Smart Storage Concepts Embeds 1st Storage Reservations Engine on Facebook
Online "social media" has created a totally new "channel" for businesses to engage with their customers. Smart Storage Concepts provides their clients customers with the ability to actually "transact" business with them while there.
Online, February 29, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Oldsmar, Florida - Smart Storage Concepts is pleased to announce that www.BudgetSelfStorageFlorida.com has become the first of its storage industry clients to introduce online reservations into the realm of social media. Now friends, fans and friends of fans can book Budgets' storage units while visiting any one of their multiple facilities Facebook pages.
"We are really excited about this," said Jody Burks, Budgets GM of Operations, " since we first began using SSC's real time, reservations technology on our corporate website back in 2010, we've been able to identify, track, and communicate with our online customers. Now with a Facebook strategy," Jody said, "we can spread the word about the kind of service and savings we have at Budget Storage around our communities. It's word of mouth advertising at its best."
According to Mike Harley, SSC president and COO, "We are the first and only company with the ability to provide storage operators with a real-time reservations system for their website. And with social media rapidly growing, today's consumer expects more than information when landing on a corporate Facebook page. They expect to be able to transact business while there and, in real time! This saves the customer time and money while enabling our client to track every transaction."
SSC provides its clients with a very affordable, robust and powerful Centralized Reservations System (CRS) which enables the online shopper to deal directly with them rather than going through a third party website. Being proactive and taking on a greater level of responsibility empowers businesses to take definitive measures and initiatives with minimal interference from outside sources. SSC's primary objective is to empower its clients to drive traffic, convert shoppers and increase revenue through proven business practices.
SSC's proprietary platform is enterprise grade and can seamlessly integrate with SiteLink's self storage property management system. Smart Storage Concepts offers a proven solution for operators to accurately maintain rates, control inventory and manage multiple marketing channels and partner relationships.
