3 Key Tasks to Outsource for Self-Storage Success
In the fast-paced world of self-storage, efficiency is the name of the game. Step back and evaluate your behind-the-scenes operations through the lens of an efficiency expert. Are you running a smooth, well-oiled machine, or is your team juggling phone calls, on site customer inquiries, cleaning out units and other administrative tasks with limited time and resources?
If your operations feel stretched thin, it may be time to consider outsourcing. By entrusting essential tasks to experts, you not only lighten the load for your team but also improve customer satisfaction, increase revenue, and streamline your business. At XPS Solutions, we believe Experience Matters—Theirs, Yours, and Ours. That’s why we offer tailored outsourcing solutions to help you achieve peak performance.
Streamline Your Operations: Why Outsourcing is an Investment, Not an Expense
Outsourcing isn’t just about saving time—it’s about driving long-term growth. By identifying critical tasks that can be managed externally, you can focus on what truly matters: growing your business and enhancing customer experience.
Consider this: The average self-storage facilities miss 60-90 calls per month. That’s up to 90 missed opportunities for revenue, customer retention, and satisfaction. With XPS Solutions, you’ll ensure no call goes unanswered, freeing your team to prioritize key responsibilities while boosting profitability.
Let’s dive into three essential tasks you should consider outsourcing—and how XPS can help.
1. Phone Calls: Boost Customer Satisfaction and Retention
Answering customer inquiries promptly is critical in the self-storage industry. At XPS Solutions, our highly trained call center agents specialize in self-storage operations.
They deliver:
• Expert Guidance: Agents address inquiries with precision, fostering trust and credibility.
• Personalized Support: Customers appreciate quick, attentive service, leading to higher retention rates.
• Account Visibility: With our direct integration with nearly all of the current software platforms, our agents can speak directly to your tenant’s needs
• Reputation Management: Skilled agents handle challenging situations proactively, minimizing negative reviews and safeguarding your brand.
When your customers feel heard and valued, loyalty follows. By outsourcing phone calls, you’re not just saving time—you’re investing in your customers’ trust and satisfaction.
2. Rentals: Convenience That Drives Revenue
Did you know that 70% of customers are willing to pay more for convenience, and 75% would switch companies for a more streamlined leasing process?

3. Payments: Simplify Cash Flow Management
