Business in the Covid era<br />

Afterthinking it was ayear like no other<br />

last yearwith the first lockdown, we are all<br />

now reliving the impacts of our business<br />

beinglockeddown and whatthat means<br />

for us.<br />

Is thisthe new normal?<br />

Rather than trying to answer this by<br />

looking longinglyinto your crystal ball, it is<br />

afar better idea to plan as if it is, or at least<br />

that it is likelytohappen again.<br />

We cannot as businesspeoplecontinue<br />

to expect the government to solveour<br />

problems.<br />

Support packages will never be of a<br />

valuetosustain your business long term.<br />

So, whatdowedo?<br />

We needtouse the time available while<br />

we can trade in amore normal capacity, to<br />

plan how we can besttrade under the<br />

various lockdown situations.<br />

Or at least how we can minimise the<br />

“bleeding” or lossesthat we experience<br />

during those times.<br />

We hereatProsser Quirke realise that<br />

theseplans will be different for every<br />

business, but we also are very lucky to be<br />

in the position to be helping many<br />

businessesacrossabroad range of<br />

industries.<br />

We see what others are doing or<br />

planning, along withwhat has workedand<br />

what hasn’t, and we can use this<br />

knowledge to help make suggestions.<br />

As business owners, it is our choices that<br />

shape the future of our businesses.<br />

You can choose to planand prepare for<br />

further disruptions, or you canchoose to<br />

do nothing and be at the mercy of others<br />

makingdecisions.<br />

There is no doubt that further<br />

disruptionscould happen, and that they<br />

will be difficult. If you want to give yourself<br />

and your business the bestchance of<br />

getting through the difficulttimes, and you<br />

are having difficulty gettingstarted,or<br />

would like some help, give us acall. We<br />

love helping our clients as best we can.<br />

Take care and let’ssupport eachother<br />

locally wherever we can, we are all in this<br />

together.<br />
