If your business has cliff-dived, you’re probably talk to yourself a lot.
I am.
What can I do now?
Pivot the business?
Should I learn something new?
Important questions. Appropriate questions.
But instead of keeping this convo among yourself, what if you asked your community, your tribe?
I’ve noticed some of my friends offering free help/advice over the web.
People can ask questions, and others are chiming in.
Examples:
- I provide tours but obviously that’s dead for now…what can I do?
- I’m really good at cooking and want to start a home show, but how?
- How can I contact businesses focused on solving the Corona situation? Where should I look?
And some great things are happening.
That’s a great idea!! (inspiration)
I never thought of that, Thx!!! (creative thinking)
Speaking to people can be helpful because they have different perspectives on the world. Their views are from different angles.
Don’t forget that you’re part of a community with great people and great ideas. And probably people in similar shoes are you.
And if not, people are very reachable these days…if you try.
Hope you and your family are doing well. Hopefully lockdowns are a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Stay safe and thanks for reading!
