The Keys Guild is the only organization that establishes YOU as the collectibles resource for your clients

As you’re working with clients in their homes, you’re frequently handling items that may be too valuable to donate — but how do you know for sure?

Through the education and resources inside The Keys Guild, you’ll never again wonder if your clients are donating something valuable. A Keys Guild membership is the quickest, simplest way to become the only person your clients turn to with items they no longer need.

The Keys Guild is a community of professionals bridging the gap between individuals with unwanted items in their homes & the experts who know their value — AND where to sell them.

YOU are the key to unlocking the value of your clients’ treasures.

Knowledge That Can't Be Taught!

Before The Keys Guild, I felt frustrated not knowing if my clients' items were valuable or not. I would worry that we would accidentally donate something they could make significant money from. With the knowledge I've gained from my membership, I now feel reassured that I can be a better resource for my clients. In fact, I recently helped a client identify a silver Tiffany flatware set that was worth $500 for every single setting! I also discovered that a painting another client was ready to give away was worth $900! I never would have known about either one before The Keys Guild.

The Keys Guild is right for you if:

I made $12,000 over the past year as a direct result of my Keys Guild membership - and that means my clients made even more AND got a better deal than they could have anywhere else. Breaking that down per hour, I ended up doubling the rate I make from organizing jobs. And my clients feel safe and secure because of our trusting relationship. With what I know now, joining The Keys Guild is a sure thing!

I recently joined The Keys Guild and with just one client I was able to earn more than the cost of the annual membership as well as add value to my clients. Being a Keys Guild member is a perfect link between helping clients understand the value of their items and being able to offer suggestions for selling purposes. Charles Tinsley is a knowledgeable source and his years in the industry mean he has connections in many areas that enable us to give our clients the best return on their items. I ABSOLUTELY recommend The Keys Guild.

I’m soooo happy I joined The Keys Guild for so many reasons but here are my top three! #3 I recouped the annual dues after my second client. #2 I learn new things each week either through expert tutorials or through my clients. #1 My clients L.O.V.E. that I can provide them information about their precious goods and how best to move them to new homes. My advice helps them get cash for their items or lets them know it’s ok to donate when they don’t know the value themselves. Like organizing, this new skill helps my clients find relief from the burden of their things in either a financial form or psychologically because they now know they aren’t donating something that they suspected was worth something. Win/Win!!

I joined The Keys Guild last summer and it has become an instrumental part of my business. With my very first client after joining, I recouped the cost of an annual membership for the next 9 years! I charged him a very low fee because he was my first client and I still made over $2,700. Since then, I’ve continued to make at least a few hundred with each transaction, but most importantly I feel like my clients are getting the best deal by going through me. The Keys Guild helps so much with items clients have trouble letting go of because they were passed down, might be worth something, or they just don’t know how to sell. The Keys Guild has even brought a new set of clients to my doorstep. It’s so much more than I ever expected!

FAQs

Do I need to be an expert to be a collectibles advisor?

You actually don’t! The magic of The Keys Guild is that you’ll have access to a nationwide network of collectors and experts who will become your resources. Created with busy service professionals in mind, The Keys Guild is specifically designed to connect you with the right experts so you won’t have to become an expert yourself, but simply an advisor and consultant.

Is collectibles advising hard work?

It’s actually surprisingly easy — really! No heavy lifting required. You won’t be coordinating huge estate sales or spending hours managing online sales. You’ll simply be educating your clients, tracking down information that will help them, and then coordinating transactions that will earn you both significant amounts of money.

Why should I become a member of The Keys Guild?

You’re handling the objects in your clients’ homes already — so why not make them the money it’s worth and significantly increase your revenue stream per job? The Keys Guild was created because of the natural symbiotic relationship between professionals who work with people in their homes and collectibles advising. So the real question is, why wouldn’t you become a member of The Keys Guild?

How much does it cost to join The Keys Guild?

Currently, membership is $75 per month or $450 annually (a $450 savings!). Stand out from other professionals in your area by becoming one of the Key 500 — our exclusive group of leaders joining this untapped industry. Join now before membership pricing goes up!

The year is almost over — should I wait to join The Keys Guild?

Your Keys Guild Membership renews on your anniversary each year, rather than the calendar year. Let’s say you join on December 31st — that’s okay! Your membership will then be due the following year on the same date.

How do members actually make their money?

Each member within The Keys Guild chooses to do things differently, but most commonly the member will either buy the item outright from the client for a good value OR they broker the item for the client. Some members will list & sell items for their clients or connect them with the right buyer through our vast network.
In short? It depends! But it really is easy and involves NO gimmicks or tricks. Clients are always thrilled and earn more than they could elsewhere.

Why does The Keys Guild sound too good to be true?

We believe The Keys Guild sounds too good to be true because there’s never been an organization like it before — connecting individuals with unwanted items in their homes with experts who want to buy them. With all the extra stuff people have in their homes these days, it’s easy to get overwhelmed and not know where to turn when you’re wondering if you have something valuable. The Keys Guild is the only organization providing a simple solution to a very common problem.
