They were poised to succeed because people could continue to buy during a quarantine. They are hiring massive amounts of new employees and their sales will be climbing for years.<\/p>\n<p>This is how we must adapt. We must have new ways to find, engage, and develop new clients in ways that we may have never leveraged fully, or at all. <\/p>\n<p>How can we use the power of the internet and social platforms to continue operations and grow our sales?<\/p>\n<p>Personally, I started reaching out more on my social channels. I created daily Facebook Live episodes, wrote more articles on LinkedIn about the new economy ahead of us, and posted so much more \u201cmicro content\u201d on all my social channels.<\/p>\n<p>My engagement exploded. Of course, almost everyone was home. But, I was offering real value and insights. The type that people needed to hear during this time of crises.<\/p>\n<p>I became a media outlet. And this is the future for any smart business \u2013 YOU MUST BECOME THE MEDIA FOR WHAT YOU SELL AND REPRESENT.<\/p>\n<p>There is no branding without branded content. <\/p>\n<p>A New Era Will Require New Skill Sets<\/p>\n<p>To win in the forthcoming economy, you will have to learn new skills, know-how, systems, and marketing strategies.<\/p>\n<p>Those who learn and adapt rapidly, will win. Those who don\u2019t, will BK.<\/p>\n<p>The shark has adapted for millions of years. The Dodo Bird is extinct. Regardless of the causes and circumstances, you will either adapt like a shark or you will go extinct like the Dodo.<\/p>\n<p>Nature selects out the weak and removes them. Welcome to Earth.<\/p>\n<p>For those with the will to survive, who have the Eye of The Tiger, there is a chance. But, those who possess that willpower will not whine or object to how \u201chard it is\u201d to learn new skills and technologies.<\/p>\n<p>I Adapted In 2007<\/p>\n<p>After the economic collapse from the Great Recession, I came to two conclusions:<\/p>\n<p>I need to be ready for anything.<br \/>I need to learn social media and content marketing. <\/p>\n<p>In 2007, companies like Facebook, YouTube and Twitter were just emerging. I knew that these offered alternative marketing opportunities for money-strapped businesses and entrepreneurs. <\/p>\n<p>Blogging was the new form of journalism. And so I started writing blog posts.<\/p>\n<p>I went to work for a web design and internet marketing company in 2007, to learn from those that adapted early and were winning. And I\u2019ve never looked back since.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, I have written three books on the subject. Check Amazon and Kindle for two of those titles. As well, I have given hundreds of workshops on these subjects, written hundreds of articles, and have appeared as guests on multiple blogs, podcasts, and vlogs.<\/p>\n<p>I teach people who to win, at a level of execution that they can actually perform and win at. <\/p>\n<p>If you need help to adapt to this new reality, please feel free to reach out to me. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wG3tBSt_66I\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- adman_adcode_after --><\/p>\n<p class=\"dpsp-share-text\">Sharing is caring!<\/p>\n<p class=\"gasd_author\"><a href=\"https:\/\/etrafficlane.com\/newline\/about-me\" rel=\"author\" title=\"Profile for Dalelorenzo Johnson\">Profile for Dalelorenzo Johnson<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/etrafficlane.com\/newline\/how-to-survive-in-business-during-a-recession-or-depression\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Find me at https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/edwindearborn\/ How To Survive In Business During a Recession or Depression Social Distancing Proved The Powerful Need for Social Marketing Amazon is [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-252232","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/252232","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=252232"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/252232\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=252232"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=252232"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.etrafficlane.com\/60dollarmiracle\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=252232"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
