One of the greatest enticements for attending an industry tradeshow is the opportunity to interact candidly with peers and experts and collect business insider information. The Self-Storage Q&A, an event of the Inside Self-Storage World Expo in Las Vegas, March 14-16, aims to deliver honest discussion, industry insight, and several valuable prizes.

Scheduled for March 14, 4 to 5:30 p.m., the Self-Storage Q&A is an interactive, open forum where self-storage professionals can ask questions and get answers from colleagues within the field as well as well-known industry experts. The bi-annual Q&A is moderated by Jim Chiswell, president of Chiswell & Associates LLC, and Mel Holsinger, president of Professional Self Storage Management LLC. Topics addressed include rental rates, legal challenges, problem customers, legislative changes, staffing issues, industry trends and much more. Attendees determine the direction of discussion through their inquiries.

Prizes are also given away at random during the event. This years line-up of giveaways includes Wells Fargo gift cards, free online education packages, certificates for free registration at future tradeshows and more.

The ISS Expo, the self-storage industrys largest conference and tradeshow, will take place at the Paris Hotel & Resort. Open to self-storage owners, managers, investors, developers and others, the show includes three days of educational seminars, intensive workshops, networking events, and product and service exhibits.
