It’s a given that most areas in the U.S. are subject to some level of disaster—terrorist attacks, power failures, tornadoes, earthquakes, hurricanes—and wise business people would be prudent to prepare in advance.
Here’s how to go about it:
When disasters strike, be flexible and adaptable. Think through whether to close your business. A convenience store in Detroit stayed open despite the lack of power. Packaged and canned foods sold off the shelves, and milk was offered at discount for immediate consumption. The store offered can-openers, too. Without power, the cash register could not work, so they fell back on the old cash box system. They were able to help meet the needs of customers and keep sales going because they were adaptable. They did not surrender to the situation. The motto is to be prepared. If you are, you may be able to keep your business intact.
