Marketing Shift During COVID-19

A pandemic is here, and business as we know it has shifted indefinitely. And while we’ve seen the unfortunate crumble of many businesses during this economic downturn, we’ve also seen businesses thrive. I’m not just talking about major corporations that have the revolving credit to get through these hardships – I’m talking about small, boutique businesses that are taking the bull by the horns and charging into this season with no fear.

What is the difference between the small businesses that succeed and those that don’t? It’s simple – mindset.

The businesses that thrive during this season are the ones that have intentionally shifted their marketing strategy to meet the needs of their customers right where they are. Those are the businesses that will be remembered for what they did during this season.
