This special episode of “The Trusted Advisor” features a second Retail IT Community Roundtable discussion on COVID-19 hosted by the RSPA. VARs, ISVs, vendors, and distributors in the restaurant, retail, and grocery verticals share strategies and tactics for best dealing with this crisis. Among the topics discussed are protecting your employees and merchants, appropriately introducing new products like e-commerce solutions, adjusting to an extreme reduction in credit card residuals, helping your merchants keep their equipment clean, and enabling employees to work from home.
