Half the price of an agency. Everything the cheap tools leave out. The whole system, in one bill.
A move-in is worth about $1,800 over a year. The system costs less than two of those a month. Everything past that goes in your pocket.
Locked for 12 months
Sign in alpha, your price is locked for a year — even when we double the list price.
Month-three guarantee
If your move-in count hasn't moved by month three, month four is on us. No invoice. No fine print.
Direct line
You work with Blake and the team. No account-management layer between you and the people doing the work.
The cheapest way to find out if paid ads work at your facility.
+ $1,000/mo ad spend minimum

Best for: Solo operators who want to test the channel before committing to the full system. Month-to-month.
Start with SignalThe full thing. One bill. Everything connected.
+ $1,000/mo ad spend minimum
Meta + Google + retargeting. Custom site with the storEDGE rental flow built in. Five landing pages tuned to the campaign. Bi-weekly calls to read the numbers and turn the dials.

Start with SystemFor facilities where every move-in is worth $2,400 or more.
+ $1,000/mo ad spend minimum

Best for: Climate-controlled, urban, or high-rent facilities where one extra move-in pays for the tier in a single month.
Start with CompoundAll prices per facility per month. Ad spend ($1,000/mo minimum) paid directly to Meta and Google — not marked up.

Book a call to walk through your numbersThe competition. Named.
Most independent operators are already paying for one of these. Sometimes two. Here's what each one actually sells — and what it leaves out.
Lead aggregator
2× first month's rent, per move-in
The math: On a $150/mo unit, $300 every time someone moves in — forever. At 10 move-ins/mo that's $36,000/yr in commissions, paid before your second month's rent shows up.
What they don't tell you: Those aren't your tenants. They're SpareFoot's. They get the email, the brand impression, and the relationship. You get the rental on day one and nothing else.
Google Ads automation
$199–499 / mo per facility
The math: One channel: Google search. No Meta. No retargeting. No landing pages. No video. No website. No human to call when something's off.
What they don't tell you: The price tag is the pitch. The product is a third of one channel running on autopilot.
Outsourced marketing retainer
$1,500–4,500 / mo + 15–20% markup on ad spend
The math: On $2,000/mo ad spend at 18% markup, $360/mo siphoned to overhead. That's $4,320 a year you paid to no one, for nothing.
What they don't tell you: The ad accounts, campaigns, landing pages, and creative are in their names, not yours. When the contract ends, you start from zero.
You + your phone
8–15 hours / week of your time
The math: If your time is worth $75/hr, that's $2,400–4,500/mo in opportunity cost — before any ad spend. And the campaigns are almost certainly underperforming what a team running 50 facilities can do.
What they don't tell you: Every lease-up day you didn't catch — because you were boosting a Facebook post instead of running the gate.
Every column above, in one bill
$749/mo + $1,000 ad spend
The math: Meta + Google + retargeting + custom site + 5 landing pages + video + the dashboard. At 10 move-ins/mo on a $150 unit, your effective cost is $175 per move-in— and you keep every month's rent, including the first.
What we'll tell you: Your ad accounts are in your name. The site is yours. The creative is yours. When the contract ends, you keep the keys.
Same checklist, six options. Scroll the table if you're on your phone — it's a lot of columns because we do a lot of things.

Enterprise · 10+ facilities
Management companies don't want three SKUs and a credit card form. They want one team, one login, one bill, and the option to run it under their own brand. That's Enterprise.
Three things sit outside the monthly number. We separate them so you see exactly what goes where.
Paid directly to Meta and Google. $1,000/mo minimum per facility. We don't mark it up. You see what you spent.
Twilio call tracking is built in. Numbers billed at cost (a few dollars per month per facility).
We don't use either. Real photos from your facility, or we shoot what we need.
Because below $1,000/mo, paid ads can't gather enough data to tune. You'd pay us to run a campaign that can't optimize. The floor isn't a margin grab — it's the line below which the channel doesn't work.
Signal and Compound are month-to-month. System is six months because the site build is included — if you leave before then, we keep the site fee. After month six, you're month-to-month like everyone else.
If your move-in count hasn't moved in the right direction by the end of month three, month four is on us. No invoice. No fine print. We eat it.
Not forever. These are founding facility prices and they roughly double once we're out of alpha. If you sign in alpha, your price is locked for twelve months.
There's a separate tier for portfolios of ten or more facilities, with white-label options and a dedicated team. Email blake@storageads.com or book a call below.
No. The site exists because it's part of the system — the ads send traffic to it, the rental flow lives on it, and the dashboard reads from it. Selling it alone would defeat the point.
Book 30 minutes. We'll pull up your facility, run the audit tool live, and tell you what we'd do if it were ours.
