If you're living in an area near a lake, chances are you've seen
the masses flocking to the water every weekend to enjoy some fun
in the sun without having to make a trek to the beach. Many of
those people own boats or personal watercraft, and they need to
store it somewhere when they're not tearing it up on the lake.
Sure, they could rent a dock, but docks are extremely expensive
to rent and maintain, and there's a limited number of them. It
would be much easier to pick up or drop off the boat at a storage
facility on the way to the lake.
And that's where your self-storage facility comes in.
Give them a place to store their boats
Boats are an expensive investment. Many cities and towns have
passed ordinances against storing boats in driveways and on the
streets, and docks only have a limited number of spaces. More
and more boat owners will be looking for a safe, convenient place
to keep their toys.
Chances are, with your storage facility, you would be able to
offer your customers a lot more in terms of security and peace
of mind than the docks, and for considerably less than they'd
be paying for a dock.
In the boat storage business, customer service is very important.
Your clients are paying you quite a bit to store their boats,
so adding little extras, like charging the battery or keeping
the boats cleaned, will make them feel like they're getting their
money's worth and keep them, and their friends, coming back. Plus,
by offering 24-hour access at your site, you can eliminate their
hesitation at losing the easy access spots at the docks.
