Tips for Business Continuity:

We know many guidelines and regulations are being passed down that have a big impact on your business. When possible, try to utilize technology to continue business practices. Have virtual meetings with your clients, prospects, and your team to ensure communication is strong. Many employees and business owners have transitioned to working from home, when possible. This can help keep your team in line with the social distancing guidelines. Email, phone calls, and video calls can help you stay in touch. This situation has forced many businesses in the area to get creative. Whether it's offering new or adapted services or shifting gears to become a remote employer, we're excited to see the unique changes you all have made during this time!

Remember, your Lake Area Chamber is here for you and your business during this time of uncertainty. If we can be of assistance, please contact our Lake of the Ozarks chamber today! Our team is working remotely but we're just as dedicated to our members and the Lake of the Ozarks community!
