LOS ANGELES — In an effort to support the adult retail community as it forges ahead following the impact of the global pandemic, XBIZ will host a virtual town hall discussion on May 27 that aims to promote the industry’s recovery with strategies for mitigating COVID-19’s disruption to business.
Slated for Wednesday, May 27 at 11 a.m. (PDT), the discussion will be accessible to members of XBIZ.net via desktop and mobile devices. A link to join the meeting will appear 15 minutes prior to the start of the event on the homepage of XBIZ.net. A link to the virtual town hall also will be posted in industry-only Facebook groups.
With online sales soaring as homebound consumers have turned to the internet for shopping and brick-and-mortar retailers cautiously re-open their doors to serve many of these customers that prefer a traditional in-store shopping experience, industry members are invited to join an ensemble of business leaders that will examine a wide range of topics and issues pertinent to the retail marketplace, with an emphasis on how to protect and grow business while adapting to a “new normal.”
Audience members will also have the opportunity to share their most pressing questions.
“XBIZ has been closely tracking the re-opening of brick-and-mortar stores in recent weeks, and with stay-at-home orders being eased slowly, now is the time for stakeholders to come together to empower the community as a whole,” XBIZ Associate Publisher Sara Ramirez said. “With our upcoming virtual town hall, we’ll explore the pandemic’s impact from both a business and consumer standpoint, as well as how the industry is navigating through these unprecedented times.”
XBIZ hosted its first-ever virtual town hall last month when it led a gathering of influential adult digital media leaders in a discussion about how they are tackling business amid the pandemic.
“Our first town hall proved that the business community is eager to find out how business is being impacted,” XBIZ Publisher Alec Helmy said. “By bringing together some of the industry’s most forward-thinking execs, we expect to gain perspective for overcoming challenges and navigating the road ahead.”
Industry members who do not have an XBIZ.net account are encouraged to register at least 24 hours in advance of the meeting to ensure timely account approval.
