You’ve got time to work on your business, so when you’re able to resume business as usual, you come back stronger than ever. Your online presence has just jumped up to being the most important part of your business (if it wasn’t already), so here are our top ways to work on your business during this Covid-19 pandemic..

Now is not the time to be pulling back when it comes to your social media presence. According to Kantar social media engagement during the covid-19 pandemic has leaped up by over 61%. In this time of thriving social platforms, you should make sure your business is one of the businesses not just adding to the noise but standing out. Share joy-sparking content regularly, post stories or challenges that encourage engagement, or find and hire a digital marketing company to keep your social media posts exciting and consistent.
Regular (but not abrasive) email marketing will keep at the top of mind for your leads and past customers. Make sure your emails are providing something for those who open them. Use your email blasts as an opportunity to share or repurpose (useful and relevant) old content, send good news blasts, or personal business updates to keep your community up to date with how your business is faring.
