A friend of ours was looking for a birthday gift for her teenage daughter.

Amazon was backed up in deliveries.

She found what she was looking for on a local shop’s web site and was promised 3-day delivery. It arrived as promised.

That’s an innovative shop owner.

A local restaurant owner has been delivering meals to customers’ homes. He has found that some menu items don’t travel well. The steam in the box makes breaded dishes like onion rings soggy and unappetizing. He took them off his online menu.

That’s an innovative restaurant owner.

We read about a hotel owner with empty rooms who turned to local officials. He offered rooms for those who needed to be quarantined but could not do it at home. He turned a disaster into a profitable offer.

That’s an innovative hotel owner.

Now let’s talk about you, your business, your products and services.

You are as smart as these people or you would not have survived long in business.

What can you and your people do to innovate and turn this into a profit?
