We market via print and digital direct to targeted families in affluent communities. It's a very strong, if not the strongest demographic for a wide range of services and products - that can afford to buy when they choose. There is no silver lining to Covid. It did very measurably increase our audience and the effectiveness of our marketing partners' messages to those families. It has accelerated our business.

Business now has several months of experience operating with the virus. As of now, I predict that national, state and local governments will be writing and rewriting mandates and restrictions on business throughout at least this next year. Creativity will reign. Marketing will need to be even more focused as more and more of your competitors squeeze into the internet to get their messages across. If they aren't coming to you ways will have to be found for you to go to them.

Opportunity. The Great Depression and the Great Recession were learning opportunities. Both caused many businesses to fail. Both caused many businesses to learn, adjust and prosper. The learning part is forced on us. The adjusting part is optional. Overcoming obstacles, i.e. adjusting strategies - trying new things, is both invigorating and brings a measure of excitement to both our work and personal lives.

Your expertise in nutritionally rich meals across a spectrum of illnesses and conditions makes you medically significant. Have you aligned your services with other health care practitioners in a manner that they could and would make their patients or the families of their patients aware of your services? In turn, you will give those practices broader recognition because they are addressing more than just the chemical and surgical solutions. This is a very large group of businesses that can and should refer clients to you. Your service cannot be duplicated by a health food store.
