What?  This thread up for about two days and NO RESPONSE from the author of "the future of storage auction selling"?

Where's the analysis? Where's the rationale for such a decision? Inquiring online storage locker buyers want to know !

The Storage Business Owners Alliance is like Sam's Club for storage facilities. As a member, you get discounts on things that you need to purchase for your facility.

Being a "preferred partner" for the SBOA is like being the "official dish washing detergent of NASCAR," except not quite as glamorous.  :D

Nowadays, you can buy any endorsement you need.

You could always send them a $100 gift card.  ;D

I would, but I don't want the guys from Storage Battles coming on the forum claiming I stole their precious designation.   ;D

I'm pretty sure they're busy with other things and have given up on any p***ing match with you.

After all "the future of storage auction buying" is big biz.

Hmmmm, very interesting…

Here is food for thought. According to the SBOA FAQ page there is an interesting question and answer.

Q: How do you choose your vendor partners?

A: We chose vendors who offer the best savings and service to our members. Additionally, our selected vendors view this opportunity as a win-win. They understand that offering reduced rates while growing the market share is worthwhile for the growth of their businesses.

If the SBOA holds true to their FAQ, one would think that Online Storage Auctions (considering the free aspect) would be the best choice. I mean, wouldn’t the same services offered for free be better than the Storage Battles price model when the SBOA FAQ is taken into consideration?

If I were you Travis, I would get in touch with the SBOA and get that preferred partner thing changed for the benefit of the SBOA membership. No?

I like your style.   You can't argue with logic.

Politics, paid endorsements...all things I don't want to be involved with.
