Title: Growing Through COVID-19: Thriving in a Pandemic
1Growing Through COVID-19 Thriving in a Pandemic
- It has been a challenging time for small
businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic. While
some businesses are fortunate enough to survive
and keep offering their services and products,
other businesses are forced to close their doors.
In the midst of these unprecedented times,
petNmind has managed to thrive and continue to
conduct business. For most businesses, the key to
survival is maintaining enough cash to stay
afloat until the economy begins to spring back to
life, but for petNmind, their ability to stay
afloat is more than money, it is the loyal
customers that have been going to petNmind for
their pet food and products for years. That is
the life line of petNminds business, people who
really care about their pets will always be
looking to buy pet products for their animal
companions, and petNmind is here to stay.
2Delivering to Customers/Curbside Pickup
- In adherence to social distancing guidelines,
petNmind has shifted their business model to
offer curbside pickup and prioritize online
orders, which means delivering to consumers is in
more demand than ever before. Customers can call
ahead to pay, and a petNmind employee will be
there to hand over the product to the customer
from the convenience of their car.
3Beating COVID-19
- The COVID-19 pandemic has forced most businesses
to focus on survival, re-tooling business plans,
business models, and keeping cultures intact when
everyone is sheltered at home. Keeping existing
customers may be a priority over getting new
ones, so even extensive advertising may be put on
hold to cut costs. But for petNmind, this crisis
has presented an opportunity for growth and
future business. PetNmind has used the COVID-19
pandemic as a leveraging tool to prove to
customers that they are an essential business.
One of the ways they have done this is by
continuing to stay open, delivering essential pet
food, and staying engaged with customers via
social media.
4Being able to Adapt
- In times of economic hardship or even in the
midst of a pandemic, businesses will have to be
able to adapt during uncertain times and petNmind
knows this very well. At the very start of the
pandemic, petNmind employees opted not to work
for their own safety and this took a toll on the
petNmind business. With a shortage of staff,
operating the petNmind business has been a
challenge for Adrian.
5Giving Back
- PetNmind cares about their customers and even
offered discounts to longtime customers who have
had their employment paused. In addition, the
business has also donated pet food to customers
who absolutely could not pay. These charitable
acts of kindness goes a long way, especially in
business. When customers begin to see a business
respond to their needs, they feel that the
business cares about their financial situation
and this has tremendous impact on consumers. When
things start to normalize and business goes back
to usual, customers will be reminded of those
charitable acts and will likely recommend
petNmind to their friends and family. This is a
sustainable way in expanding a customer-base
because word-of-mouth can be a very powerful to
get recommendations and to increase sales.
