I sincerely feel that with challenges comes opportunities as well and this is when the core-values will be required to retain customer loyality as well new opportunities.

I think the biggest one, that may shock some people, is to not offer huge discounts. It may seem like a way to lure in customers but you will need to sell four times as much product to compensate for the discount.
