Tabatha Coffey had a tough business to tackle to conclude Tabatha Takes Over season 4. In episode 12 that concluded last night, she had to tackle a new business – a bed and breakfast when she visited Cinema Suites.

Cinema Suites is a Big City Bed & Breakfast business. Located centrally in Long Beach, CA, you are minutes away from Beverly Hills, Hollywood, and Downtown Los Angeles. With such a great location and a great business idea, one would never think this business was sinking.

Cinema Suites was facing tough times because of their owner/founder – Dianne Bennett. She was more focused on going out to Hollywood events than her business. When you are in the hospitality business, you have to ensure you serve your clients well, but that wasn’t happening here. Thus they needed some help and it was answered when Tabatha Takes Over visited them during the final episode of season 4.

Dianne had worked as a music gossip columnist for a leading trade newspaper. But that Hollywood style was sorely lacking in her bed and breakfast, as Tabatha discovered when she checked in for the night and felt like she was tiptoeing around grandma’s house.

To make matters worse, this B&B did not serve breakfast. Dianne seemed more concerned with her social calendar than saving her failing business, which is also her home!

When Tabatha entered this B&B, she made Dianne realize that she needs to focus more on her guests’ experience than her own Hollywood nightlife in time to save her livelihood.

To help Dianne bond with her team and to help her re-invent the leader in her, Tabatha took the entire team for a camping session. Everyone seemed to enjoy this team outing except for Dianne who was not willing to listen to any of Tabatha’s wisdom.

I’m sure Tabatha must have been frustrated at this B&B but thinking that this was the last episode of Tabatha Takes Over season 4, she somehow decided to help this failing business. In fact, she stayed the night at Cinema Suites, which was not a thrilling experience for her due to the not functional armoir, and the dirty towels.

In the end Tabatha brought some Hollywood glam to this B&B and helped Dianne to tackle her business in a better way.

If you’ve been regularly following Tabatha Takes Over Season 4, you must have enjoyed watching this week’s episode. It was full of drama, that saw a foreclosure scare for the salon owner, a visit to a dance class and an awful roach-infested water cooler.

During episode 11, Tabatha Coffey visited Salon Deco in Atlanta. This salon is owned by Kim Krohn who was labelled as an absentee owner because she never spent any time in the salon with her staff or customers.

Her “I don’t care” attitude had poisoned her staff and left her salon rudderless. Even though her house was in foreclosure, Kim barely spent time in her failing salon, and her staff had checked out too. This is where Tabatha Takes Over came to help Kim take control of her business.

When Tabatha tried to show Kim that she needs to be present because actions speak louder than words, Kim was resistant to stepping up. This attitude frustrated Tabatha and she actually walked out on Kim and advised her to sell her salon off. A bit-hesitant Kim went after Tabatha to try and convince her to stay and she eventually agreed.

To build a good teamwork, Tabatha took entire staff of Salon Deco to a dance class where she asked Kim to be their leader. Everyone practiced some moves (including Tabatha) and enjoyed this much needed team building exercise.

While back at salon, Tabatha asked Kim to get rid of Salon Deco’s water cooler. Why? Because there were roaches living in it. And that people were still drinking from it. Ewww!

Eventually Kim nailed this roach-infested water cooler and Tabatha gave a new look to Salon Deco to transform it into a work of art.
