Tips To Stay Operational

Consider these tips on how your business can stay operational and “contact-less”.

  • Pickup: Curbside or “contact-less” pickup can be a good way to distribute food without the delivery fees or hassle. Pick-up can be facilitated for large meals or freezer-ready meals customers can store during their time at home, so consider partnering with organizations too. Try promoting this feature on social media.
  • Delivery: More restaurants are opting in to “no-contact” delivery. Among the many delivery options, GrubHub announced they are waiving delivery fees; you can become a GrubHub partner to access fee-free delivery here.
  • Gift Cards: Consumers have demonstrated an interest in buying gift cards at local businesses to support them during closures and quarantine. Offering full-price or discounted gift cards can provide a way for loyal customers to support you. Supportrestaurants.org has launched a “dining bonds” program — learn how to participate here. If you are a Square customer, you can use the platform to create digital gift cards. Kabbage also launched a free gift card portal with immediate access to earnings here. Social media can be a powerful way to share offers.
  • Merchandise: Similar to gift cards, selling merchandise online such as hats, shirts, pins, bottle openers, etc. can be a great way to generate customer support. Should delivery not be an option, merchandise might be “pre-ordered” to be reserved for pickup at a later date.
  • At Home Tutorials: Many businesses are offering live stream classes and sessions at discounted rates (such as $6 yoga classes via live stream or a $50 week-long cooking class subscription). Consider ways to bring your business experience into the home using video conferencing tools.
