Vacation From Vacation

What does a call center rep for self storage do on vacation? Recently I spent a wonderful week visiting my childhood home in Blue eye Missouri, just south of Branson, there were wonderful accommodations at Big Cedar Lodge and flea markets galore to explore. I had decided to leave my laptop at home and refused to turn on my cell phone except once per day to check for important messages from my family. I wanted to refuse to think about work and storage facilities and units and prices etc. I would have made it too but there are just so darn many of them. It seemed that there was a storage facility around every curve (there are LOTS of curves in the Ozarks) and many, many small farmsteads had at least one small row of units. Some of the operations are quite large.

There was a time that a small farm could make a very good profit if you planted strawberries, asparagus, or other produce to sell. Now, the rapidly expanding storage business allows many people with small roadside properties to become entrepreneurs.

The best thing about building a storage facility on the family farm is that you do not have an extra investment in land and you do not have to pull weeds or spread fertilizer and if you build a fence it is to keep people out instead of hogs, goats or cows. The downside could be that it would be like owning a milk cow. Milk cows need attention twice a day and it is hard to get away without losing milk production. Owning your own storage facility could keep you tied to the phone .

I could not resist the opportunity to stop in and meet with the owners. Of course, I was interested in what people usually store and how they sold their stores. Some of them were eager to greet me and to show me what they could do, others, quite frankly could benefit from the sales techniques and training we have here. The more of these stops that I made, the prouder I became of the services that we offer. We do turn missed calls into profit and we offer top- notch quality control through our secret shopping and evaluations program.
