#StartupLokal Meetup v.66 — Strategy to Increase Sales in Ramadhan

Indonesia is a Muslim majority country and Muslims are observing fasting month of Ramadhan. The unique thing is, fasting won't stop people to shop, most of them are looking forward to shop for Eid (festival) and to spend their THR (Eid bonus).
