Starting a Business in the Post Pandemic World | How Virtual Offices Help Small Businesses | Virtual Office Jakarta

2020 was definitely an interesting year for everyone. Due to the Covid -19 pandemic, a significant percentage of the world workforce were forced to work from home. Many people have also unfortunately lost their jobs due to the economic uncertainties caused by the pandemic; many fresh graduates also found it impossible to find jobs. This situation forced many businesses to adopt creative methods and have also pushed many people onto the path of entrepreneurship in order to survive through tough times.  

Here are some business trends in Indonesia that we saw during the pandemic:  

1. Growth in Home-Based F&B Businesses  

One of the biggest things we saw during the pandemic is the sheer amount of home cooks selling their homemade dishes online!  With the extra time they have in their hands, many people have started selling their homemade goods online to help survive these tough times. We are suddenly seeing uncles, aunties, moms and even grandmas joining this entrepreneurship wave!  

2. Traditional Businesses are Innovating! 

Many traditional businesses are left with no choice but to innovate and adapt to keep serving their customers during these tough times. To help support social distancing measures, many local stores (e.g. local grocery stores) started providing online ordering and home delivery services.  Some restaurants also provide home dining services, where they would loan your cutleries and even their waiters to recreate the restaurant dining experience. Singapore Airlines went as far as hosting fine dining dinners in their grounded aircrafts!

3. Digital Agencies  

Since many businesses turn to online touchpoints to remain engaged with their customers, many turn to Digital Agencies to further improve their engagement levels with their customers. Some digital agencies to even provided “startup friendly” packages to help these new entrepreneurs kickstart their new businesses with new branding identities.
