Your Business IS NOT POWERLESS DESPITE OF COVID 19! But this is a great opportunity to adapt to change, to be better, and to level up your old ways.
Change is constant and unending, with change, we grow, and that is the beauty of it! Pandemic does not stop change nor stop us from growing, but it triggers us to double our efforts to adapt to different scenarios, to different seasons – to change… WE THRIVE!
With the Pandemic going on our correct and brave response and quick adaptation to new normal is essential. Don’t get discouraged nor dismay but think of one thing that can help your business keep on running. Remember during the pandemic, limitation is out of the question, and business continuity is what we work on.
FOR THAT WE NEED TO CONVERT our old ways to the new normal way WITH SOMETHING USEFUL during this time or REVERSE THE WHOLE SYSTEM. What do I mean by that?
For example, since the tourism industry and any businesses related to it are being temporarily closed, we can’t just shut down our museums, hotels, resorts, restaurants, and other establishments – without businesses our economy’s vitality is at risk.
Here are some tips that we want to share with you:
1. Find Alternative Ways & Services (Convert Your Services To Something Useful During Pandemic)
Hotels and resorts are shutting down because the tourism industry and businesses connected to leisure are temporarily closed due to a deadly virus. But just like what I said earlier, limitation is out of the question, and business continuity is a must during this time.
Why not offer your facilities as a working extension for different companies who are looking for a place where they can relocate their employees. Companies nowadays are looking for a place where they can set up a temporary office, where employees can work at the same time have a place to stay temporarily, and eat comfortably, avoiding the hustle to commute and avoid the risk to get the virus while traveling.
Start calling your previews and present clients who already conduct their company events on your hotels or resorts. Who knows, many of them are looking for a remote office. But first, make sure you coordinate with LGUs to get permits and make sure to implement strict safety measures.
2. Reverse Your Store System.
If customers can’t come to your store, let your goods be delivered to their doorsteps! For restaurants, boutiques, and other shops, pandemic can’t stop your business operations, though this different season redirects you to something new and might be more effective.
Take advantage of Social Media Platforms popularity
If you are not yet into digital marketing, then this is high time for you to learn and apply it to your business. Make your business more visible to people by taking advantage of Social Media Platforms where millions of consumers visit to socialize and as well as to search and buy essentials and wants.
Run promos, post your best selling goods, and write something that can inspire people, motivation is what people needs during this time.
3. Create Videos With Content That Are Very Useful For Your Audiences
Since everyone are forced to study online during this pandemic, why not make field trips and museums visits becomes digitally too?
Offer your new way of services to schools and organizations ahead of time, be creative, makes digital field trips more fun and exciting as if they are there.
You might think that this is hard, but anyway who said this is easy too? But whatever, once you start, everything will follow. So make sure you let your previews and current customers of your company’s new setup.
Start calling your previews and existing clients whom you have work with and currently working with, to let them know on how they can avail your products or services.
Make sure that you have all the documents that you need, and learn all the new policies that the government implemented for the safety of everyone during pandemic.
Everyone is thriving and trying to adapt to the new normal way of living. Don’t think that people might not spend money to buy what you sell. No one in this world are not looking for a job, or a way of earning in order to buy food, and other essentials.
