You're About to Leave Thousands on the Table

Black Friday is 17 days away.

Your garage is full. Your spare bedroom doubled as a warehouse months ago. You've got orders coming, inventory scattered, and exactly zero hours left in the day to figure out where anything goes.

Most small businesses think warehouse space is an expense. The math says otherwise.

📊 The break-even number that changes everything: 6 orders per week

The Real Cost of Running Your Business from Your Garage

You're not spending money on warehouse space because you're being careful with cash. Smart.

Except the garage or storage unit is costing you more than rent ever would.

When you can only stock half the inventory you could actually move because there's literally nowhere to put it, revenue walks away. When your conversion rate drops because customers can't get orders within 48 hours, that's more money gone. When you pass on wholesale discounts because you have no room for bulk orders, you're paying retail prices to protect yourself from growth.

The numbers don't care about your reasons. They just add up.

Our latest breakdown shows what small businesses lose when space becomes the bottleneck. 

We ran three scenarios: 

1. the owner who can't stock enough inventory, 
2. the one whose fulfillment speed kills conversions, 
3. and the business that can't buy wholesale because there's nowhere to store bulk orders.

In every case, proper warehouse space pays for itself with 3-6 additional orders per week. 

Not 50. 

Not 100. 

Just three to six.

Peak season doesn't wait. 

The orders are coming whether your infrastructure can handle them or not.

From Living Room Meetings with Strangers to Landing Clients in the Hallway

"I shouldn't have so many people coming into my home… Now I can have them meet me here. And at the time it just seemed so easy, but no, the world is crazy." — Chaka Howard, Indigo Event Marketing

Chaka was managing events for White Claw, Foot Locker, and Polaris Slingshot while cramming 200+ brand ambassadors into her living room for meetings. She was asking million-dollar clients to meet her in parking lots. She had promotional materials scattered across three storage units. When she sold a cabinet and had to invite the buyer to her house, she realized how unsafe her setup had become.

She drove past WareSpace looking to consolidate storage units. She left with office space, conference rooms, mail services, and something she didn't expect: a networking community that became her biggest growth lever.

At a happy hour she organized, she met other tenants and landed two new clients on the spot. She's now collaborating with a tequila company and a juice brand she discovered just by walking down the hallway.

Her business tripled. The professional environment matches what her clients expected all along.
