Have you noticed the shift that’s been happening? Because of the pandemic – and thanks to smartphones and fast internet access – more and more of our interaction is happening online (although it’s been like that for a while now, you just can’t ignore it anymore – it’s a way of life).
This pandemic has been a boon for some businesses and created fresh opportunities for others, even as it’s wrecked entire industries. If you take a close look, you’ll see that the people who are thriving and surviving are the ones who have gone digital.
Here’s the truth: Whether you have a digital business, a brick-and-mortar business, a regular job, or have retired to the beach, you have to take some part in our world’s digital transformation or you’re going to get left behind.
It’s time to pivot, change, level up, transform, adapt, and lean in with the right mindset and a strategy for moving forward.
Check out this episode for stories about people who successfully pivoted their businesses to thrive and survive despite the pandemic, the key to keeping up and leveling up in our digital age, what digital is all about when it comes to business, when to hire someone versus learn how to do it yourself, book launch ideas for the pandemic era, the very first thing you need to do if you’re going to have an internet-based business … and more!
