When you cover your tenants with a self storage protection plan, you give them peace of mind and prepare them for smoother disaster recovery. And there’s no time like storm or hurricane season to remind them to get signed up.
Need a quick, ready-to-use email to remind tenants how your protection plan works and why they should use it? We’ve got you covered.
Scott McLaughlin of Sentry Self Storage Management shared his tips for disaster preparedness on our recent Disaster Prep Gabfocus, including a series of templated emails to send to keep tenants in the loop before, during, and after a crisis.
Our Operator Toolkit includes self storage templates to use with only a few customizations. Use the Inclement Weather Protection Plan Email Template as a starting point to inform tenants that you’re entering into bad weather season and letting them know the benefits and costs of your protection plan.
Prepare your tenants ahead of time and help them get the coverage they need, all while keeping up a line of communication that lets them know you’re thinking ahead.
Not only does a protection plan elevate your monthly income, many insurance policies won’t cover a tenant’s storage unit. Having a protection plan in place means your tenant knows who to hold responsible for recovery after a disaster’s struck, and can lead to faster recovery times. Offering a protection plan through your storage facility gives your tenants options and shows you’re looking out for them.
Download and modify our free template to best fit your storage facility’s messaging. Use it as a starting point or just fill in what's there as appropriate. Whether it’s just to raise awareness of your tenant protection plan or to let tenants know you’re keeping an eye on the weather, Scott tells us that “You can’t overcommunicate” when it comes to disaster preparedness.
Our Operator Toolkit also includes time-saving templates for facility maintenance, unit status, facility closing due to inclement weather, and more.
