Friends,
The big news today is truly BIG.
First, as of today, banks have access to more Paycheck Protection Program loan dollars. If you were denied in the first round, make sure your application is still in the cue with your banker.
Second, OK Retail is hosting our first ZOOM to RE-OPEN call on Monday, April 27<http://clicks.memberclicks-mail.noclick_net/ls/click?upn=rQdji-2FhWK71B-2Fa85wYf3VQb5YmYUBrE45OOkl1Od-2FvsYXaz-2BxbTseZc-2BPpufN28iAlsu8CYjV5ZC-2Bl-2FV3EDRbT2L85a31EDrVyxtYQ8-2FqRGtfWjcbMyFXHRJJ0th1b-2B0aWlT_Uz-2FvSEKOUaFaAMmR0hoyIGmR3HLmz0ndqFeRdkgrPlBrto0n3X5XHCAU20Sp2MXayRV-2FlaMjQwV6v218iK2pmBiubkmnyJLQT3DALry8lrlklGrTsZuhtJeklOTLEDhUyeonfa6f-2FcK2QL-2BP-2FPmePEujKpo9oLP6OSakS6nklrikKsOrxy1AAeSaeP3zdSqLIv4mtfwru0Pc3NVhyju7L63KT93Wq4-2F1bvgqht7hoJZ4KFe0rWwNZ7AP91HOIN24d0DsAX-2FgUQW6ysUHyXjgGsjdzEfYM13f9l8s7ub5zpYp2Inx-2FTkqNrgsytuUsd9k8J-2FdtbtCrdTRK7qu3gKlrzOiNG4cISM1jwCMpw5fMrw-3D>! Governor Stitt and our local mayors have all determined that April 30th will be the last day of the "stay/safer at home" orders. If you kept your store open with online, curbside and delivery, you learned a lot that could be valuable to your friends and neighbors. If you closed, you likely spent time cleaning and preparing for this moment. Please join us THIS MONDAY 4/27 on a Zoom meeting as we discuss what opening your store might look like and how to instill consumer confidence going forward.
