Small Businesses cannot rely on help but they can make a difference for others


When someone talks about a small business they usually think of the local shop that has the whole family working to put food on the table.  However, a small business depending on the industry can be defined as a business with a maximum of 500 employees.  They are privately owned corporations, partnerships or sole proprietorships that have less revenue than larger businesses.  Small businesses account for more than half of the private GDP and the private sector employment.  The top job provider in the United States is those companies with fewer than ten employees and those with ten or more but fewer than 20 employees comes in second when it comes to the labor force of the United States.

During the overhyped Coronavirus that has scared millions of Americans by our politicians and mainstream media a 2.2 TRILLION PORK FILLED STIMULUS PACKAGE was passed to ease people’s fear and not question the asinine decisions that continue to be made.  Throughout this package, schools with billion dollar endowments, our congress, Indian reservations, community art centers, refuges from other countries have all received billions of tax payer dollars that was intended for small businesses to keep their doors open and their employees on staff until we could return back to some normalcy. 

Many small businesses did not get funding before the Payroll Protection Program hit its $349b limit last week. It capped out because of large public companies taking large chunks of money out of a program that was not intended for them. The program was not intended for them because public companies have better staying power and alternative means of funding that small businesses do not. Meanwhile the small businesses continue to suffer.  Click on this link to see the largest public companies taking payroll loans meant for small businesses.  Several of the companies have market values well in excess of $100 million, including DMC Global, Wave Life Sciences and Fiesta Restaurant Group.  In full disclosure, DeliveryMaxx has been a client of Wells Fargo, and was one of the small companies that they squeezed out from getting any of the funding to help keep their doors open.

However, don’t let your local politicians off the hook.  President Trump passed the buck to the Governors.  The Governors past the buck to the County Judges and the County Judges who don’t even have to have a formal education to rule have made decisions based on an Epidemiologist Neil Ferguson’s Graph that said 2.2 million Americans would die by April 15th.  Of course he based that on 100% of the world would get the virus and it was very deadly.  Facts have not ever and still do not support these claims as he has now revised his predictions to a lower 60,000 Americans.  Even the weatherman have not been this wrong in the past.

DeliveryMaxx understands this all too well.  Founder James Schaefer, developed the Patent-Pending program just over 10 years ago creating an innovative way for companies to easily spread their message to the masses utilizing a mobile app.  He created this company without government loans or private investments.  Utilizing his personal savings, he has poured in millions over the last decade to create a program that will help anyone needing exposure on the web.  In every sense of the word, DeliveryMaxx is a small business with clients in multiple industries and across the country such as Automotive Dealerships, Real-Estate Brokers & Agents, Churches, Service Industry, Sports Teams, Non-Profit Organizations and more; utilizing the Patent-Pending customized social media marketing program to implement a digital strategy that will meet the needs of sales, service and messaging to the masses.

For businesses that are in the same boat as DeliveryMaxx (companies that are trying to survive), you must be willing to see and adapt to today’s environment.  That means with more eyes than ever before looking at the internet for information, your business must have a complete digital strategy that includes positive Online Reputation, stronger SEO, concise Content Management, increase in Social Media Engagement and Advertisement and higher Customer Retention.  To meet these strategies businesses must use Blogs, Reviews, Daily Post, Video Messaging, Automated Follow-Up, Email Blast and Website Development & Optimization.

Make no mistake, the government and mainstream media is not going to worry about you, so you will have to build up your brand and create a loyal customer following.  It will be important for you to stay consistent and vigilant during these tough times.  A couple of things you can do that will help you weather the storm as the local Mayors and County Judges continue to move the goal post:
·         Network.  The more people you meet and learn what they do the more opportunities you might find that your business can perform.

·         Help Others.  There is nothing better when a small business identifies an opportunity to help another small business.  Look for passing on referrals, using that business for a need you might have, consider partnering or trading services with the business.  Talk with your clients as they might be able to help you or vice versa.  Look to your competition.  Together, you might become stronger or have ways to help each other during this time.

·         Be willing to Adapt.  Even when the government runs out of excuses to keep the economy closed, we will never be able to go back to the way things were.  Be sure your business is adapting to the new ways consumers will be shopping or interacting with your business.  You will want to make sure you can operate in a digital world.

·         Show Empathy.  Many people believe everything they have heard on TV.  They are scared of the unknown and instantly feel this virus will kill everyone.  Obviously, this isn’t true, but don’t blame them for being so naïve.  Realize that they really think one might die just by walking outside if that is all they have heard the past 3 to 4 months.  As frustrating as it might be, don’t yell at them because they will argue with emotions and not facts.  Screaming and yelling will not make them understand logic any better and only scare them more.  Understand that others might have something that you take for granted, but to them it is a necessity of life.

·         Continue to Fight.  DeliveryMaxx has taken the position to expose the misinformation our government and mainstream media continues to feed America.  However, we are also providing real solutions and tools to help businesses to not fall into what is looking like being The 2nd Great Depression.  We know how hard you have worked to build a company that provides not only for your family, but also 10 or more other families.  Your voice must be heard, so don’t be afraid to let others know what these decisions are doing to your company.

