The Growth Letter by Tim Cakir - Issue #5

April 01, 2020

Hi guys,

So in this 5th edition of the newsletter, I can share some good news. In Spain, our number of daily new cases are slowly starting to decrease. Does this mean that our quarantine is a success? By next week we will know whether we’ve been able to slow the virus down and maybe we can start thinking about when, and how, to get back to normal life.

Do you guys think everything will suddenly go back to how it was?

I don’t think it will be that simple, to be honest. We might think twice about shaking hands, giving kisses, hugging people, but hopefully we will continue washing our hands like crazy.

Will businesses go back to operations as usual, or will they take a new approach? Will more companies go remote?

So many unanswered questions! Over the coming weeks, I will talk more about the changes I think we will see. Plus, I’d love to hear your thoughts and predictions.

Will things ever be the same again? Who knows?

But for now, I hope you enjoy this week’s newsletter.
