Paul reflects on the past 6 months and what has happened in the world of business since he last spoke about COVID back in March. He talks about what’s changed, how businesses have had to adapt and what he thinks the future holds. Tune in today to find out what you should be doing now and what you need to be doing next! 



KEY TAKEAWAYS

COVID-19 has changed the business landscape in a very short amount of time. There have been many policies introduced across the past six months, it’s been a very confusing time and you really need to keep on top of all of this to keep your business safe. Remember that some policies are only short term, for example you will need to pay furloughed staff when they are back and loans will need to be paid back – it’s not ‘free money’. So many jobs are going to be lost and businesses will go bust when all of these situation come to a head. So many of us rely on systems and processes that are very office based. You may need a shift in policy to make working from home work. Particularly in terms of productivity! You need to be able to pivot and change the way you do things in your business – if you haven’t done that yet you need to focus on this NOW in order to survive. Now is the time to start a new business, it’s the time to scale and grow in a controlled and measured way.




BEST MOMENTS

“It’s not playground money that can just be taken and spent on whatever you want”

 

“Those that pivot and adapt quickly and adapt to the environment and adapt to the commercial reality of doing business will succeed”

 

“You need to see this as the biggest opportunity in your generation”
