Transaction Trending EP52: SMBs and COVID-19 – Data and Trends

On this episode, we continue the conversation on American small businesses and COVID-19. To do that, we are joined by Alecia Muth, Director of Market Intelligence at The Strawhecker Group.

Alecia joined us to talk through the results of the survey, and provide data that gives even more dimension to our collective understanding of this crisis. To download the report, click here.
