SelfStorageAuction.com, a leading online auction site that provides bidders with a centralized place to find and bid on self-storage auctions online, has partnered with Thinkbound as their exclusive web and application development and digital strategy team.
 

Thinkbound is also the current web development team behind iBid4Storage.com`s success, SelfStorageAuction.com’s sister company. Thinkbound is now partnered with both companies, taking care of their digital development and innovative, online goals.
 

Thinkbound specializes in high level digital development, application integration, and identity optimization that includes online and offline strategies for self-storage companies across Canada, the United States, and world-wide.
 

A dedicated team of system administrators, front-end web designers and senior developers are all managed under Thinkbound’s roof, and bring a diverse range of search engine optimization expertise to ensure their clients’ sites remain visible on top searches for auctions online.
 

In charge of managing the technical operations and the intricate components of the technology infrastructure and web services, Thinkbound allows iBid4Storage.com to iterate new features quickly and remain a nimble platform that can expand in multiple jurisdictions.
 

Alexander Plagiannakos, founder of Thinkbound and the current Vice President of Technology Services for iBid4Storage.com, manages the global, online self-storage auction platform that has expanded across North America, to Australia, and soon to arriving in South Africa and the UK.
 

“Alexander and his team have been a huge resource to our online business. Not only has Thinkbound helped gain our platform additional exposure, but they have helped accelerate and streamline our processes, and provided creative solutions to issues we have faced,” Leon Benghiat, president and founder of iBid4Storage.com said.
 

Plagiannakos will now spearhead the web development, digital optimization, and overall security and IT infrastructure for the SelfStorageAuction.com platform.
 

“We have seen what Alexander and his team was capable of based on the successes of our Canadian counterparts (iBid4Storage.com). He brings creative problem solving, relentless work ethic, and ingenuity for new transformative ideas. He has many years of experience in auction websites and application development on a global scale and knows how to help grow an operation to levels that we are positioned to achieve,” said SelfStorageAuction.com founder Jim Grant. “As the director of IT and innovation, he’ll be a key component of our gifted team to innovate forward and ensure continual smooth operations and security"
 

 “What excites me about this industry is the accelerated adaptation of next generation solutions and ideas. With groundbreaking advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning, we are discovering opportunities to add further value, disrupt the industry and carve a unique segment for us to shine as leaders in self-storage auctions." Alexander said. “We have a great team here and joining SelfStorageAuction.com gives us the opportunity to take our proven digital and operational strategies and implement them to a sophisticated self-storage auction platform reaching a nation-wide audience in the United States. I am delighted to join the company and look forward to leveraging my background in digital development, marketing, and strategic innovations to contribute to long-term success.”
 

Grant was the founder of the ground-breaking online auction site Storage Battles, which was named the self-storage industry’s “Best Auction Service” in three consecutive years, from 2013 to 2015, by Inside Self-Storage Magazine. The ISS Magazine’s “Best of Business” awards was launched in 2011, and are voted on by industry professionals, recognizing excellence in the self-storage industry.
 

6 years of partnership and innovation between iBid4Storage.com and Thinkbound have produced 5 consecutive years of winning the ISS “Best Online Auction Services,” and counting. SelfStorageAuction.com is seeing the success their sister company has had with Thinkbound, and following suit.
 

SelfStorageAuction.com is a new mobile-friendly website that combines the simplicity, reliability, and exceptional customer service of the original Storage Battles platform with new features that ensure stability and increase the quality of the user-experience. Plagiannakos and Thinkbound will be joining the team of other experienced online storage auction professionals from Storage Battles and Storage Treasures, now at SelfStorageAuction.com.
