How Businesses Emerged During the Pandemic

           The COVID-19 pandemic took a major toll on every aspect of our lives. From a health crisis, it quickly proceeded into an economic crisis, which affected a variety of businesses. As these changes remain constant, business owners have found ways to adjust to the change in order to keep their businesses relevant.

Rising Above the Pandemic

           One way that elevated small businesses despite the pandemic, is going digital. Using various internet tools, it made it easier for customers to support local businesses. Some traditional entrepreneurs may have been hesitant to do this step at first. However, these companies have now learned how to adapt and cope. They continue to advance by using modern technology for their businesses’ growth. A clever move made by entrepreneurs is to utilize an array of social media platform to market their businesses. Due to the fast-paced realities of the pandemic, entrepreneurs and business owners must keep track of how they can remain competitive in the industry.

           It’s undeniable that while these businesses stay open, significant challenges remain. A research from UC Berkeley, Department of Economics, indicates that the impact on small businesses around the world is likely to be severe. Due to the lack of “timely business-level data” from the government, small business owners and entrepreneurs had difficulty adjusting to the restrictions during the early stages of the pandemic. Meanwhile, another study was conducted by the Department of Economics of the University of Illinois. This study states that the impacts of the pandemic of small business’ varied across industries. Some industries were able to progress forward, while some reported employment declination for more than 50%.
