Chiti, President and CEO of OpenTech Alliance, Inc., will present the free webinar “Renting Units Online: Is It For You?” for self-storage business owners, operators and managers.

Mr. Chiti asserts that renting units online is very similar and presents many of the same operations issues as renting units through a kiosk.
