Thinking of Launching a Business in a COVID-19 World? **Attorney Advertising**

Whether it’s due to necessity following the loss of a job, or simply from having extra time to map out a plan while quarantining at home, many people are finding opportunities to launch new businesses that fill essential voids in the marketplace during the current COVID-19 crisis.
Think of all the crafters who have jumped into the new niche of designing custom face masks; Tech-savvy entrepreneurs are now in high demand as “brick and mortar” business owners struggle to use webinar platforms and social media to reach clients who are now spending a lot of their time online; The need for cleaning services is growing as business owners must now rely on people or companies to keep their offices or stores sanitized around-the-clock for everyone’s safety; App developers are furiously pumping out new games and learning tools for kids going stir-crazy at home. After all, inventions happen when someone finds a need that has yet to be fulfilled.
Historically speaking, some of the greatest businesses were launched in times of crisis and financial strain. Extreme pressure and trials have a way of sparking tremendous creativity and ingenuity to deal with the problems we all face. So this pandemic is no exception, and so far there is no shortage of new start-up ideas that have been birthed during the current state we are in.
This pandemic has also caused many people to re-evaluate priorities. Facing the deep realization that life is short and fragile, it’s not a surprise that the coronavirus has given people the push they needed to finally step out and launch a business, develop that invention, or simply go out and pursue their dreams.
