Here's what I found across 4 meetings:

- Jan 28: initial pricing discussion, three options proposed.
- Feb 3: executive review narrowed it to Options A and B.
- Feb 10: dealer feedback favored Option B.
- Feb 17: final decision to go with Option B at $1,200/room/year.

The team converged on Option B based on dealer feedback.
