Collegiate Storage and Rental to Host Student Micro-Business Program

New York area college students from New York University, Columbia, NYIT, Juilliard, and others looking to gain real world experience while earning cash at the same time can now apply for Collegiate Storage and Rental’s new Student Ambassador Program. Starting this semester, the local storage, rental and shipping company will choose one ambassador per housing unit who will represent the company on campus at more than 20 New York City area colleges and universities. The program will provide students with the opportunity to run a micro-business from their dorm and serve as the liaison between Collegiate and their campus residence.

The Student Ambassador Program will offer students the chance to get resume-worthy experience. Each student ambassador will be in charge of informing their peers of the shipping and storage services Collegiate offers, and for promoting sales from their building. For every new order that comes from their residence hall, they will receive a commission: $20.00 for every Humungous Box order, $15.00 for every Four Box order, and $10.00 for every Baby Humungous Box order. The students will learn leadership and communication skills, as well as how to run a micro-business during the ambassador program.

Owner of Collegiate Storage and Rental, Kevin Curran said, “I believe this program will be valuable to both students and Collegiate because it gives students the opportunity to make some cash during the school year, and it gives us a chance to get to know students with leadership skills. It will also teach students how to communicate about services, a valuable experience as they near graduation.”
