> *Ideas*:
>
>    - Encourage community members to buy gift certificates at local
>    restaurants to be used later in the year
>    - Help restaurants connect to food delivery services or more take-out
>    options
>    - Yoga studios doing videoconference sessions
>    - Retail businesses enhancing their online shopping experience. or
>    finally getting moving on creating one
>    - Small-Medium businesses intensifying their social media presence
>    - Offer facetime, skype, or chat channel services for selling
>    virtually face-to-face, answering questions, providing the same customer
>    service interaction you would get in a M&P atmosphere at location
>    - When people work remotely, they are more susceptible to online
>    shopping, checking in with social media more often, ect. Encourage
>    businesses to take advantage of this.
>    - Develop a cleaning protocol w/a local cleaning service and go out
>    one-on-one to businesses; develop a pledge “Downtown Cares About Your
>    Health” with on-site messaging available to promote enhanced cleaning and
>    other measures
>    - Encourage businesses to publish their commitment to public health,
>    outlining their actions for offering a clean facility and healthy staff
>    - Keep customers updated on new experiences or products you'll offer
>    when things subside
>    - Coffee shops who roast  can set up a customer membership for
>    "subscribe & save" delivery or pick-up of beans, get people to order for
>    the next couple weeks
>    - Small grocers can offer to receive online grocery lists and shop for
>    their customers to pick-up products or deliver them
>    - Promote the value and reliability of locally sourced and local
>    supply chains
>    - Stay in touch with customers by livestreaming. Show what you are
>    doing to stay in business and get excited about the strategies you've come
>    up with to meet customer needs during this time. Ex: Coffee shop that
>    welcome people to connect with them every morning at 8am for the local news
>    downtown, the local history story of the morning, the morning joke, or a
>    meet your barista spotlight, etc.
>    - Look into business interruption insurance
>    - Local physicians to offer telemedicine services
>    - Breweries can keep offering trivia nights by livestreaming and using
>    an app that polls people's responses, customers being encouraged to drink
>    their brews while participating or getting extra points for posting a
>    picture of them and their brews at home.
