How to Find, Hire, and Train an Amazing Self Storage Manager

In businesses the most important thing is the people who run the business. If you are a fortunate business owner then I would suspect you are not doing the day-to-day tasks and delegating those to others who can likely, if trained properly, do the tasks better. Doing so frees up your time for family, friends, or fun.When I bought my first property, I needed to learn how to run the business so I could teach my manager the correct way to do things. It is always good to teach your managers how to do tasks like you would do them. When you are not around your employee will act as an extension of yourself and not as an employee. Before you buy your first business or storage facility, I would recommend reading up on the management of these properties. Even if you do not want to run them yourself and want to hand it over to a management company, you must have the experience to teach someone else to run it or this could be a loss for your company.The key is to train your manager to think like you do. We can go into that in our next lesson but first you have to find a manager. Without someone who is able and willing to manage your property, your business will suffer. Whenever I am about to purchase a business, I always look at the current employee situation. Are there current employees capable of finishing the tasks I want them to do? Are they currently not performing up to my standards? If the answer to the second question is no then you need to ask yourself, why they are not meeting your standards. Were they not properly trained? Are they not getting the correct support from the owners or are they just lazy and do not like the field they are in?I specialize in buying underperforming properties being poorly managed. In some cases it is the owner’s fault who is not giving the manager what he or she needs to be successful and sometimes it is purely the manager’s fault. I like to look for combinations that have both then here you find the upside. I have found tremendous upside in properties from them simply being poorly managed.I have found a few notable items that are necessary with managers of my business. They must be hard workers. Lazy people get nowhere in life and accomplish only the bare minimum to survive. If they are not a hard worker with motivation, then they need to be replaced. Motivation is the key to a successful manager because if they are not motivated in his or her life, he or she will not be motivated at work. They must strive for something in their lives that they want and usually their work helps them get there. If they have motivation in life to become better, most likely they will have motivation to be successful at their job.The third thing that I look for is someone who is willing to learn. In all my properties we do a large amount of teaching. In most cases 90% of what current managers were taught is wrong and the other 10% have not been taught the correct way. This is why the majority of current managers must go because they are unwilling to learn new things and are stuck in bad habits. A willingness to change and be taught, motivation in their lives, and hard work is what I look for. If you can find these three traits, I would say you have a good start. I also look for people who I simply like and could develop a relationship with because I find that people will work harder for a boss they like as opposed to working for a boss he or she does not like.Now how do you go about finding these people to run your multi-million dollar businesses? The first and easiest way is referrals. I always know the top brokers, bankers, and city employees in each city I tend to do business with. Due diligence is the key and you should know them all well. I like to send them out an e-mail letting them know I respect their opinions as successful and knowledgeable people in the city and if they know anyone who fits the criteria to please bring those individuals to my attention. I have yet to ever have to go outside those few contacts to hire any managers. Honestly, I have had too many people who were very qualified that could have fit the bill easily. If you cannot find someone from those contacts go introduce yourself to more well respected individuals in the community and get more referrals. The chamber of commerce meetings do wonders for this stage in the hiring process.One you get that referral and you find yourself someone who has integrity is a hard worker, motivated in life, and willing to learn new things then it is time to start them off on the right foot. I know when I walk into a job I am more comfortable when I know what I am doing. I remember umpiring for the first time and just got thrown out there. I was nervous and blew many calls. I then remember my first meeting with investors to ask them for money to invest in one of my deals. Was I nervous? Yes, a little, but I had training from someone who has been there before and I was much more comfortable and loved my job. Managers want to be trained and they will appreciate the training because they will not feel like a fish out of water on day one.I suggest give them a short self storage book written by Tom Litton. It is a very easy read for a self storage manager and the information from his books is readily available on the internet. Every business owner’s time is valuable, but the time you take to correctly train a new employee is well worth the time you save having to constantly retrain new employees. I would start the training process a week before they start to be sure not to give them information overload too quickly. I would give them a day or two to read these books and report to you with questions, comments, and concerns.Many storage companies and businesses use management software. The easiest way to foul up records is to fail to have the proper knowledge on how to use the products. On my storage facility I use Site Link web edition. Site link has training videos, webinars, and manuals that explain everything in detail. I give my employees a solid day to review all of Site Link’s materials so when day one comes he or she feels very confident on how to use the software. Once again you have no real involvement and require him or her to come to you with questions, comments, and concerns.Many other training materials that are put on by inside self storage and the national self storage association will compliment your own training tactics. If you are serious with your employees, you can have them take the QSM or CSSM courses through each medium. I am qualified in both and they are a great way to get started. I recommend that you take these for your own educational purposes and then pass your knowledge along to your managers.The final step in the training process is to do mystery shops, mystery calls, and other role playing on events that happen at a storage facility. I would spend an entire day role playing with your manager. I would do everything from doing pretend calls with customers interested in renting a unit, current customers unsure about the new management, and collection calls to delinquent tenants who are behind on rent. I also do pretend customers who walk in to rent a unit, walk-in people that make a payment, walk-in people who are behind on rent and try to negotiate, and so on. I want to be sure that the majority of the situations that could occur, my manager have seen the situation from me first. Once we are done with a single role paying situation, we always go back in our heads on the positives, negatives, and improvements to be made. We also record some of our phone calls so we can let managers listen to them themselves.The lifeblood of your company is the people who run it. I know I do not want to run my own company on a day-to-day basis as I am out there buying more properties. However, before you before you focus on buying another property, take the time to make sure the one you just bought is being managed properly. Trying to acquire your next deal, you need to learn the business yourself. It will give you plenty of a return on the investment of your education and I promise you, whatever you invest in your managers’ education, you will be paid back tenfold. Treat your manager like you want to be treated, be honest with them, deliver realistic expectations, and praise them in public and criticize them in private. Respect your managers and do your best to care for them as people, not just an employee and he or she will do their best to treat your business like it is his or her own. I know everyone cannot have a personal relationship with his or her employees but I care for the people who work for me and I am successful because of him or her. I want to extend a special thank you to my friends and managers Ron Harris, Amber Rowe, Natasha Redding, Ruben Rodriguez, Teri Williams, Linda Davis, Theresa Voyles and many more. They have definitely made my life happier than ever.

