I write to America’s entrepreneurs, small business owners, retirees and those planning on retiring soon. America’s small businesses are the nation’s job-creation engine, but 25% of businesses hit by a disaster don’t open again. That means many of America’s small businesses simply aren’t prepared for a disaster. Is yours?
The Small Business Administration has developed resources for small business owners including checklists and safety tips for a variety of dangers. You can find these resources here:
Topic | Resource | Tips |

Hurricanes

Winter Weather

Earthquakes
|

Tornadoes

Wildfires

Floods

Cyber Security

No matter where you live, it’s likely that your business is online, and that you use the internet. Be sure to examine the SBA’s Cyber Security plan. As I’ve written recently, Americans are vulnerable to cyber attacks, and preparing for them should be a priority for anyone.
