42: $2.6mm SELF STORAGE BUSINESS USING OFFSHORE TEAM w/Baird Kleinsmith

In this episode of the OWNR OPS Podcast, I interview Baird Kleinsmith, the Sultan of Storage.

What's more impressive is this business kicks off close to $900k per year in annual cash flow while being managed by an offshore team in Latin America.
