A Message from Main Street America for businesses:

As the COVID-19 crisis continues to develop, we’ve gathered some quick tips, ideas, and inspiration to implement while social-distancing or isolating.

  • If your business is staying open, publish your commitment to public health and outline actions for ensuring a clean facility and healthy staff; have hand sanitizer available for customers and latex gloves available for employees
  • Offer digital gift cards that customers can buy now and use later
  • Start, maintain, and enhance business webpages, online shopping opportunities, and social media presence
  • Keep customers updated on new experiences or products you’ll offer when conditions improve
  • Develop customer membership programs, such as “subscribe and save” programs for delivery and pick-up
  • Develop online shopping list services. Offer pick-up or delivery to customers who submit shopping lists online
  • Offer digital services and support to virtually sell, answer questions, and provide customer service
  • Keep it lively! Make videos to promote your business and provide virtual tours of your shop
