<\/p>\nWe are living in the era of COVID-19. This year will forever be known worldwide as \u2018the year of coronavirus\u2019.<\/p>\n
However you want to analyze it, it\u2019s a hard time for businesses. Although our government\u2019s instituting measures to help small to medium-sized businesses, most have shut down their operations.<\/p>\n
Even though we may be living a culture of isolation, quarantine, and shutdown right now, businesses shouldn\u2019t discount the opportunity in front of them. With business at a standstill temporarily, now\u2019s the time to plan.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Plan what you\u2019re going to do when things begin to get back to normal. Analyze your business model. Set up your web design. Get your social media accounts ready to unload. Gear up. Prepare yourself. When the societal conditions around COVID-19 in London, Ontario start to calm, it will be on you to jump back into action.<\/p>\n
Like it or not, whatever plans anyone had for 2020 in business are being thrown out the window. There\u2019s uncertainty. With disruption, however, comes opportunity. Some businesses may be phased out, while other companies move in and capitalize. An online presence will be the battlefield. This is how you get your marketing message out. It\u2019s where you connect with new and existing customers.<\/p>\n
Customers can always reach their favourite brands through a website. With web design, even when everything\u2019s shut down, you still have a way to get messages out to customers and reassure them that you still exist and in many cases operate from home office, as New Concept Design is doing. Watch for next blog (in May) to learn how our company operates during the time of coronavirus, but not only.<\/p>\n
Some eCommerce web design sites are still selling product in this time of coronavirus shutdown. That\u2019s because fewer and fewer people are leaving their homes. A virus like this transfers through person-to-person contact. There\u2019s more incentive there to contact businesses online, through smartphones or by email. Do you have a web presence \u2013 if not, consider a London Ontario website design service<\/a> to get you set up with a way to sell more to consumers online.<\/p>\n Whether it\u2019s selling product directly off an eCommerce website or advertising through email, social media, or other forms of digital marketing, an online presence keeps your business going when physical locations are closed or inaccessible. An eCommerce site works by allowing customers to access your products and services online, when they want to, on their laptops, tablets, and smartphones. It\u2019s the most convenient way to shop. Why wouldn\u2019t you want to be included \u2013 your competition likely already is or actively planning to be there.<\/p>\n Technology has progressed to such a wonderful place. Even with coronavirus in London, Ontario, doctors are still able to provide medical services by phone and through videoconferencing. Grocery stores and restaurants are providing ways to put in an order online and have it delivered to your front door. An online presence is keeping our community strong. Having a small business website and being active online, you further integrate into our community.<\/p>\n There are millions of people online right now. More Canadians than ever before. They\u2019re searching for content to connect with and brands that resonate with them. Strengthening your web presence boosts you to where you want to be, keeping you active in the eyes of consumers.<\/p>\n It may be in late spring, early summer, even later in the year, or early 2021 but eventually, business will return. When it does, you\u2019re going to get a different consumer. They will be more likely to shop online. They will be more likely to connect with brands online, seeking their websites, social media, and more.<\/p>\n Set up your web design and online presence in London, Ontario today and you\u2019ll be set for what\u2019s ahead.
