ADAPTING WITH DIGITAL
The Spice House
- Charlie Mayer loves to cook and always has. So, when he had an opportunity to take over a 60-year-old spice business called The Spice House, he couldn’t say no. Charlie recalls the onset of the COVID-19 crisis as a scary and uncertain time. Thankfully, customers were ready to reconnect with their love of cooking in quarantine, and sales exploded online. The business began shipping at unprecedented levels with more orders than any other time in its history. The most important change for the company's operations overall was to optimize internet sales, in-store pickups, and customer service operations and communications, with some help from Google Workspace and Google Ads.
The kind of sales we’ve seen are just orders of magnitude larger than anything we would have expected — and there is no way we could’ve done so well if the company were not as digitally connected as it is.

Sunrise Coffee
Juanny Romero, a former barista, opened her first coffee shop on the first day of the Great Recession of 2008. She now owns three cafes and couldn’t think of anything she’d rather be doing. “During the good times, it’s great to be CEO because you get to drink coffee and talk,” Juanny says. “But when a crisis hits, all eyes turn to you.” And so, when the COVID-19 pandemic came to Las Vegas, it was initially terrifying. Juanny knew she had to find a way to keep her company solvent. She also began using Google Ads to bring in more customers. “The digital side of the business is what really saved us. Moreover, it opened the door to a whole new online community that is going to continue positively impacting us into the future.”
I feel like I discovered a superpower when I found these digital tools, and I’m excited to continue using them to enhance my company and community.

Morgan Miller Plumbing
Morgan Miller Plumbing used to advertise the same way as other plumbing companies: in the Yellow Pages. The company instead turned to digital marketing and increasingly found its voice — and more business — online. Stella Crewse was Morgan Miller’s operations manager when the company’s then-owner, Jeff Morgan, decided to go into retirement, and Stella stepped up to lead the 23-year-old business. Stella led her company to use the full menu of Google Workspace products to share documents and stay organized. All of this was important as our nation moved into lockdown. Stella’s company had already moved just about all its operations online well beforehand, from accounting to dispatching. “Everything was digital, so we were able to maintain operations seamlessly,” Stella says.
This experience has given us the confidence that we will be able to continue operations seamlessly no matter what comes our way.
