Surviving COVID - 19 Scott M Annes

Are you sick of COVID - 19 as opposed to being merely sick from it? Who isn't? Less than half of 2020 is over and yet it feels as if we have lived through a decade since New Year's Day. The world was a whole lot different back in January of 2020. Chances are that your business was a whole lot different then. Perhaps you were banking on 2020 being a breakout year for your little enterprise. Maybe this was to be "that year" that you would look back on and say, "that was when it all came together and I really enjoyed success!"And then . . . . A virus came along that was no big deal at first. One if by land and two if by cruise ship, it invaded our shores and made us very conscious of it very quickly Before anyone knew what we were doing, our local leaders raced to close down our businesses and sent us home to sulk about it. Businesspeople were afforded the rare opportunity to sit in a perpetual state of mutual devastation with our fellow businesspeople. And now . . . Supposedly we have made a turn but our leaders still reserve some ambiguous alleged authority to close us in the future if the virus returns to form. Businesses that were unprepared to close for 2-3 months are now supposed to open in limited capacity and resume operations despite what in any other time would have been a mortal wound. Good luck with that!Surviving COVID-19: A Guide for Small Businesses provides the same satire, humor, commentary and homespun wisdom Scott Annes has been imparting on businesspeople for decades. He has assembled twelve strategies to help businesspeople cope, endure and hopefully thrive again in the aftermath of an unprecedented economic shutdown. As with his other books, Surviving COVID-19 is intended to lend perspective to entrepreneurs who could use some. As you get back on your feet, you will laugh, you will cry and you might just might just someday say: "2020, that was the year it all came apart and somehow I kept it together!"
