- Call your utility providers to let them know your business is impacted
Don't give up hope
- Keep pushing your message on social media
- Cut where you can - Like reduce trash pickup from daily to weekly
- Show compassion by offering free or discounted food to your employees. Or set up notification system to provide updates on unemployment benefits.
