Successful management of a self storage facility is a constant struggle for control over time. Without a good system, managers are at the mercy of external events, and things fall through the cracks day-after-day. The things that don't get done are often the things that are most important to the business, like staff recruiting, team development, and long term business development. When these things don't happen, it creates a heavier burden on the manager, and that makes the manager's struggle over time even worse.
