Brian matters in this story because My Place is moving into its next phase with the Rivett Organization\u2019s broader platform behind it: ownership, operations, construction management, technology, engineering, design, and franchise development. That combination separates My Place from a lot of franchise organizations. Developers aren\u2019t only hearing about a flag. They\u2019re hearing from a company that still owns hotels, operates hotels, develops hotels, and understands the parts of the process that can overwhelm owners and investors. \ud83c\udfe8 My Place Hotels has roughly 125 franchises and is moving into what Ryan called its next phase of growth \ud83d\udee0 The Rivett Organization brings construction management, technology, engineering, and design into the development conversation \ud83d\udccd Ryan sees opportunity in smaller and underserved markets where other brands may miss stability and value \ud83e\udd1d Brian Quinn adds a key commercial engine as My Place takes that platform to market \ud83d\udcc8 Extended stay demand remains strong with consumers and developers, giving the brand a timely growth story This is why I wanted them both in the conversation. Ryan could explain the platform behind My Place, and Brian could speak to how that platform now gets translated into development growth.
