The world is going through a period of minimal activity, with most nations having lockdowns partially or completely. As an entrepreneur or marketer, you should take this opportunity to think and strategize abut how you can grow your business and stay ahead of the competition, once the lockdown ends – after all, this situation will not last forever.
Even if your business is not operational currently, you can build rapport with your customers, keep them interested, and be in their minds. You can run fun contests, ask them to do video reviews, upload demo videos, and any other way you can think of, to stay connected with them. You can also ask if any of your customers are stuck somewhere, and lack for essentials, and get in touch with help groups or officials to get stuff delivered to them

Lead generation is critical for every business. This is a great time to get new leads, as most people are free and sitting at home. It’s easy for them to click on ads and submit their contact information – but they will do it only if they are getting something interesting in return. Offer them tidbits like a free download, discount coupons, webinars, and so on.
