As a result of our team excellence, we were able to drives sales immensely. Together with all of my employees, we turned a $19,000 a week sales store into a million dollar store the first year and every year after. My store sold the most coffee machines in Houston and were rewarded with exclusive Starbucks hats displaying our accomplishment. This was a great accomplishment, given our store was located in an office building with no visibility or drive through, only 10 employees and only open Monday through Friday from 5am to 6pm.
