This has been a crazy few months! Everywhere you turn, more and more small businesses are closing their doors, and the sad reality is that some of these businesses will never reopen.  

In fact, if you’re reading this blog, you may very well be one of those businesses. Maybe you’ve applied for a PPP loan just to keep your business afloat for the next couple of months. But, is that enough? 

Do you wake up and wonder, are they going to reopen businesses next week? If they do, will my customers return? Or will they be afraid to come in for fear of getting sick? 

Have you considered an “online” storefront and quickly dismissed it as “too costly”? 

Have you stopped to consider the hidden costs of not getting online?

If nothing else, COVID-19 has brought these hidden costs to the forefront. Right now, you’re feeling the all to real impact of:

1. lost revenue 

2. ongoing  operating expenses 

   • Rent, 

   • utilities, 

   • debt, 

   • inventory sitting in the back room, or worse yet, in a warehouse, 

   • and possibly retention salaries of your key employees.

If only you’d made that investment in an online storefront 6 months ago. Right now, you could be getting your products out to the public instead of waiting for things to “return to normal”. 

Okay, so you weren’t able to predict the future and you’re trying to figure out “what now?” Is it too late to step into the Ecommerce arena? How do you go about doing that? 

Over the next few days, we’re going to lay out in detail the 6 Steps you need to take now, to move forward:

1. Get online - NOW! 

2. Set up your online store

3. Get your product in front of your consumers! (Digital Marketing)

5. Track & Measure
