Dear wonderful ASPs,

 It is my joy and pleasure to invite all of you to attend the Home Staging Event of the year!

Do you realize how Staging is affecting the Real Estate Market on a daily basis?  Staging is truly changing the way people are buying and selling real estate!  I am so excited to see how the Home Staging Industry is changing and want to share it with all of you.  This is why I have chosen the theme for this year’s convention…

“ASP Home Staging is Changing the Real Estate Industry”
ASP Business Skills and Staging Ideas that lead the Way!

Are you looking for something to set you apart from the rest, interested in gaining more knowledge as an ASP?  Would you like to invest four days networking with other ASPs like you who are the leaders in our industry?  Is your goal for 2006 to take your business to the next level of performance and professionalism? 

 Then you can’t afford not to miss the 2006 ASP IAHSP Symposium!

We are once again raising the bar of excellence to the top…

 I have some great things in store this year.  Myself, our committees, and our staff have been working very hard to bring you the very best, because as ASPs, WE ARE THE BEST! 

We have planned some really great educational break out sessions for this year’s event.  Our Marketing team has been working hard to bring some great new vendors to the Vendor Faire with some great new products and services.  We have also added two new sessions.  Some fabulous manufacturers will represent our Make It and Take It tables.  And what I’m really excited about is a new session called “Meet the Pros”.  This is a rare opportunity to meet successful ASP Stagers and Agents who will be there to answer your questions and talk with you.  Keeping with tradition, we will finish the event with a black-tie Academy of Staging Dinner along with silent and live auctions.  

I do hope to see all of you there!
