Nobody left the April 10th TSN Storage Redefined Masterclass without a brainful of important lessons learned about RV and boat storage, with one exception: They also gained strategies to increase profits through flex space, truck parking and marina storage, making Toy Storage Nation the No. 1 resource for entrepreneurs seeking future success in the burgeoning alternative storage industry.
The Masterclass started out strong, with a special presentation by Janes Breuning of StorTrack in which he delivered an industry overview based on the company’s exclusive data, revealing:
- How many dedicated RV and boat storage facilities currently exist
- How many facilities currently offer a hybrid model that includes traditional storage and RV-boat storage
- A look at the top markets based on the number of facilities, which may be inching into an oversupplied market
- Areas experiencing a high-growth population, which may indicate a need for more RV/boat storage facilities
