      Advice for startups damaged by the epidemic. Can you think of a way to survive by adapting to the new conditions instead of merely enduring them? Enduring will suffice, but if you adapt you could end up net stronger.

      If you can think of something new you can do that people need now, it may not only help you scrape by, but will also help all those people.

          This reminded me of the fidget spinner. When it was made, people purchased and manufactured millions of units, now they're sitting in warehouses unwanted. Realistically, this is not lasting forever, so tailoring a startup for current conditions might not live after in my opinion.

          Try the cheap solutions first. Especially since those will probably be quick to build.
