Good morning, Store Nation.

Thank you for tuning in to the Hacking Self Storage podcast.

Im your host, Dean Booty.

Today, we're talking about one of the biggest challenges in growing a self storage business: cashflow.

I share why cash flow continues to be my biggest nemesis, the realities of expanding without outside investors, and some of the lessons I've learned while building multiple self storage sites.

I also discuss why growth creates its own challenges, and why self storage can still be an incredible business despite the bumps along the way.

Hope you enjoy this episode.
