I think the polka band is a great idea. I used to have a local band that stored with us and we used to let them practice on site. They sure did draw a crowd. One of the benefits is that they brought their friends around and we would hand out coupons to the theim for discount rentals. We got several new customers that way. Another thing we did was sponser a community "Garage Sale" and anyone wanting a space would rent the storage unit for a month and each weekend we opened the sale to the general public. That was a big success.
