Why it matters

The fastest growth is the revenue you already have.

New move-ins are expensive to win. Existing tenants, priced correctly and offered the right add-ons, are not. Smart Storage helps you fill with promotions and then steadily lift rates and attach services — so revenue per unit climbs without a single extra marketing dollar.

01

Promote to fill

Stand up a discount in seconds — percentage or fixed, one-time or ongoing — to move slow unit types and win the rental.

02

Raise rates as you fill

Occupancy-based automation nudges prices up as a site fills — capped at your street rate, with advance notice sent to renters.

03

Earn more per door

Attach protection plans, recurring services, and retail at checkout or anytime — more revenue from units you already rent.

What's included

Six levers on revenue, all shipping today.

Promotions

Percentage or fixed-dollar discounts — one-time, forever, or for a set number of cycles — tied to specific unit types or applied across the board.

Mass rate increase

Search by months-since-last-change or unit type, preview every affected rental, then batch the increase with an advance-notice rule built in.

Rate automation

Rules adjust price by occupancy threshold, capped at your street rate, with renter email notices sent automatically. Set it once and let it run.

Add-on services

Sell recurring services and fees — maintenance, protection, more — as child subscriptions on a rental. Add or remove anytime, charge now or offline.

Protection plans

Offer tenant protection as a choose-one plan — one active per rental — required or optional, at checkout or later, with the charge handled for you.

Retail products

Sell locks, boxes, and supplies right from the counter — each sale generates an invoice and feeds an inventory report so stock stays honest.

Pricing that runs itself

Raise rates the right way — fairly, and on time.

Most operators leave money on the table because rate increases are a chore. Automate the chore — within guardrails you control — and the increases actually happen, on schedule, with tenants given proper notice.

01

Triggered by occupancy

Set thresholds so prices rise as a unit type fills — capturing demand the moment it shows up.

02

Capped & noticed

A street-rate cap keeps increases sane, and renters get advance email notice every time — no surprises, fewer move-outs.

03

Exemptions honored

Flag any rental exempt from automated increases, so promised rates and special arrangements always hold.

Reputation fills units, too

Turn happy move-ins into Google reviews.

A review-request template and a per-location Google review link make it easy to ask renters for a rating at the right moment — building the reputation that wins the next search, so your lowest-cost marketing channel keeps working while you sleep.
