About
I’m Kenny Pratt and I’m glad you found your way here. I am really passionate about good communication (which is the essence of sales and persuasion) and I love to teach. I hope you find the ideas I share here useful and interesting.
I am the President of Crescendo Properties, Inc. a real estate investment and development firm in Sacramento, CA. We have acquired and manage a portfolio of 14 Self Storage properties valued at more than $100M. On a day-to-day basis I am responsible for the operations of our portfolio properties. You can see the portfolio here: StorageKings.com
My advice and point of view are a mix of ideas harvested from experts in academia and other industries combined with my boots on the ground experience as a self storage operator.
Before being appointed president in May 2007 I was primarily focused on commercial property acquisitions. I have worked on contract negotiation, financial analysis, due diligence, and financing. I also worked on the site acquisition and financing team for Crescendo’s joint venture with Splash n’ Dash Carwash (now Quick Quack Carwash). You can find Quick Quack here: www.dontdrivedirty.com
I completed an MBA in marketing at Brigham Young University.
I once worked for the Boy Scouts of America as a District Executive. (Ironically, my first 4 children were girls. Our fifth is a boy.)
I’m happily married to my beautiful and talented wife, Cindy.
