Housewide Storage -- Better Safe than Sorry But…
| |
| Imagine being able to access any file in the house -- wired or wireless. Yes a safe haven where you can store, protect, enjoy, share the family content and other stuff. All it takes is Plug and Play NAS. PnP sounds so friendly, so nice, so easy, so fun. NAS sounds like...gawd we don't know. But home networking, good home networking has been promised for years. All you need is a techie who just loves to help you, a few evenings and a long weekend and hey there's nothing to it. Face it...your sanity and keeping your blood pressure under control is worth something right? |

Smart Women Know When to Let Go
| |
| This article is about realizing that in order for things to change in our life, we ourselves need to change. A wise mentor told me once, that “change does not always mean success but success always means change.” We need to let go of the things that no longer serve us and create the space for something new. New growth and learning, new relationships, new career. Whatever you want to manifest in your life, you will need to make changes along the way. |

Recession Proof Real Estate
| |
| They’re often called recession-proof – steady investments that are inexpensive and easy to maintain with consistent profit margins.
Not to mention, they’re one area of real estate that seems mostly unaffected, if not helped, by current rough market conditions.
They’re storage units and people always need them. And all across the country, with a growing population that provides a constant supply of people in transit and in need of storage, they’re shooting up everywhere. Storage facilities require relatively low building and management costs.

Introduction to Self Storage Development

Introduction to Self Storage
| |
| Self Storage Association Definition: Self Storage facilities are real property designed and used for the purpose of renting or leasing individual storage spaces to tenants who are to have access to such space for the purpose of storing and removing personal property. They offer rental on a month-to-month basis of individual spaces where customers provide their own lock and have sole access to their space. Today’s typical storage facility may comprise several one or two-story buildings on two to 6 acres of land, or a multiple-story building, containing a carefully designed unit mix of spaces. The units typically range in size from 5X5 to 10X30 feet with 30,000 to 120,000 total rentable square feet of space. |

Technology is So Passé … It’s All About Fashion
| |
| We looked at the stuff at CES...at CTIA...at NAB...at all the shows and media
coverage. There was an epiphany (gotta love that word). The PC/CE/communications/content
industry isn't about technology...it's fashion! It's what's hot...what's not.
Notebooks...no netbooks...no smartphones...no ebooks...no tablets. Local storage...centralized
storage...personal storage...cloud storage. Your next product, service can be
hot, cold, dead in a month. We flip faster than skirts rise and fall. There are
no bold , ah ha predictions here but at least you'll know why you change phones,
computers (whatever) more often than you change cars. What's it gonna be tomorrow?
Don't ask the buying public(s)..invent it!!!! -- borrowed from John Doerr (come
on what do you think fashion is? Right creative borrowing!).

Building a Self Storage Facility
| |
| All Across the United States, entrepreneurs are talking about the self storage business. The word is out that investing in the mini storage business can be very profitable. And it’s not just the experienced investors that have their eye on the Self Storage Business prize. With lower building and management costs than virtually all other real estate investments and a failure rate of around 7 percent, the self storage industry is drawing first-time business owners and investors alike. |

Self Storage Feasibility Studies
| |
| So you’ve decided to get into the self-storage business by developing your own Self Storage Facility. Well the first step should be to locate a viable parcel of ground to develop. However, many investors find that determining an adequate site is a little more difficult than they imagined, and perhaps, should be done with the aid of an independent third party. Why? Because a feasibility study, conducted by a professional, will provide an in-depth analysis of the location to determine if it is viable for Self-Storage. |

Content … Keeping the Old Gals Around for a Few More Years
| |
| It was great to see all the new capture, production toys at NAB. The camera, production board, software had the content people -- Katzenberger, Moonves (CBS), Carey (News Corp), other major/minor players -- huddling around all their new high def and 3D stuff every minute the show floor was open. When the lights went out and all that content was sent back to the lowly under appreciated storage systems. The same was true of the consumer/prosumer capture/production products that were displayed. The only difference is the storage devices were smaller. In addition to 1-5GB solutions lots of people use the more compact 500GB-1TB storage units that incorporated advanced security technology. Cameras, software, people get their names in lights but when was the last time you saw a 5TB storage unit listed on the film's credits. |

Storage -- Worry About It the Day After Tomorrow
| |
| We finished this analysis on storage types/applications over the weekend and Apple decided to finally talk about all their new devices and everyone (we mean everyone) jumped on the tablet bandwagon. We'll look at the area shortly but right now we can only say every bit of storage folks can make/ship is being used...then some! Right now let's look at the leading storage offerings -- flash, hard drive, clould (don't let em kid you the cloud is still hard drive). But only you can determine which storage option is best for you in each of your applications -- work in progress, valuable, super valuable, irreplaceable. Weigh the costs/risks and store accordingly. Don't wait till the Day After Tomorrow.
