Businesses close their doors for any number of reasons. Recently, the pandemic was one of those reasons, and countless businesses shut their doors. Thankfully, many are now opening again as customers are ready to get out of their homes. In this article, we\u2019ll discuss five creative ways to communicate your business re-opening. Get the word out and start growing your business again.<\/p>\n

Everything Starts With a Plan<\/h2>\n

Ask yourself a few questions as you plan your business re-opening. Here are five ideas to get you started:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Has the business changed, or will previous customers find everything the same?<\/li>\n
  2. Are there special health and safety requirements as customers enter your business?<\/li>\n
  3. Does the business have an online presence, storefront, or both?<\/li>\n
  4. What\u2019s your preferred way of marketing?<\/li>\n
  5. Do you feel your old ways didn\u2019t work well and you need new, creative ideas to get the word out?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    As you answer these questions are answered, you\u2019ll get a clear idea of the necessary information customers need.<\/p>\n

    Update Your Website<\/h2>\n

    When doors close, websites are stagnant. One of the most important ways to communicate your business re-opening is to breathe new life into your website.<\/p>\n

    If websites are outdated and have no new information, they\u2019ll turn away customers, who\u2019ll assume nothing new is going on with the business. They\u2019ll feel dismissed and ignored. Websites are for the customer\u2014so show your customers that you care by using the website to your full advantage.<\/p>\n

    Blast the Re-Opening on Social Media<\/h2>\n

    If you weren\u2019t on social media before, it\u2019s time to get on it for the sake of your re-opening. Most people are on social media and customers expect to see your business as they scroll through the latest posts.<\/p>\n

    Social media is free advertising. Post about your business re-opening every day. Ask friends to share with their friends. All it takes is a click or two and people you\u2019ve never met will see the news about your re-opening.<\/p>\n

    Creative Business Cards<\/h2>\n

    Now that your business is re-opening, hand out business cards to let others know you\u2019re coming back. Business cards come in many styles, so make yours unique. Include all information necessary so customers see your brand, know how to communicate with you, and understand what service you offer.<\/p>\n

    Text Previous Customers<\/h2>\n

    When the doors were open in the past, you offered ways for customers to sign up with their contact information. Shoot a quick text to all those numbers you have and get your customers excited.<\/p>\n

    As you re-open your business, remember to address their concerns. Include safety measures you\u2019ve implemented so they know you care that everyone is safe. Let them know the re-opening was well thought out and you\u2019re ready to serve them with enthusiasm.<\/p>\n

    At Silk Cards, we understand the special needs a business re-opening has and how important that communication is. We offer unique business card options, such as die-cut cards<\/a>, to help your business stand out no matter what stage it\u2019s in.
