  • Self Storage Call Centers
    By admin on August 6, 2010 | No Comments  Comments

    Are you looking to improve your numbers at a self storage call center?  Are you sick and tired of not making the sales that you know you should be making?  Are you looking for a little bit of advice when it comes to keeping your stats higher than the rest of your coworkers?  If so, then you have certainly arrived at the right article.  If you pay attention to the advice contained herein, then you are going to see your sales figures improving before you even know it.  Improvement is just around the corner, and you are now officially taking the first step towards it.

    The first thing that you are going to have to work on, here, is your approach.  If you find that you are blaming the product for your lack of sales, then you need to drastically rethink your approach.  Perhaps you are coming on too strong?  Perhaps you are freaking out your callers by giving them too much information too quickly?  Maybe you are coming across as shallow, or as only wanting to make the sale.  If you find that you are making any of these mistakes, then you are going to have to work on being a bit more genuine when you are dealing with your customers.  You are going to have to be sure that you are approaching them with a smile, and that they can tell that you are not simply after their money.  If you can step in and convince them that you have the solution to their problem, then they are going to be much more willing to trust you and work with you.

    Now, I have said this before, and I am going to say it again.  When your caller begins to talk to you, he or she should be able to tell that you are smiling.  From the very start of the conversation, they should not have a question as to whether or not you want to be on the phone with them.  They should know that you are ready and willing to devote your undivided attention to working with them, and that you are not going to stop until you have found a solution to their problem.  When a customer can sense that you are this devoted to helping them, they are going to be much more willing to flip out the old wallet and send a credit card in your direction.  First, of course, you have to prove to them that you really do care about their situation.

    Finally, reader, you are going to have to work on the order in which you surrender your information.  If you are not in control of the phone call from the very start, then you know that you are already in trouble.  Be assertive the whole way through, and do it in such a way that you do not offend your caller.  If they are pulling you away from your script, come up with polite little reasons to return to the order that you prefer.  Before you know it, you are going to have the conversation back on track.

    As you can see, reader, there is not much to seeing the improvements that you want to see.  So long as you keep this advice in mind, you are going to be able to drastically improve your sales figures in hardly any time at all.

  • Shopping The Self Storage Industry
    By admin on May 21, 2010 | No Comments  Comments

    Shopping around for a self storage unit can be tough.  I mean, if you do not have any experience with the industry, then you may very well find that there are simply too many options for you to wrap your head around.  Of course, if you are ready and willing to do a little bit of research, then you are going to be able to make sense of your local options.  In fact, you are going to be able to rent a unit that is absolutely perfect for your needs.  Just pay close attention to this article as you are reading it, and you are going to turn out just fine.

    First and foremost, reader, you are going to have to pick a location that is not going to be a huge pain in the rump at the end of the day.  This, of course, means that you are going to want to pick a location that is not going to take all that long to drive to.  Typically speaking, your best options are going to be within ten miles of your home.  If you rent anything that’s farther away, then you are going to live to regret it.  You are going to waste ton of your time commuting, and you are going to waste tons of your money paying for the gas that you are wasting.  Truly, you do not want to rent a self storage unit from a distant facility even if it is going to save you a ton of money.  It just is not worth it at the end of the day.

    Second of all, you are going to want to be sure that you are picking a unit that is nice and dry.  When you store your belongings, you want to know that they are going to be safe.  There is nothing that is going to keep you up at night that is quite like a leaky, dangerous self storage unit.  Thus, be sure that you are touring your local sites in person, and that you are inspecting your local units for signs of water damage.  If you detect any signs of water damage, then you are going to want to be sure that you do not agree to rent that unit.

    Finally, reader, you are always going to want to be sure that you are paying careful attention to the discounts that you find.  The last thing that you are going to want, here, is to rent a unit that is not going to save you a little bit of time and trouble.  If you can, you are going to want to rent a unit that comes with a moving truck as a special.  All the better if you can find a self storage unit that also comes with a moving service as a moving special.  The more services you can pack into one giant package, the better you are going to feel about your moving situation at the end of the day.

    Basically, reader, you want to be sure that you are renting a unit that makes your life easier.  When you rent units that are complicated and time consuming, you know that you are in for an awful moving day.  Just keep it simple, and be sure that all of your needs are being met.
