Addressing price increases and business disruptions due to tariffs requires a clear and professional approach. There is a lot to think about and incorporate … and a lot to overlook.

Akhia has created a concise toolkit approach to help your company communicate effectively during these challenging times:

1. Strategic Preparation: Develop a cohesive plan that outlines key messages tailored to different stakeholders. Ensure alignment across departments to maintain a unified voice.
2. Clear Communication Templates: Craft templates for FAQs, customer notifications, and staff briefings to streamline communication. This ensures consistency and helps in responding swiftly to stakeholder concerns.
3. Proactive Response Preparation: Anticipate questions and concerns. Provide your team with ready responses that emphasize understanding and commitment to service.
4. Transparency: Be upfront about potential impacts on pricing or service delivery. Regular updates foster trust and demonstrate your commitment to transparency.
5. Internal Alignment: Keep your internal team informed and engaged. An informed team is better equipped to communicate effectively with customers and other external stakeholders.
