With increased vaccine accessibility, a decreased transmission level and the end of Utah's mask mandate, it seems like there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Today's business environment and what the future holds for us is unique and uncertain. But regardless of how your company weathered the storm during the past year, there are things you can do right now to retain existing customers, find new customers to grow your market share and employ strategies designed to help you safely pivot into new offerings.
In our
last Professional Development Series presentation, we discussed what happened during the pandemic and how Utah businesses were impacted by it. We also touched on some strategies that companies employed to keep their clients, build their customer base and pivot into new offerings.
The next presentation will focus on real Utah companies and the ideas, techniques and strategies they used to sustain business and adapt for survival.
Takeaway: New ideas, techniques, strategies and secret weapons that will empower you to attract your audiences as our economy rebounds.
