United Stor-All Management Partners with G5 Search Marketing to Launch Business System Integrated Website
Collaboration Provides Real-time Online Reservations and Advanced SEO Practices
Mt. Airy, MD and Bend, OR – December 15, 2009
News
• G5 Search Marketing, the leader in local marketing solutions, has teamed with United Stor-All Management, one of the largest self storage property management firms in the US, to launch a fully integrated website that posts real-time information by property including unit availability, pricing, and promotions as well as secure online payment systems.
• United Stor-All Management’s objectives were twofold: 1) consolidate its business systems to increase efficiency and reduce costs, and 2) generate brand awareness and Web traffic of its individual client properties while providing the benefits of co-marketing through one website. G5 achieved these objectives through the G5 Centershift Adapter, a software solution that integrates the G5 and Centershift platforms, and redesign of the corporate website, featuring consistent use of design elements and branded pages for each storage location. The G5 Centershift Adapter is the first of several third-party integrations that G5 has planned for imminent release.
• This new website is available only to United Stor-All Management clients, providing the pass-along benefits of collaborative marketing through search engine optimization (SEO) and pay per click (PPC) advertising. United Stor-All Management’s clients also receive the value of the
G5 Local Marketing Platform, which consistently drives Web traffic, generates leads, and measures efforts to obtain the best return on marketing investment.
Commentary
• “A more complete understanding of the information sought by prospective customers allows United Stor-All Management to convert more site visitors into quality leads and customers,” said G5 CEO Dan Hobin. “This new integration effectively engages prospects by providing accurate and detailed information about each one of their properties and provides a secure method for payment.”
• “Our new website features new corporate positioning, but doesn’t sacrifice individual property brands,” said United Stor-All Director of Marketing Kristin Furr. “With the help of G5, we have a fresh Web design, more user-friendly functionality and the most up-to-date Web marketing strategies available.”
• “Centershift is pleased to be part of the United Stor-All Management website redesign. United Stor-All has hit a home run; G5 is driving traffic to the website and Centershift is helping to manage electronic reservations and payments,” said Centershift Vice President of Business Development and Marketing John Bilton. “United Stor-All has once again set itself apart from the competition in self storage management.”
