Working from home. Social distancing. Quarantines.

This is the new reality for millions of Americans as the government tries to limit the spread of COVID-19. These extreme measures have completely upended the rhythms of everyday life as people cope with extended isolation.

The effect on the promotional products industry has been massive. Companies are scrambling to maintain sales as events cancel. Distributors and suppliers are figuring out how to maintain operations while preserving the safety of employees through working from home. For many in the industry, this is unprecedented territory.

In this latest episode of Promo Insiders, Editor-in-Chief C.J. Mittica and Counselor Executive Editor Christopher Ruvo discuss what companies in the promo industry are doing to make it through difficult times, what creative tactics distributors can use to hold onto orders, and why at the other end of this crisis lies hope.