How to Increase Sales During a Recession

Increase Sales by Applying the Galatea Effect!Recently we discussed the Pygmalion effect, which is our ability to increase sales simply by expecting prospective clients to buy.We talked about a 1962 report by Rosenthal and Jacobson which showed that if teachers were led to expect enhanced performance from some children, then the children did indeed show that enhancement. It also showed that if teachers were led to expect poor performance from some children, then the children did indeed perform poorly.Today I would like to discuss a similar, but perhaps even more powerful way to increase sales…the Galatea effect. This is the ability of a person to improve his or her performance simply by enhancing self-expectations.I’m sure you’ve heard of the words, “self-fulfilling prophecy.”Whether you think you can or whether you think you can’t…you are probably right!” -Henry FordApplied as the Galatea effect, this means that an individual’s opinion about his ability and his expectations about his performance, largely determine his behavior and therefore his outcome.If a person thinks he or she can increase sales, it is much more likely they will increase sales. Consequently, any actions a person can take to increase their feelings of positive expectancy will go a long way to improve sales performance.What you believe will affect both the type and amount of actions you will take. The type and amount of actions you take with either increase sales or decrease sales.If you are a salesperson and you have a strong belief in both yourself and your product, you are much more likely to call on a larger number of prospects with an increased sense of confidence. The salesperson’s increased level of prospecting activity will inevitably increase sales! These results will affect what you believe.Once the salesperson makes more sales, he or she has more confidence and this should lead to even more activity, which will produce an even greater increase in sales. You get the idea.It is important to note that this cycle that works both ways. Assuming you had little belief in yourself and your product…it it likely you will take less action, get poor results, which will lead to an even lower sense of confidence and so on. I call this a “death spiral” in sales.But what comes first…you believing in your ability to increase sales, taking action and therefore getting increase sales results? Or you do you have to see the result first, which would then lead to enhanced beliefs…which will lead to taking more and better action?Obviously…the cycle begins with your expectations and your confidence in your ability to produce a certain outcome.I don’t mean to over-simplify this concept. Many other factors also contribute to the level of a person’s performance including: life experiences, education, family support, etc. Having said that…what if it is true that one of the simplest yet most effective ways to increase sales is to just expect a better outcome?What if you could increase sales just by increasing your confidence in yourself and your product’s ability to help your customer?Try this for the next thirty days and see how this works for you!

Let Us Help You Spring Clean Your Finances!

Since spring has sprung we are taking every opportunity to open our windows and let the fresh air in. Most of us start cleaning out the garage, clean off the outdoor furniture and pack up our old clothes to donate to charity. Why should spring cleaning end with your home? This is the perfect time to tidy up your personal finances as well. Consider these recommendations to “clean” up your finances.

Contribute to your 401(k). Make sure you contribute enough to your 401(k) to qualify for maximum matching funds. Your employer is willing to give you this free money so don’t leave it on the table.

Open and IRA. If you own your own business or work for a company with no retirement plan, open an IRA. You can get big tax breaks from opening this type of retirement plan. If you don’t know which IRA is right for you, you can search “Types of Retirement Plans” at irs.gov.

