Been a very interesting week, the quotes have been good, the revenue has been good but the move ins and conversions have been poor

I review a book called Double Double. The book is well worth a read and I also mention a self storage master mind that I have been invited to ... Exciting times ahead

Have a blooming awesome Christmas

Another week has past, how was your week in storage?

We had some great KPIs and some not so great KPIs ... Our quotes were fantastic, the revenue was excellent but the move ins were poor meaning we were in a negative position with the Sq Ft

Have a super duper week

Dean

Ok this is a long one ... I apologise now :-)

I dive deep in to some of the metrics that I believe really matter in storage and also rant about the importance of keeping your expenses lean and mean
