19 Mar 2020
This episode is going to a be a little bit different, however I wanted to address the situation at hand. Things have been a little overwhelming and the world is now in a very strange and unique place. Although I don’t usually post episodes midweek, I wanted to have a chance to talk about what is going on and my thoughts surrounding the current situation. I’m also going to touch on a few personal tips when it comes to responding to adverse situations as a business.KEY TAKEAWAYS COVERED IN THE PODCASTIt’s important to mention that I batch content and in future episodes that I have going live over the next couple of weeks, there is no mention of Covid19, because at the time we didn’t know what was going to happen.Try to step away from your news feed as often as you possibly can. Although you can’t ignore it, spending your whole day looking at what is going on is going to have a negative effect on your mental health.Working on what you’re grateful for is a great way to help when there’s a lot of negativity around.Stay as routine as you possibly can, especially with the things that you can control. Wake up at the same time, eat dinner at the same time etc.In times of panic, people will turn to those that appear to be steady.Be gracious and gentle with people that may be struggling, especially when it comes to their business.You have to do what is right for your business in times of adversity.We don’t know how long this is going to last and when we return to a state of normality, you’re still going to need to run your business. Although you may not want to launch anything brand new during this time, you still need to think about how you’re going to maintain aspects of your business.Are there things you can be doing in your business that could help you in the future? Whether that means working on your SEO or scheduling your social media content in advance.If you are scheduling social media content, you may want to schedule it for a couple of months in advance, rather than straight away.Supporting your community around you is important.If you are running an ad or a campaign that you cannot change, don’t take your results too seriously. The world is in a completely different place right now and you can’t take things as read.Find new and creative ways that you can turn up for your customers.THE ONE THING YOU NEED TO REMEMBER ABOVE ALL ELSE…Remember to take care of yourself as much as you possibly can. Your health is incredibly important.HIGHLIGHTS YOU SIMPLY CAN'T MISSMindfulness in Adversity – 04:20Your Business in Adversity – 09:30Transcript below Hello and welcome to this slightly different and unique episode of the podcast. Now you're probably wondering why am I releasing an episode midway through a week when normally every Monday is when you get to hear from me. Well this week I guess is a little bit different and I thought it was probably best if I come on here and have a really quick chat with you guys just to kind of give you a bit of a heads up in terms of a few thoughts I'm having and also in terms of things that I think might help you.
