Self-Storage Taps the Net
Selfstoragedeals.com launched a program to charge self-storage facilities a discounted fee for leads, and a flat “Pay Per Move In” rate when the lead results in an actual client. “Some self storage facilities were concerned about buying leads without testing the quality first,” said Colin O’Brien Lead Salesman for Selfstoragedeals.com. “So to soften the blow, we are now offering them the option to pay heavily discounted rates for leads, and then a flat fee when a lead results in a move in.”
Leveraging the Internet is the right way for the self-storage industry to go. I’m not sure why we don’t see more of it. This is clearly the future and those who become familiar with the ways of the Net today will be positioned for today and the future. I am not specifically endorsing this site as I have not used it, but many people have and it’s worth checking into.
The website creates sales leads by allowing potential customers to log on and fill out a self storage quote request form. In this form customers specify the needed self storage unit size and the storage start date. Once the potential customer has entered their contact and location information, the website instantly forwards the lead to the storage facility that services the zip code specified.
