Self Storage Tip - πŸ’‘ πŸ’° πŸ€‘

Cory take a bow sir! 🀩

This is so simple but so true!

The only thing I would add is this will only apply to the big boys …

You know for certain they have a revenue management system in place …

So if the price is high they have little or no room available πŸ€”

Smaller independents are likely to have less of a rev management system in place.

We do exactly the same …

The more units we have available the cheaper the price and visa versa

High rates = No occupancy ❌

Low Rates = Occupancy βœ…

Happy mystery shopping
