The lights are turning on. The chairs are being flipped upright. The kegs are being tapped. Businesses are reopening their doors. Welcome back!
After months of unprecedented lock-downs, many states have begun to see the light at the end of the tunnel. The list of states easing restrictions is growing by the week, bringing a sigh of relief to those clinging to any sign of return to normalcy.
But much of the impact has already been felt. Many businesses are looking for any cost saving strategy they can find; from limiting menus to cutting back on employees. As we all try to find our footing during this pandemic, what are some tactics businesses can do right now to save money? We break down how with Atmosphere’s free service, businesses can cut costs in more ways than one.
Cut The Cord
It’s not a secret, people everywhere are looking for any way to save money during this time. One of the first things to go? Cable. The cord cutting trend has been seeing a steady uptick for years. Households cutting cable can save on average $1200 a year. For businesses, it could be double that. “When restaurants and bars begin to reopen, cutting the cord is the easiest way to offset lost revenue and reduce operating costs while also meeting the demands of their customers.” said David Wiesenfeld, chief strategist at Tru Optik.
