Attracting flex space tenants is an art.

Before ads.
Before social media.
Before any of that worked…

I had one strategy:

Show up. Every. Single. Day.

I bought 30 sign stands.

And every morning at 7 a.m.—
I’d be on-site.

Opening every bay door.
Cleaning the units myself.
Wiping down the offices.

Then placing a sign in front of each space so anyone driving by knew—

This is available.

No shortcuts.
No automation.

Just visibility and consistency.

And it worked.

People would drive in…
Walk the space…
Come straight to me…

And that’s how I got my tenants.

Different tools today.

Same principle:

If people don’t see it, they won’t lease it.

I’ve been involved in flex space development at every level.

And I mean every level.

11 years ago, I did it all—

Finding land
Fighting through zoning
Working with engineers
Designing layouts
Sourcing materials across Texas…
down to the chain on a roll-up door.

There was no team.

So there was no delegation.

Looking back—

That’s what gave me the edge.

Because today, I don’t need to be in every decision.

I understand the process.

And that’s what allows me to step back, trust my team, and focus on growth.

The lesson:

If you want to lead at a high level…

you need to be in the details early.

That’s where real confidence comes from.
