Self Storage Investing

Send us Fan Mail#PlatformForChange Series Pilot Hello everyone and welcome back to The Self Storage Podcast, i'm your host Scott Meyers. I would like to take the time to introduce to you what will be known as the Platform for Change segments. My team and I have come up with the #PlatformForChange segments by inspiration of the #ShareTheMicNow campaign that took place in early June10 2020 across instagram. Simply put, these segments came together by way of collaboration with my team members who are able to educate me, as I do millions on the topics related self-storage investing, on understanding the lens of the Black community in their everyday experience. Self Storage Investing is a business that has grown through education, understanding and partnership with a diverse array of wonderful individuals combined. These podcasts segments will be a way to continue the conversations that are necessary even at the self-storage investing level as our way of saying "the lens and understanding need to become a shared experience in order to be the change we want to see." My first guest of this segment is my good friend Harding Easley. After almost two decades of a career as an executive in Telecommunications, Harding chose Red estate and Big Data as a perfect combination. As an Account Executive at Yardi Matrix, Harding advises prospects and clients on how to obtain up-to-the-minute data on multifamily, commercial, self-storage and vacant land properties. Harding demonstrated on a daily basis how Yardi Matrix has proven (using post-deal analysis, as well as pre-Investment Committee meeting analytics) that clients can come within 2% of final winning bids with less than 30 minutes of analysis per property. Experiences and opinions on the subject of social justice are representative of Harding an his family owned business-The Harding Group and not representative of the privately owned company Yardi Systems.For more information on today's guest:https://www.linkedin.com/in/harding-easley-32a2693/www.thehardinggrp.comhttps://www.yardi.com/Helping People Become Financially Independent Without The Hassles of Tenants, Toilets, and Trash with Self Storage Investing!Website: https://www.selfstorageinvesting.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMeyers.SelfStorageInvesting/Twitter: https://twitter.com/SelfStorageGuyLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottameyers/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/SelfStorageInvestingInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/self_storage_investing/White Label Storage helps self-storage owners grow revenue, improve operations, and scale more efficiently with a tech-enabled management approach.
