Watching South Africans band together to rebuild the small businesses that have been hit in the past week has been nothing short of amazing.
Part of having a successful business is in having a community that you can rely on.

1. Build your online community.
A lot of businesses can manage their marketing (with very little cost), by using their social communities. People who use your product and enjoy it are more likely to tell their communities and grow your customer base

[SMEgo @SMEgo_SA]

3. Establish a virtual store
Lockdown has shown us that the days of having a physical location is not always best. Find a way for your customers to buy your product without having to come in store. SO if we ever have another "21 days" (knock on wood), your business is safe.

[SMEgo @SMEgo_SA]

2. Have a customer success team.
Once you have your business online, make sure that you have at least one person manning the pages. Customers LOVE service that is efficient. Having one person dedicated to this task will leave a lasting impression on your customers.

Banks have missed the mark for SME funding. They don't cater to the personality of small businesses.

With SMEgo, our funders are created specifically for SMEs. Find funding through our platform today.
