Thank you from Pulse
Over the past month, we’ve seen the reality of business in Maine change as the situation around COVID-19 develops. Beyond toilet paper shortages and the cancellation of large gatherings, businesses across the state are feeling the impact of cautious consumers as Mainers avoid public spaces. However, we’ve also seen the coming together of our community to support one another. From thank you cards, hearts, and signs, to free meals, virtual karaoke, and Zoom meetings, communities and businesses have come together to support and adapt to the new normal we currently face.
Whether you’re here as a business owner, frontline worker, community member, or all of the above, we hope you find the resources we’ve gathered to be helpful and hopeful–because we know if we stick together and help each other, the situation will improve.

Free Marketing Services
We understand that many businesses have had to change the way they operate over the past few weeks, and some have even had to close their doors. No matter how COVID-19 has affected your business, we want you to know we are here to help. Right now we’re offering a free website audit to help businesses understand their current site’s strengths and optimize it for web visitors. We also are able to offer free advertising opportunities in partnership with The Bangor Daily News–including print and digital ad placements at no cost.*
One of our favorite parts of our work is being able to meet our clients and see for ourselves the wonderful products and services they offer in their own environment. Due to social distancing, this hasn’t been possible, but we are anxious to get back to it! That’s why we’re giving away a 360 virtual tour to one local business or nonprofit.** Learn more about how a Google 360 tour can help you get more exposure and see an example on our website.
