There’s no lockdown for Online Business!
Lockdown is the most widely used word these days. Most of the world is under partial or complete lockdown since March 2020.
The deadly COVID-19 virus has taken thousands of lives and millions are admitted to hospitals. Almost all the businesses have shut down and people are losing millions in sales and many have already asked the Government for help.
The markets are closed, shopping malls now just sell groceries and sanitizers. Resorts and luxury destinations are now emergency quarantine facilities.
No one is allowed to go outside unless you are an essential professional.
On one side, this is the situation, every physical business is suffering but online businesses such as eCommerce, online food delivery, software, and online courses are selling like hotcakes.
Traditional corporate businesses have suffered huge losses and many have closed down their offices or had to lay off their staff to cut losses.
Book publishers Simon & Schuster’s ebook sales have gone up by 13% and that is 50% more than the previous year sales during the same time last year.
WhiteHat Jr an online platform that teaches coding to kids has 200-250% growth in enrollment.
OTT live streaming platforms such as Amazone Prime, Netflix, and Disney+ Hotstar have seen huge growth and almost every movie for the next year is going to release on one of these platforms.
India’s farmers have often relied on traditional means to sell their agriculture produce but since lockdown came into effect, Indian farmers too went high-tech and started selling vegetables and fruits via online platforms such as Facebook and WhatsApp.
Time is changing.
The way people go out of their homes is changing.
The way people do business is changing and those who evolve and adapt to new technologies survive and those who do not will suffer losses.
So, the ball is in your court. Do you want to stick to traditional ways or do you want to adapt, upgrade, and evolve into a success story?
