Disaster Recovery –
How would you cope?


What would happen to your business if a disaster struck? What if you had a fire or a flood and lost everything? Perhaps a natural disaster such as a tornado or hurricane? Think just about what your business would do if you were simply without power for several days and couldn’t access your computer. You have probably talked to your insurance agent about proper insurance for the belongings in the house, but what about that list of customers that you couldn’t replace? Disasters occur everyday and can happen to anybody.

A recent University of Minnesota study showed "that 93% of businesses that had a ‘down-time’ of ten days or more filed for bankruptcy within a year. Of those businesses filing for bankruptcy, 50% filed immediately." Could this happen to you? Absolutely. This article will help you be prepared in case a disaster happens to you.
