What is EcoJoe? The original (and only) eco-friendly home selling kit!
About six months (or more) ago I had dinner with Cindy Lin of Staged4More.com. While talking about work and other things, she shared her newest project with me. EcoJoe. I had to keep quiet about it all this time. Any guesses how easy that was?!
Cindy’s Mission:
-Change the way real estate industry uses plastic
-Reduce plastic usage
-Reduce amount of plastic being buried into landfills or your backyard!
-Promote green practices
Cindy’s Description:
The practice of burying a St. Joseph statue dates back thousands of years, when he was first called upon to help sell real estate. Today, home sellers and real estate agents continue the tradition to enlist the saint’s assistance in finding a buyer. Sadly, most of the home selling kits on the market are made of plastic and other content that are harmful to the environment. As an eco-conscious real estate home staging professional, I saw this as an opportunity to create a greener alternative. Our sourcing, production, packaging, materials and distribution support green initiatives and social responsibility.
Cindy will be bringing EcoJoe with her to the StagersLIST Expo in Dublin, California on July 15, 2009. Please register and join us at the expo, we have some great sponsors and speakers this year, it is a completely different expo from last year.
I think EcoJoe is a great idea and I'm glad I can finally spread the word about this new product. Great job Cindy Lin!

We have some really great speakers, workshops and topics this year! Check out the agenda here.
Some Reviews of our Houston Expo this month:
"I just returned from Houston where I attended the StagersList Expo. If you haven't attended one of their expos, you need to SIGN UP for the next one! The money and time spent were well worth it. The sessions were interesting, informative, and relative to your staging business. You will definitely walk away with several "ah ha" moments that you can immediately apply to growing your business. I don't want to spoil it for you, so I won't say anything specific, but you should go!" - Nancy Robertson (an AR member)
Some other Active Rain Bloggers you may recognize in this photograph are Ashley Whittenberger, Cindy Bryant, Terrylynn Fisher and Karen Otto.
"Everyone took away something, it was jammed packed with information, and the turnout was great. I got to meet so many new people in our industry. Everyone enjoyed it, and I'm looking forward to the next one." - Cindy Bryant
This year in Dublin our speakers include:
Alyx Flannery of SmartAlyx.com
Ever heard someone talk about the Internet and technology and not have a clue what they said? Alyx is not like that. He will explain his subject without making it confusing, and without making US feel like we don't know what we're doing! We believe he's a huge asset to the StagersLIST Expo series. In Dublin he will be teaching us how to us social networking, improve our SEO, and more!
Alexis Summerfield, MA, Local Feng Shui Consultant (who has been featured on HGTV's Sleep On It!)
Alexis will teach us about using the Laws of Attraction for our home staging clients, homes and work. This FREE lunch workshop is included for all attendees (Lunch is included too!).

Ashley Whittenberger, founder of The Interiority Complex
Ashley will be teaching us the importance of having multiple revenue streams for our businesses. She will help students learn how to navigate their way through the confusing and overwhelming world of custom window treatments and she'll explain how to perfectly and smoothly marry your staging and redesign services with custom window covering sales.
Christine Rae, Staging Trainer, Green Build Science Trainer, and author of Home Staging for Dummies
This year Christine will be teaching us how to us Communication Styles to overcome client objections. This presentation has been very helpful to our Expo attendees this year so far and is valuable information for any business owner.
And of course, there is more! Click here to register or read the agenda.
Some of our sponsors:
The Mirror Gallery
RESA (Real Estate Staging Association)
Bekins
The Plant Atrium
The Interiority Complex
CSP (Certified Staging Professionals)
And of course the biggest draw: Me! Haha, just kidding. Couldn't be all business, could I? (I will be there this year, though).
