The Quickest COVID Pivot I’ve Ever Witnessed

I have a neighbor who used to own a hotpot restaurant.

If you don’t know, in a hotpot restaurant, you’re served raw food that you cook in a simmering pot of soup, and once it’s finished cooking, you simply eat the food.

I only ate there once with my family, and it was a good experience.

I specifically remember the waiter who served our table. He interacted with us with bare minimum enthusiasm. But once he saw the owner sit down and started talking to us, all of a sudden, the waiter upped his enthusiasm three-fold.

I thought that was a funny moment, but let’s get back on track.

Unfortunately, when COVID hit, he had to put the entire operation to a halt. Even when outdoor dining was allowed, he couldn’t do anything because he didn’t have much outdoor space to work with.

So what did he do?

He pivoted and turned his hotpot restaurant into a noodle restaurant. That way, he can offer takeout and delivery.

In my opinion, that’s some quick thinking and props to him for adapting rather than throwing in the towel.

Another example:

I used to attend a lot of networking events with a friend, who’s now in the process of moving to Florida.

And when COVID came, that just wasn’t possible anymore.

But thanks to technology, I was still able to network using mobile apps like Shapr and Bumble. Even though those apps are swarming with network marketers, I still managed to make some decent connections and add some quality people to my email list.

But if you don’t like the sound of dealing with network marketers, there’s another option for you.

It’s called Lunchclub.

It’s a platform powered by AI that matches you with relevant people based on your background and goals.

Once that happens, hop on a call and talk away. You can talk for as long as you and your partner wants, and have the conversation go as deep as you guys want too.

And that builds a strong relationship foundation right off the start.

To join the platform, you need to be invited.

Fortunately, I have an invitation link that you can use.
