What arrivesFive parts, about four pages
What the check contains
- Twelve searches. Twelve searches renters in your town use, from "storage units [town]" to "rv storage near me" and your own name. For each: whether you appear in the map pack and where, where you appear in the web results, and who holds the spots above you, described by type (a publicly traded storage company's managed site, a listing marketplace, the facility across town). No business is named; you will recognize them.
- The profile audit. Categories, hours against gate hours, photos, services, the pin, duplicate listings, attributes, reviews and how fast they are answered, and whether anyone has bought a sponsored listing inside your town's map pack.
- The website audit. Whether you have a page for each unit type, whether the rate on the page matches the gate, town coverage, speed on a phone, whether the marketplace widget is doing your site's job, and what Google can read from the code.
- The first 90 days and the fee. What we would do, in order, if you hired us, what we would leave alone, and the monthly fee for that plan, in writing.
- A plain answer. If your facility already ranks well and the right answer is "change nothing", the report says that.
The sample report shows every part for a fictional facility, with example numbers.
How we do itPublic information only
We check the searches the way a renter in your town would see them.
We run each search set to your town's location, on a desktop and on a phone, and record what Google shows, including the map pack, any sponsored listing inside it, and the first page of web results. We read your public profile and your public website. We do not need a login, a password, your management software or your tenant list, and we never ask for them.
It usually arrives within two business days. If something holds it up, we email you to say so.
AfterwardsNothing, unless you want it
What happens next is up to you.
If the report is useful and you would like help, reply and we will send a one-page agreement. If not, keep the report and use it with anyone. We send it only to you, and we do not publish it or sell it. If the answer is no, reply "no" and we won't write again.
We work with one owner per town. If we can't take on your town, we tell you straight away.
