The SNOWSTORM That EXPOSED Our Business Weaknesses
We faced the biggest snowstorm since 2009, with temperatures plummeting to -20°F. Our hotel lost power, half of our rooms had no heat, and contractors couldn’t reach the site. This could have cost us hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages, lost customers, and negative reviews. Without micromanagement or scrambling, our team took the initiative, solved the problem, and got the hotel back up and running—all without us even being involved.💬 If you want to build a self-sufficient team and prevent business disasters, this video is a must-watch!