DeliveryMaxx has been the leader in the digital media arena over the last decade and continues to help businesses in all sectors reach their potential customers through the most innovative digital strategy utilizing common sense and today’s technology.  We are able to customize and create a strategy for any entity that is trying to gain more exposure on the web.

There will be a New Normal and what it looks like is up to You


We will have a New Normal in America.  Despite what many people originally thought when they complied with the “Shelter in Place” Guidelines thinking it was more like a 2-4 week vacation; it will take years for businesses to recover from this devastation.  The longer we sit and do nothing allowing the mainstream media and politicians tell us what to think, the more hardships everyone will start to experience.
At this point in time there are only a few people who are truly trying to seek the truth about if this virus is as deadly as all of the politicians have declared after using the graph that showed 2.2 million people will die from the Coronavirus by April 15, 2020.  By the way, the United States only has 40,565 deaths (this includes the inflated numbers where the medical examiner just listed the cause of death because they suspected the symptoms were related to COVID-19 like the CDC demanded and New York/New Jersey account for 22,500 of the deceased).  Much like the seasonal flu, Americans have the same .00012292 chance of dying from the Coronavirus.  With a little research, logic and common sense, one can find the truth if they wanted to.

The only way a National, State and Local Politician will change their mind and call this seasonal sickness what is and actually stop abusing their power by dictating who can work and who cannot is if they feel like they will win or lose votes.  They understand where their paycheck comes and although they might tell citizens to do one thing while they do another; the thing that means the most to them is their right to work.  So if the citizens all declare that we should open up the economy, then they will change their tune quickly.  However, until then, they are going to sing the same tune.  Fair elections are the only way to take away a politicians job like they have easily done to millions of Americans.

Small businesses will still get overlooked by the big banks, politicians and mainstream media.  They will still have to fight to gain market share.  Even though over 60% of the labor force is directly related to a small business, few will speak up for them as they battle the injustice that has been caused by a seasonal virus that will come back every year.

As America is coming very close to The 2nd Great Depression with unemployment rate nearing the 18% mark having over 22 million losing their jobs in the last 30 days; we can expect a rapid rise in crime rate, suicide, cases of malnutrition, prostitution, alcoholism and drug abuse, out of reach higher education, increased divorce rates and child abuse, higher inflation and overall decline in health.  Many more people will die from these decision that have been based on fear.  I wonder if the nurses who continue to get on social media crying about all of the deaths that they say are happening in the hospitals will do the same thing when it comes to suicide and other causes of a Great Depression? (DeliveryMaxx loves our medical community, but there have been many doctors who have sensationalized these stories to line their pockets since the government is paying $12,000 to $40,000 for each COVID-19 related case.

When you add on the 2.2 Trillion Dollar Pork Filled Stimulus Package that many small business will not receive because it is designed to help large companies and line the pockets of politicians and other leftist entities’;  the will be a New Normal.  There will be a New Normal for how we live our lives as you can see today people will not even look someone in the eye in the grocery store.  There will be a New Normal in business as restaurants will be forced to cut their seating capacity almost half.  There will be a New Normal at sporting events, church, schools and just about everything you can think of.

Therefore, businesses are going to have to utilize a complete Digital Marketing Strategy that includes positive Online Reputation, stronger SEO, concise Content Management, increase in Social Media Engagement and Advertisement and higher Customer Retention.  To meet these strategies businesses must use Blogs, Reviews, Daily Post, Video Messaging, Automated Follow-Up, Email Blast and Website Development & Optimization.  Businesses will need to get creative to find ways of building back what was quickly stolen away over the last 30 days.

It is possible, but you will have to have a plan and that plan must have consistency.

Better to die on your feet, than live on your Knees


President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was once quoted as saying, “We, too, born to freedom, and believing in freedom, are willing to fight to maintain freedom.  We, are all others who believe as deeply as we do, would rather die on our feet than live on our knees.”

As FDR delivered is 20 minute 1,883-word Presidential Inaugural Address after taking the oath of office a month over 87 years ago on March 4, 1933 becoming the 32nd President of the United States of America; he stated, “So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is...fear itself — nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. In every dark hour of our national life a leadership of frankness and of vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves which is essential to victory. And I am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days.”

What a poetic words of wisdom we have to look back on.  Make no mistake, with unemployment nearing the 22 million mark which is almost 14%; businesses are going to need a lot more than rhetoric to keep this country from entering into The 2nd Great Depression.  Businesses are going to have to utilize a complete Digital Marketing Strategy that includes positive Online Reputation, stronger SEO, concise Content Management, increase in Social Media Engagement and Advertisement and higher Customer Retention.  To meet these strategies businesses must use Blogs, Reviews, Daily Post, Video Messaging, Automated Follow-Up, Email Blast and Website Development & Optimization.

