INDIVIDUAL RELIEF Stimulus Payments• These will be included, but the amount of the payment and eligibility
criteria are still to be determined. Pandemic Unemployment Insurance• There will be some type of extension of the enhanced benefit, but
likely not $600 a week. There will be a transition period during which there will be a flat amount of extra UI per week. After that, there will be a new policy that better aligns with an individual’s lost income (possibly by multiplying a person’s state benefit) but will cap out at 100 percent of income.

• There will be a more generous PPP calculation for farmers and ranchers based on their 2019 gross income.
• NEW “working capital loan” offered for businesses under 300 workers that is an alternative to a second round of PPP (Can’t get both a double dip into PPP and working capital loan)

LIMITED LIABILITY REFORM • Exclusive federal cause of action that applies to litigation against any
business, non-profit, school, medical provider, or medical professions arising from COVID.
• Cases can be brought in state or federal court, but this cause of action is the only standard of liability that applies either way. Defendants have the right to remove any case filed in state court to the federal district court in that area.
• To prevail, plaintiffs must show that the defendant was grossly negligence or engaged in willful misconduct and violated relevant state/local public health guidelines in place at the time the incident occurred. Simple negligence is not enough. Additionally, there is a cap on damage awards.

• 23. Interview your customers. How can I be an even more valuable transportation partner?
• 24. Strengthen your sales process. From lead through close and follow-up. An excel spreadsheet works, or other simple software. Ensure who is accountable for each step and update as action occurs. And measure results. The key: just do it!
• 25. Provide an experience. You’re not just moving people from point A to point B. It’s how you’re doing it? Brainstorm with your team—they will have ideas… often small things can have large impact.
• 26. Use video conferencing for a sales call. Newest tool for sales effectiveness. It will not always replace face-to-face, but sometimes it will, and be appreciated by your prospect/customer.
• 27. Motorcoach travel with your company is safe. Communicate all actions you have taken to protect customers and team members from the virus. Messaging to include emails, website, social media, all written communications, social media, signage.
