Disaster Plan for Business

If you own a business, it makes complete sense to have a disaster plan. Much more necessary in a place with recurring disasters such as coastal regions, anywhere protected by a levee or anywhere tornadoes strike.

This is something that corporations tend to have in place but small business owners are unlikely to look in to immediately. But they should. Small businesses are more likely that corporations to lose everything in the event of one disaster. Part-time solo practitioners should have disaster plans as well, even if you think your business is too small to need a disaster plan. Difficult to grow into a full-time practice if you lose everything. The Small Business Administration may be able to help you with business planning. You may also want to check with your local Unemployment office, whatever it's called in your state. They may have information for small business owners as well.