Over the next several days, whether the media reports it or not, many business owners and those who have questioned why the government continues to use scare tactics, are taking to the steps of Capitols, County Courthouses and other National, State and Local government buildings to peacefully remind our politicians that they must step up in a time like this to make the right choices. 
The fact still remains that the shutdown of our economy was prompted by the famous “Flatten the Curve” Graph made by Epidemiologist, Neil Ferguson who boldly predicted that the United States would achieve 2.2 million deaths by the middle of April.  Of course the premise of the whole scare was that 100% of the world’s population would become infected with the virus and with a little research one would find that this has never happened in the history of the world.  Nonetheless, the United States has 28,580 deaths that have been attributed to the Coronavirus which accounts for .00008661 of our population.  These numbers include the nearly 4,000 deaths in New York that were not directly confirmed but only suspected as people that might have had symptoms similar to those who have COVID-19.  The numbers have never added up, and “they” continue to move the target each time a new question is asked.

Those who continue to distort the facts are doing it in the name of “science”.  This verse often comes to mind from Romans 8:31- “What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?”

A 2.2 Trillion Dollar Government Pork Filled Stimulus that many small business will not receive is not enough for you to stay open while people have been scared or mandated into hiding much like Germany of 1938.  Businesses must be vigilant in getting their message out to continue to survive.

How to position yourself for the Wreckage in front of you and your Business


There is great news that is not being shared with you on a daily basis!  Before we had more than 50 deaths in the United States, our officials utilized the famous “Flatten the Curve” Graph made by Epidemiologist, Neil Ferguson who boldly predicted that the United States would achieve 2.2 million deaths by the middle of April.  Of course the premise of the whole scare was that 100% of the world’s population would become infected with the virus and with a little research one would find that this has never happened in the history of the world.  Nonetheless, the United States has 28,580 deaths that have been attributed to the Coronavirus.  These numbers include the nearly 4,000 deaths in New York that were not directly confirmed but only suspected as people that might have had symptoms similar to those who have COVID-19.  Not sure why the government would want to promote fear, but we do know that hospitals are getting anywhere from $12,000 to $300,000 from the Federal Government by attributing treatment to the Coronavirus.  Of course, the Centers of Disease and Control (CDC) have recommended these practices.  The great news is that the over inflated death totals account for the virus is .00008661 of our population.  We don’t have thousands of bodies lined up in mass graves as some news organizations have stated.  Hospitals have thousands of unused beds, too many ventilators, and nurses are able to stay at home because there is not enough work coming in to the hospitals due to them turning away needed elected procedures.  Even better, it seems that even while blowhards like New York’s Mayor Andrew Cuomo, Michigan’s Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Dallas County Commissioner Clay Jenkins and many others who continue to spread a false narrative, the death counts for pneumonia, flu and other communicable diseases have seen a drastic drop in the mortality rate.  Some have even heard that Jeffery Epstein’s death might not have even been a suicide from hanging. 

Unfortunately, there will be victims that otherwise could have been saved in 2020!  As we have pointed out over the last several months, the decisions we continued to make would have much more dire consequences on many more Americans.  We predicted that America would be headed into a severe recession and ultimately the 2nd Great Depression if the unconstitutional mandates of businesses not being able to open their doors continued to happen into May.  Since politicians continue to skew numbers to fit their motive and citizens blindly following the sensationalized news trying to hide from a virus that will be seasonal (yes, it will come back just like the flu and common cold); nearly 22 million workers have lost their job.  That is nearly 14% unemployment.  The Great Depression of 1929 had a peak unemployment at 24.9%.   By the way, we remained at 14% unemployment until 1940.  At least our kids will have stories they can tell their grandkids of the hardships today’s decisions have caused.  We also will leave them with a massive amount of debt with the passing of a 2.2 Trillion PORK FILLED STIMULUS PACKAGE.  If we were to pay 1 cent every second for the next 63,418 years we would still owe over 200 Billion Dollars.  This is the tax burden we will be leaving behind.   A Great Depression will bring increased violent & non-violent crime, drug & alcohol addiction, child abuse, marital dissolution, poverty rate and a decline in overall health of many Americans.  Today, depression and suicides are already on the incline.  This is exactly why it is illegal to yell “Fire” in a crowded theater!  There will be more death caused from the panic than if the panic were real in the first place.

It might be a little too late, but there are many who are starting to speak up for justice.  Talks of election and voting out the power hungry corrupt politicians at the national, state and LOCAL levels is gaining traction.  Some people are actually questioning why they overreacted to numbers that never made sense in the first place.  There have been peaceful protest to open up businesses already conducted and planned for the upcoming weeks.  If we do not open up all businesses by May 1st we can count on experiencing The 2nd Great Depression.

For businesses that are in the same boat as DeliveryMaxx (companies that are trying to survive), you must be willing to see and adapt to today’s environment.  That means with more eyes than ever before looking at the internet for information, your business must have a complete digital strategy that includes positive Online Reputation, stronger SEO, concise Content Management, increase in Social Media Engagement and Advertisement and higher Customer Retention.  To meet these strategies businesses must use Blogs, Reviews, Daily Post, Video Messaging, Automated Follow-Up, Email Blast and Website Development & Optimization.
