Tips for Starting a Business During COVID-19
Leverage Technology In Your Favor
It is crucial that any new business starting during the pandemic leverages technology to its maximum benefit. More than ever customers are open to using new apps, new methods of communication, and online service options. Conduct in-depth research to choose the technology that best fits your target market and showcases your business in the best light possible. Be sure any technology you utilize is secure, easy to use, and your staff is well-trained on how to use it.
Put Safety First
Putting customer and employee safety first is absolutely non-negotiable during COVID-19. Yes, it does have a monetary cost, but it is worth it. Investing in masks, gloves, sanitizing products, and virtual communication software is a necessary cost of doing business right now. Not only does is send a message that you care and are responsible, but it can also help protect you from potential litigation if a customer or team member were to become ill.
Amend Company Policies & Contracts As Needed
Flexibility and thoroughness is imperative during times like these. In some situations, you may consider amending policies and contracts to accommodate for the current condition when it relates to the pandemic. Considering the severity of the current health crisis, it is probably a good idea to have a qualified corporate attorney review your policies and contracts to ensure they cover all the bases.
