Helping Small Businesses Post-Pandemic

--News Direct--

Small businesses were among the hardest hit during the pandemic, facing higher rates of store closures, layoffs, and financial hardships. In a recent survey of Klarna’s small business partners, 44% noted the biggest challenge their business faced as a result of COVID-19 was loss of revenue, 36% said the greatest concern facing their business over the next 6 months will be finding new customers, and 48% revealed the area they plan to make the biggest investment in is digital marketing.

Recently, Global Head of Business Marketing at Klarna, Stephanie Paturzo, participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss the challenges small business face and a new initiative that is looking to help.

The past year has been really tough for small businesses. Many are struggling from loss of revenue, inability to fulfill orders, and pivoting their e-commerce platforms. But good news - the market and these businesses are primed for recovery - the majority of small businesses noted that their biggest focus over the next 6 months will be finding new customers. That requires massive investment in time and resources, which small businesses might not have. Klarna wants to help them thrive and build their own recovery.

Klarna, a leading global retail bank, recently launched their Klarna Small Business Impact Initiative. With this initiative, they are providing 100 small businesses across the country $4.5M in free services; that means Buy Now Pay Later services to increase sales and free marketing to help them find new customers.

As a global payments provider and shopping service, Klarna has a network of nearly 20 million shoppers in the U.S. and 250,000 retail partners worldwide.

With Klarna, small businesses are enabling customers to shop with more control and flexibility.

Businesses who want to work with Klarna can go to klarna.com/business. To shop at these small businesses, customers can download the Klarna app on their phones.
