Tips for Video Marketing

By Scott Meyers

Published 18th January 2012

If you’ve ever wondered about video marketing, in this video Scott gives a quick glimpse on how to market your facility online, primarily through social media. A few tools of the trade don’t have to be progressive as you think. You don’t have to have a production company or a $1,000 camera. In fact, it’s pretty incredible what the iPhone 4s can do as far as video and uploading capabilities. Editing software such as iMovie or profiles on Feverr.com can also help with the production aspects. There are also plenty of cost-saving outlets once the finished product is ready as well, such as YouTube and a personal or company blog.

To find out more details and tips from Scott on video marketing, check out the video below.

OpenTech is Upgrading Their Offerings

By Scott Meyers

Published 13th September 2010

Our preferred self-storage kiosk vendor is upgrading their kiosk lines!

OpenTech Alliance recently announced the launch of its ISeries kiosk management services for the self-storage industry.
IReplay – allows self storage operators to see and hear the interaction and experience their customers have when renting a self-storage unit or making a payment. When a customer uses a kiosk, their entire transaction is recorded and stored for review. The kiosk records the screens as well as the customer and compiles it with the information entered into the kiosk. The IReplay of the transaction is accessed through the online reporting system and can even be shared with others via e-mail.
IMobile – allows busy self storage operators to use their phone to manage their business. Self storage operators can view kiosk transaction reports (including IReplays on phones that support Flash), see when new units are rented or payments are made, change settings, contact OpenTech technical support and control the kiosk in real-time using IRemote.
IRemote – allows self storage operators to help a customer while he or she is standing at the kiosk. Sometimes customers get stuck during a transaction (typically trying to login to make a payment). IRemote gives operators the ability to see the transaction and where the customer is having difficulty. Operators are then able to take control of the kiosk and enter the needed data.
