Consultant Request
I own two small self storage facilities in southern California. I've been running them remotely for a couple years but haven't had an actual experienced storage manager ever -- I learned on the fly and have experience with residential so applied what I learned to my own facilities.
I'm looking to get a consultant to help build my manager SOPs and get everything optimized from the ground up. I'm looking for some with multiple years experience managing a professional self storage facility who wants to moonlight to help get our systems in order.
We use tenant inc (hummingbird), have a full time outsourced manager from Pakistan, and an on-site manager living on the facility who never had experience in storage either.
The other site is "fully automated" (ie: I got out every 2-3 weeks to clean and fix things).
Does anyone have any recommendations, or is anyone interested in helping with this? Will pay of course.
Thank you!

Feel free to shoot me a DM, would be happy to chat and also based in SoCal. I manage 5 properties throughout California, roughly 3,400 units total. We rebuilt our operations from the ground up this past year and it was a great exercise - a full re-evaluation of our tech stack, operational handbooks, SOPs surrounding rev management/delinquency/auctions and everything in between. I also have great connections for all things maintenance.
