Struggling With Vacant Staging Pricing? This is the Number You’re Missing

The overlooked number that can make or break your vacant staging pricing.

If you've ever posted in a Facebook group asking what other stagers are charging, first of all, no shame. We've all done it. But you probably walked away more confused than when you started, because pricing a vacant staging business is genuinely complicated, and a comment section can't hold that conversation. This is an expensive business model to run, and if the pricing isn't right, it can really hurt you. It does not matter whether you're brand new or you've been in business for years.

In this episode, I'm kicking off a three-part series on pricing your vacant staging service, and I'm starting with the pillar that I know trips most of us up: overhead allocation per project. It's the piece of the pricing puzzle that took me the longest to understand, and once I did, everything started to make a lot more sense. I'll walk you through what it is, how to calculate it, and what the real numbers look like for a business that is built to last.

Listen in! My goal is that you walk away with clarity on at least this one piece of your pricing.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE:

• Why pricing for vacant staging is genuinely complex and why that's not a reflection of your skill.
• What the three pillars of pricing are and their importance.
• Why you should be pricing for the business you want and not the one you have right now.
• How your contract term length (30, 60, or 90 days) directly impacts how much overhead each project must carry.
