Welcome to episode #90 of Home Stagers and Designers on Fire. In this episode I interview Jennifer Mello, Massachusetts and Rhode Island Real Estate Broker and owner of the Mello Group. Jenn has been a well respected, top performing agent since 2005.

In this episode, Jennifer shares insights on how Home Stagers can win the business of Real Estate Agents and Broker/Owners.


In this episode you will learn:

What Jennifer would say to Broker/Owners when reaching out to them by phone (and why Broker/ Owners are key)

Clear ways that you can add value to Real Estate Agents that go beyond the typical “quotes”

Why Real Estate Agents need you to be specific and obvious about all the services you provide

The #1 thing to do before you make a sales (service) call

How to use Social Media to gain attention from select Agents or Brokers

How Agents may decide to pay for staging, or not

Why follow up and consistency is so important, especially with Real Estate Agents and when to stop following up
