My friends,
Happy Star Wars Day!
So anyway the boss is back, no I don’t mean ‘she who must be..’, I actually mean ‘He who must be …’ PM Boris and I’m really glad he’s okay, like I said I think if anything had happened then it could’ve made a bad situation worse.
So my blog is now fully updated and ongoing, as always a work in progress, but I feel things are progressing well and for the time being at least things are again inching forward. Not sure about you, but I always feel good at the beginning of a new month as it can seem like a new start.
Anyway to get serious here, I’ve had several ‘strange’ conversations this past week and I’d like to know your view regarding it.
Its like this, during lockdown and in our current situation do you think we should continue to do business?
It has been expressed by some that it shouldn’t.
Indeed one person even told me that she thought we shouldn’t even be sending things out in the post, as it puts the poor ‘ol postie at risk.
So the question is…Is it okay to sell online courses and products in general during the global pandemic?
Some believe that during this time, that we should all pull together and offer products for free or at a huge discount, because by doing so that’s the way we will sell something.
I get this argument, as someone who has been affected by this sudden world change.
But here’s my two pence
I personally believe this is wrong and bottom line is that Business should continue after all as you say its money that makes the world go round.
I mean are the utility companies letting you have free or discounted Gas and Electric? Or maybe the supermarkets have slashed all their prices (even though they have no toilet rolls). I believe the answer is no to both
I believe that business should and will continue. The news can give a conflicting story by making it seem the world has come to a STOP. But in actual fact it has not, it is still inching forward albeit at a slower pace for now.
As I said It’s also something I have seemingly found myself when my day job was the first to let me go.
However my inbox tells a different story with every seeming intrepreneur inviting me to a webinar to learn this or other, most of which are good natured and mean well with free or lower priced offers but also some not. I’m still tempted but believe I have enough ongoing right now.
This was a choice now it’s essential, this has proved there is no guarantee about your job/future,
Its been advised that 1 in 10 could be unemployed afterwards.
As for myself, I believe the world is changing, and indeed this has been coming for sometime it just could now be quicker. I have always tried to have a plan B, but obviously didn’t see this crisis coming.
So I have therefore amended my lead offer as needed which obviously provides free information. Reduced my books and ebooks and set out a business plan to ‘bounce’ out the other side.
Some people will buy some won’t but when things improve they may consider it again. The one gift this has given us all is TIME and we should use it well. Do you not agree?
