Biography

Tiffany Murray is the driving force behind the overnight business sensation, Dressed for Sale.

As one of Australia’s leading entrepreneurs and business women, she is the creator and owner of Australia’s largest home styling business.

The pre-sale, home styling company is one of Australia’s fastest growing businesses, launching both local, national and international franchises in less than 18 months since its inception.

Following a sea change that took her from running a sheep station with her husband in South Australia’s mid north, back to her roots as a Sales and Marketing Account Director in Adelaide, with four children to care for, she took a leap of faith. Tiff launched Dressed for Sale following a stressful ordeal she encountered when selling a property in the city.

Sharing this experience made her quickly realise many people needed a life line in preparing their properties for sale. She witnessed first-hand the devastating and depressing impact of not getting this right.

Tiff saw a market opening to supply a niche service, she immediately set wheels in motion to own it. She has educated prospective sellers about her service and why it is essential to a successful real estate campaign. Her mantra…Dressed for Sale works hard to enable a faster sale and better price.

Combining her career with motherhood, the business has grown into a national success, with Tiff predicting an additional 40 franchises in the next two years. Her team of 17 staff have assisted the sale of 600+ houses and work in conjunction with 120 real estate agents around the country.

Tiffany has developed a business model that offers expert solutions in home styling for furniture, painting, flooring electrical. In the first year, her business has styled over 400 properties and achieve a sale ratio of 90 per cent within the 5 week period.

Recognition of Tiff’s business prowess is evident with her nominations as an Optus Business Award National finalist, a regional finalist for EY Entrepreneur of the year 2018 and her long list of corporate and charity speaking engagements.

Tiffany is also an MC having the ability to MC any event, from the relaxed and informal to corporate.

Excellent, we had fantastic feedback on Tiffany.  She was so accommodating to work with.  She even met us on site in the lead up to the event to record a social media video to promote the event.

Tiffany has presented a number of events for the Women's and Children's Hospital Foundation. She has a natural warmth, manner and charm that we believe has reflected terrifically with our TeamKids brand, and she has engaged our audiences at each event with both the cause and the fun of attending our shows. I would have no problem recommending Tiff to host events and launches for any client.

I have had the privilege on seeing Tiffany present on two occasions and her poise, style and confidence is totally engaging. Her knowledge is extensive and she has absolute clarity and vision on where she wants to be and when! Not only does Tiffany have 'the knowledge', but her presentation and communication skills clearly sets her apart from her competitors in her area of expertise. She delivers the benefit of her product with high energy, adding multiple point of difference along the way. I have rarely sat through presentations where I am taken on a 'journey' wanting to hear more!

Tiffany spoke at a fundraising event I held for 100 women from the property industry.  Six months afterwards I still had attendees comment to me on what an engaging speaker she was.  Tiffany has a raw honesty about her approach and appealed because of her ability to tell her story in a fast paced manner while we learnt about her resilience, determination, ability to overcome challenges and the story of building a successful business from scratch.  This was all interwoven with a good dose of humour which made us all want more!  I couldn’t recommend Tiffany highly enough as a speaker, her energy levels and positivity alone are enough to make an audience sit up and take notice.

I had seen Tiffany speaking publicly a number of times, and was always impressed by her ability to engage. Recently at a Team Kids fundraiser Tiffany was both MC of a complicated evenings agenda and conducted a heart-warming interview with a person who had no stage experience. Tiffany mastered the job enduring an engaging Saturday Black Tie evening and an uncompromised subject.
