How Businesses are Pivoting During COVID-19 Closures

MOD Ventures, LLC — Thu, 14 May 2020 08:00:07 +0000

Many people have had to completely rework how they run their business in light of COVID-19 closures. Businesses that have remained successful during this time are the ones that are pivoting during COVID-19 closures. We truly believe that in order for any business to be successful, they must be willing and able to shift to changing times.

In this episode on pivoting during COVID-19 closures

We hear two businesses we believe did a great job pivoting during COVID-19 closures. Meredith Amadee, who is a wedding and portrait photographer about how stay at home orders have affected her business. She discusses the many ways she has remained present with her social media followers, and even new services she is offering.

You can find Meredith's website here, her Instagram here, and her Facebook page here.

Another company that has done a great job pivoting during COVID-19 closures is Hotel McCoy. Nicole Dahl, creative director of the art hotel, discusses how Hotel McCoy empowered their employees to pitch in on how they think they could most effectively help the community during this time. Even better, they did just that while staying true to their values as a company.

You can find Hotel McCoy on Instagram here, Facebook here, and their website here.
