Having a plan in place in advance will allow your team to focus on strategy and rapid execution of crisis management procedures. These 10 principles will remain consistent through any crisis and will act as your road map as you handle the situation:

Staying Relevant – It Starts With Your Content
As I have watched this crisis unfold, I have been keeping a keen eye on the messaging that has been being pushed out though ads, social posts, and marketing emails (occupational hazard). Watching to see what brands have been quick to respond and which have not.
5 Things to Keep Your Brand Relevant During Difficult Times
It is an understatement to say that these are highly unusual and trying times. Everyone is holding their collective breath to see what happens next.

We want to know how to protect ourselves, what we can and can’t do as part of growing quarantines, what the economy is going to do, and what stores have restocked their shelves with toilet paper.
The Decline of an Iconic Brand
How complacency and a “Maintenance Managed” mentality brought down an industry leader.
The media today is filled with sobering news of the demise or slow deaths of once iconic brand leaders. With names like Blockbuster Video, Borders, Toys R Us, Sears, Kmart, Pier One and even Neiman-Marcus exiting the retail landscape, it illustrates how the way we now buy products has changed the retail sector. The technology market as well, has not gone unaffected. Names like MSN Messenger, Kodak, Polaroid, My Space, Compaq Computer and yes Gateway Computers (who could forget that great packaging) haven fallen to changing buying environments or newer, more innovative answers to customer needs/demands.

I have to admit, the first time I heard it, I reacted negatively and loudly announced "I'm not a Boomer!" (I'm close. But technically, no, I'm not a boomer.) This reaction of course delighted my son and now it is his mantra every time he talks about something I don't understand or every time I talk about something he doesn't understand.
