subject: How Your Business Can Weather A Crisis [print this page] Unlike big business concerns, small and home-based businesses with little or no reserved resources will be hard pressed to shift to a slow mode of operation when in the midst of an unforeseen bad business situation. People today have a far more hectic schedule and face more challenges and have to deal with more complexities. How do you plan to not only stay in business but to keep it moving forward if you are incapacitated and unable to work?
You can successfully confront this question if you have prepared for any eventualities, and if you are not, then immediately take the necessary steps to do so. While planning the business, you should take into consideration the possibility that you will not always be in a position to manage your business. Would you be inclined to engage the services of an assistant, or seek help from kin or do other things you have in mind?
You should configure your plans to allow your business to operate on automatic mode, and to manage your business from a distance by taking advantage of modern equipment and means of communication.
Keep your records in order for easy access and identification in case somebody will temporarily run the business in your behalf.
After your business is operational, you should be able to manage your business in various ways during difficult times.
Limit your attention on things that offer the best income potential. You can do this by knowing what is your Single Daily Action (SDA that would give you earnings, and to act on it immediately. You kind of business will determine what your SDA will be.
As an example, your SDA will be three additional content pages per day if you are in the website content business. Your SDA as a writer will be five written pages every day. As a direct sales or network marketing businessman, your SDA will be to connect with and talk about your business with five new people daily. And your SDA, if you are the owner of a local serviced based business, will be to initiate new contacts that will make known your local service-based business.
Tap outside help by farming out such chores that you are unable handle at the moment. If necessary, take in outside help.
Allow time for growth and development in your business, time off and heart centered associations. Look for other people you can relate with and who can go through these times with you. Give yourself some time off for relaxation after you have passed the crisis. The rest will do you good and make you ready to plunge right back to work with vigor and ready for the next challenge.
