Meagan from C&J Storage Solutions brings a refreshingly different perspective to the shed industry. Drawing from her background in mental health facilities, she's transformed how customers experience buying outdoor structures at her family's business in Bonnell, Florida.
Her journey began unexpectedly—helping with social media and occasional weekend coverage for her parents' shed business. When COVID hit just after her son's birth, Meagan made the difficult choice not to return to healthcare, gradually taking on more responsibility until ultimately running the business while her parents moved into semi-retirement.
What makes Meagan's approach unique is her customer-first philosophy. "I'm not a salesperson," she admits candidly, explaining how she focuses on building genuine connections instead of rushing to close deals. This authenticity resonates with customers who appreciate straight answers and personalized guidance through what can be a significant investment decision. As Meagan notes, sometimes the hardest part of the entire process is simply choosing paint colors!
The conversation explores fascinating ways customers are repurposing sheds beyond basic storage—from home offices to art studios, fitness spaces to hair salons, and even microgreen growing operations. Meagan delights in helping customers design structures that transform their properties and enhance their lives, whether they need a compact garden shed or a fully finished workspace with electrical, insulation, and climate control.
Perhaps most impressive is Meagan's commitment to service after the sale. Rather than leaving customers to navigate warranty issues alone, she serves as their ongoing advocate—handling repairs, answering questions, and ensuring satisfaction years after purchase. This dedication has created a loyal customer base that returns for additional structures and enthusiastically refers friends and family.
Whether you're considering a shed, metal structure, or gazebo, this episode offers valuable insights into finding the right solution for your needs and working with dealers who truly care about your long-term satisfaction. Subscribe to Shed Geek for more conversations with industry professionals who are changing how we think about outdoor structures.
