If you've been circling the self-storage world, consuming content, running numbers, and still haven't pulled the trigger—this episode is for you. In today's message, I break down the exact four-step framework that's helping new investors get off the sidelines and finally close their first storage facility in six months or less.

We're talking about what's really keeping you stuck—deal fog, fear of funding, and analysis paralysis—and how to overcome them with a clear, repeatable roadmap. I share examples from coaching clients who went from frozen in fear to fully funded and cash-flowing.
