The Argus Marketing Program
The Argus Marketing Program is the most comprehensive of any in the entire real estate
business. The underlying premise is that getting the most exposure for a property as quickly
as possible will increase the number of qualified offers received. To ensure that we reach
buyers, we have developed a multifaceted marketing program to give your facility the utmost
exposure, both nationally and locally. Each element of the program is briefly described
below.
Note: Argus Self Storage Sales Network, Inc. is a marketing consultant and provides marketing services for the Argus
Broker Affiliates authorized to receive such services. Argus is not a party to any listing, buyer representation, or other real
estate related contract unless specifically agreed to in writing by Argus Self Storage Sales Network, Inc.
BROKER NETWORK
The most important part of the Argus Marketing Program is our network of Broker Affiliates
specializing in self-storage. Since all of the Argus Broker Affiliates specialize in self-storage, they
have developed an industry-wide network of contacts. They have relationships with literally
hundreds, if not thousands, of owners and buyers. Each broker is aware of every property listed
within the network, and is prepared and motivated to assist other Argus Brokers in a potential
transaction.
ARGUS DATABASE
On behalf of its Broker Affiliates, Argus maintains a database of owners, buyers, sellers, and industry
specialists. The database consists of approximately 25,000 self-storage owners, prospective buyers
and potential prospects.
INDUSTRY CONTACTS
As in any other business, it’s not what you know as much as who you know, and in self-storage this is
an even more important factor because of the unique nature of the property type. Over the years,
Argus has built strong relationships not only with buyers and sellers, but also with lenders,
appraisers, other real estate professionals and the large industry operators.

SELFSTORAGE.COM
www.selfstorage.com is the self-storage industry’s premier
website, receiving an average of approximately 71,000
unique visitors per month. As part of www.selfstorage.com,
Argus promotes its listings, provides valuable industry
information, and develops qualified leads. Interested parties
searching for storage properties are able to view all of our
current listings and details on each property by clicking on
the Argus homepage.
When people search the web for self-storage they most often
go to www.selfstorage.com. This site is a low cost, high
quality advertising option for self-storage owners and
operators. Please visit the site and see for yourself. The site
also offers a searchable list of industry vendors, the ability to
request bids from these vendors, and a forum to discuss
industry issues.
OFFERING MEMORANDUMS
The Argus Offering Memorandum is a packet designed to
give as much historical and current information about the
property as a potential investor would need. Its unique
design is easily recognizable and has been approved by
several self-storage lenders as their means of making a
cursory inspection of the property without leaving their office!
The Offering Memorandum is available in both printed and
electronic format. Your broker will work closely with you – and
if any of the pertinent data changes, he or she will notify us
and we will update the Offering Memorandum in a timely
manner.

MARKET MONITOR Argus and the network of Argus Broker Affiliates email the
Market Monitor once a month to owners and prospective
buyers. The Market Monitor is a well-recognized newsletter
in the industry. It is a significant source of leads for our
Broker Affiliates. The Market Monitor includes a short article
as well as details on our current properties for sale. We
have found that owners and buyers are attracted to the
format – everyone seems to like to see what is available on
the market. We believe the credibility of the Market Monitor
lends credibility to the listings.
ALERT ON SELF-STORAGE
Argus also publishes an e-newsletter, Alert on Self-Storage,
for owners and prospective buyers who request a
subscription. This e-newsletter draws potential buyers to our
website and thus to your listing. Our list of e-mail
subscribers is growing quite rapidly and enhances our overall
Internet presence. Past issues of the newsletter are
archived on our website.
NEW LISTINGS ANNOUNCEMENT
Each month, subscribers to the Argus email list will receive
an announcement of all of the Network’s newest self-storage
listings. This email contains basic property information and
photos as well as a link to the detailed information on the
Argus website.

ONLINE MARKETING
LoopNet
Argus posts all of the Network’s self-storage listings to LoopNet, the premier
web-based real estate listing service in America with over 100,000 commercial
listings in its system. It is a valuable source of both “out of industry” leads as
well as those within the industry. LoopNet directly connects any prospect
viewing your listing to the Argus home page where more information can be
found. Your listing will be available to all public searches beginning 30 days
after its initial entry. You may search for it by visiting www.loopnet.com and
clicking on “Search Properties.”
Property Line
Property Line supports the commercial brokerage community with its focus on
the marketing of properties. Listed on Property Line, your property will gain the
attention of thousands of potential investors. With a membership of over
51,000 commercial brokers and investors, Property Line will get your listing the
attention it deserves. This additional resource allows your Argus Broker to
distribute information on your property to the widest range of potential buyers.
As a buyer’s representative, an Argus Broker will use Property Line to assist
you in your search for suitable properties. Visit their website
www.propertyline.com.
CoStar Group
CoStar Group, Inc. is commercial real estate's leading source of verified
commercial properties for lease and for sale. With an audience of 65,000+
professionals, Argus works with CoStar to post your detailed listing information
so that it gets maximum exposure to top commercial real estate brokers,

CONVENTIONS AND TRADESHOWS
Argus attends all major industry conventions as well as state
and regional conventions in an effort to market our customers’
properties. Materials on each property are available in the
Argus tradeshow booth as well as a video display of all
properties. A team of Argus Brokers is present to discuss
properties and assist visitors with their needs. Argus has a
presence at all the major self-storage conventions. Materials on
your listing are available at the booth. Each of these
conventions attracts from 1,000 to 4,000 attendees and results
in qualified prospects for our brokers.
In addition, our Broker Affiliates also attend regional association
meetings. These meetings are often smaller but more intimate.
The Brokers have information on all listings available and often
use the Argus booth, if appropriate. In the past year, Argus
Broker Affiliates have represented the Network at meetings in
Texas, Wisconsin, New England, New York, Missouri, Kansas,
California, Colorado, Washington, North Carolina, Alabama and
Florida. Your Argus Broker’s association with the Argus Self
Storage Sales Network provides this unique exposure-- one that
other brokers simply cannot duplicate.
MAGAZINE ADVERTISING
As a leading source for self-storage information, both Inside Self
Storage and The SSA Globe are read by most major owners
and operators and Argus advertises in both publications. Inside
Self Storage has a subscription base of 23,000 and The SSA
Globe has a subscription base of over 16,000. The SSA Globe
is the “official” voice of the National Self Storage Association
(SSA), and a free subscription is given to each SSA member.
Magazine advertising is a very productive lead generator for
Argus Broker Affiliates. We also find that “newcomers” to the
business (i.e. non-current owners) often come to us from this
source.
