COVID-Resistant Businesses

1 min read What are the COVID-resistant businesses?

As businesses continue to close and others face uncertainty many startups find themselves wondering how they will stay afloat.

One of the biggest steps a company can take to ensure they are among the COVID-resistant businesses is to reassess their financial projections.

For many startups, this should be the first step in ensuring the company stays alive.

It’s essential to look at expenses from the bottom up to see what waste you can get rid of and how you can do things more efficiently.

While many startups are already running lean, it is important to look at ways to run even leaner.