Rate check your credit cards. The interest rates on your credit cards can have an impact on your balances and have the potential of adding up over time. If your interest rate is increasing your card balances, it’s time to shop around to find a lower rate. Other items that are options for rate checks are mortgage loans, auto loans and even your checking and savings accounts. For a real feeling of gratification, pay off the balance that costs you the high interest. If you want to zero our your balance by the end of the year, divide the amount owed by 7 and pay that amount every month. Can’t bite off that much every month? Move the balance to another card with an introductory rate and pay it off before the deal runs out. Make sure there are no high transfer fees.

Open a savings account. Follow these three steps when opening your savings account:
1. Set a financial goal and timeline.
2. Decide how much to save each month to help you reach your goal.
3. Setup automatic transfers into your savings plan from your checking account. This way the transfer is done for you and you won’t miss the money.

Review your credit report. Make sure your credit reports are free of mistakes. Remember, you are able to order one free credit report every year from each of the three major credit bureaus. You can get one free of charge from annualcreditreport.com.

Organize or discard old financial documents. Sort through all your bank statements, invoices, bills and other financial records and keep those that are only necessary. Be aware you need to keep tax returns, canceled checks, receipts and any supporting paperwork for your taxes for at least six years. Make sure you don’t just trash your important documents in the trash without shredding them. You don’t want them to be picked up by an identity thief.

Set up automatic bill pay. Spring-cleaning just isn’t about de-cluttering. It’s about making your financial life more efficient. Set up automatic bill pay and link it to your checking account in an effort to eliminate any chance of missing a payment and paying late fees.

Review your budget. Take a close look at your current budget and decide if you need to make any changes.

Pay off as much debt as possible. Spring is a good time to review your outstanding debts and which loans or credit cards you could pay off. If nothing else, develop a stricter payoff plan. Cleaning up your outstanding debt quickly will put you in a much better financial position for the rest of the year.

Record your financial passwords and store all your records in a secure place. Make sure you’re not using the same password for all your financial accounts. Protect yourself against identity theft by protecting your passwords and other financial documents in an online secure vault.

Be a community steward. Try and make a difference in your community. Believe it or not, giving of yourself to others will make you feel a lot wealthier.

It’s Time For Millennials To Get Their Finances In Shape

Most millennials are now in there 20s and 30s, beginning a career climb and also the time when you are making major financial decisions. These financial decisions can include home ownership, investment strategies, and family planning. Certainly, you want to try and avoid some of the financial hazards that have transpired in the lives of previous generations.

Financial literacy is seldom taught in school, so if you didn’t learn it at home growing up, your first time in the “real world” may get you into some financial distress. Read below to learn some of the top financial tips that will help millennials make smart financial decisions.

Take online money management courses

Because most millennials excel at technology, I would suggest signing up for courses in basic economics, accounting and budgeting. These types of courses can be very affordable and very well delivered by the online professor. I feel this is a very efficient way to update yourself on financial topics that may simplify and improve your financial life.

Build up your retirement savings

Did you know that Wells Fargo revealed that almost 50% of millennials weren’t planning for retirement? Make sure you participate in your employer’s 401(k) plan, even if you can only afford to contribute the minimum every month.

Make a list of your whole financial picture

I recommend you make a list of everything that is spent each month. After you have digested this information, ask yourself this question. How am I going to pay for all of this? There are also four essential things everyone should know about their finances: income, expenses, assets and liabilities. Having a firm comprehension of these items will help you make sense of your finances. There are many online tools that can help you connect all your accounts – Mint, Quicken just to name a few. I believe this is your first step in improving your finances.

Research passive income opportunities

Most of us work for money all our lives and never really put it to work for us. It is possible to use your job income for passive income from your investments. For example, the IRS says passive income can come from two sources: rental property or a business in which you do not actively participate. Make no mistake; passive income is not about getting something for nothing. It involves a lot of work and is definitely not a “get rich quick” scheme.

Start a savings account

Open up a share account at your credit union even if you can’t make regular deposits. You can use this account to put extra money aside for your short term and even long-term goals. This can also be used as your emergency fund. Shoot for 3-12 months of expenses, put aside for emergencies.

Pay yourself first

Once you have money in your hand from your paycheck, IRS refund, etc. always pay yourself first. Arrange for automatic transfers from your checking account directly to your share account every payday or on a monthly basis.

Do you know the impact of your credit score?

Everyone, but especially entrepreneurial millennials need to understand that their personal credit can be the defining factor in getting working capital in the future. Getting approved for a loan can be very challenging when your credit score is low. Learn how to read your credit report and check it frequently.

Reduce your debt faster

Pay off small debts first and gradually tackle the larger ones. This will allow you to see results and stay motivated.

Enlist the assistance of a trusted mentor

There is an overabundance of information online regarding financial literacy. However, picking the brain of someone you know and trust is better. Their insights are often tailor-made to your specific needs.

