Today Kimberly Wong a Realtor at @Properties here in Chicago asked me, "What are you?"

Knowing the 2 things I specialize in, I think she wanted/expected me to choose between being an Interior Designer (which I am) and a Home Stager.

But I had to just smile... and look at her with a big grin and answer... "MARKETER!" Why did I answer this way? Because THAT is what I have done ALL of my life.

While I went back to study interior design at age 38, the eternal marketer has in me has adapted my design talents into a tool to help sell real estate.

So I have found the perfect blend... doing what I know innately (marketing) and doing what I love implicitly (design). People refer to it as a gift... I just say it's "me."

THAT is why I welcome questions, comments and concerns about staging and marketing from anyone regardless of where you are in the nation...

I love what I do, I know it works and I want you to know it can help you too.
