    Digital transformation

    We found a few examples of how traditional business is starting to adapt digital. A few tutorial centers are now exploring online video tutorials, there is no more excuses with the availability of zoom, skype, viber and messenger. Home cooking is now being converted to cloud kitchens.  No need for complicated website setup or an api payment integration, just straight forward online transfer. So imagine if we are to build these ideas into platforms where we can democratize small business without the technical concerns.

    Cashflow is king

    Everyone is affected by the Covid-19 crisis right now whether big or small company. As part of every business, the company’s financials will always plat a vital role running the business. Make sure you have enough cashflow to operate, if you are already running low then do what is necessary to keep the company afloat. As a business owner, you need to be creative at this time, look for assets that you may be able to convert to cash if necessary.

     

    Pivot if necessary

    Business today is not what It used to be, demands are changing fast. Making a pivot for your business does not mean creating a new business, but making a new business model. We have started to see apparels manufacturers now starting to produce face mask as there is great demand right now. There is opportunity in every crisis; we need to strategically pivot business models to met evolving consumer needs.

     

    These are challenging times and there is really no handbook made for this type of situations. What everyone needs to do is adapt to the “new normal”. We will never know until when this pandemic will affect us, that is why we should always be prepared.