Remove extra costs

It is a proven fact that millennials have expensive habits ($5 lattes every day, eating out on a regular basis, designer fashions, etc.). Keep a close eye on your expenses and trim them where you can.

Raise your children to be financially savvy

At this point you may already have young children or planning to start a family. Teach them that saving money is essential. When they are old enough take them to your credit union and help them open up their own accounts. This will hopefully excite them to continue saving their own money.

I hope you use these financial tips to keep your finances on track while you are young. Remember, you have a very bright financial future ahead of you if you start now and stick with it!

PAT Testing Procedure

Portable Appliance Testing (or PAT Testing) is a legally required method of testing portable appliances. There are many stages that go towards the testing process. It will end with either a pass or fail result.

Portable Appliance Testing needs to look at certain safety elements. Amongst the things that can cause the failure is damage to cables, plugs and wires, overheating and signs of water damage. There should be no bare wires and no sign of internal damage.

The testing needs to be done according to the IEE (Institute of Electrical Engineers) guidelines. Before testing takes place anyone who is not part of the testing team should leave the premises.

The most basic part of the testing process is the visual inspection. Over 90% of problems are said to be found during this part of the process. It consists of the tester looking at the appliance and seeing if there are any obvious issues.

Here the tester will be able to see any poor wiring, cracked casing, bent pins and other damage. These are the most basic areas where appliances fail the PAT test.

The location that a particular appliance is used needs to be inspected. There must be sufficient ventilation (depending one the needs of the equipment), the area cannot be unreasonably damp, and controls to the equipment must be easily accessible.

An Earth Bond Test needs to be carried out during the testing process. Electrical Test Equipment is necessary for this part of the procedure. This is a test between the earth bond and continuity between the plug pin and external components. The voltage and test current is assessed during this process.

Other parts of the test are the insulation test and operational test.

The insulation test is necessary to ensure the insulation resistance is safe. The operational test simply consists of the tester switching the equipment on and testing out certain regular functions that it should perform, and making sure its performance is as expected.

Once testing has been completed the result of the PAT test should be clearly stated. The most common method of this is simply placing a label on the equipment. The label will say whether the appliance has passed or failed, and should also include more specific details of its condition. It will give the date of the test and the date at which another test will be necessary.

Equipment that is faulty or damaged should be removed from service immediately. It can then be determined whether or not the seriousness of the damage is sufficient for the equipment to be out of use.

PAT testing records are required to be kept for the duration of the life of the appliance. This is a legal necessity as it shows that tests have been carried out and the results of them.

The Automotive Industry Marketing Plan

The auto industry is one of the largest industries in the world. It includes dealers, service shops for repair and body work, parts suppliers, insurance companies and even towing companies just to name a few. All areas of the auto industry share a common interest and that is cars. The interest in the auto industry has done nothing but increase over the years and all areas of the industry are learning to implement new marketing techniques in order to gain their customers attention.

Promotional products have been proven to be very effective marketing tools for businesses within the auto industry. Repair tools, key chains, safety tools, road side kits and many other promotional products that boast the company’s name or logo can not only be useful to the consumer but can be very effective in gaining more business for the company.

Tow companies often use roadside kits as a promotional part of their marketing campaign and it works. Think about the times of accidents, emergencies or break downs and that feeling of desperation while wondering who you should call. When you reach for the bag in your trunk that supplies your road side safety and emergency supplies and the logo of a towing company is clearly printed with a number for assistance, who else would you call? Many companies offer elaborate kits while others offer simple ones, the effectiveness of the advertising in those situations are not easily compared so there is no real proof that creating a kit complete with jumper cables and hazard signals works any better than one with road flares and a few simple tools.

Insurance companies and parts suppliers can also benefit from this promotional method of advertising. Any event that requires assistance will cause the driver to look for items they already possess in their vehicle to rectify the situation at hand and with those items and the contact information that is the number that will 9 times out of 10 be used.

Branding is another great way to use promotional advertising within the auto industry. When people take great lengths to accessorize or customize their vehicles they often want to show off the brands that they used. By incorporating engraved key chains, branded licensed plates and other accessories that sport the company brand or logo will be a great way to grab the attention of admirers. When consumers see the vehicle looking great and your company brand is located on it you will get the majority of the credit and they of course will come to you for all of their customization needs.

Parts suppliers and service garages often use tools as part of their promotional advertising campaign. This is due to the fact that when a vehicle breaks down or is in need of service or maintenance those tools that are on standby with the company logo on it will often be the reminder for the consumer to contact that company for their parts or service needs. You can use anything from flashlights, tire gauges to multi set tool kits to offer the advertising that you need to get that customer in your door.
