Earthquake!

Would you be prepared if your business was interrupted by an unexpected event like an earthquake?

Today New Zealand was rocked by a 7.5 magnitude earthquake. I was digitally ready. I had to deal with lots of other things today as a result of the earthquake and it made lots of things uncertain and stressful. For example, school was closed so my son couldn't attend school. I had a client to see who would have been affected by the earthquake too. I was dealing with aftershocks, news reports, family and friends affected by the earthquake and I still had a business to run. I did what I had to because I was prepared. Would you be?

Ask yourself the following 5 questions about how you would deal with an unexpected emergency like an earthquake:

  1. Can I access my diary from anywhere?
  2. Can I access to my files from anywhere?
  3. Do I have client information handy?
  4. Could I complete orders or services from anywhere?
  5. Can I continue to operate my business and for how long, from anywhere?

Consider your use of cloud based storage or offsite storage. We recommend Dropbox, icloud and Evernote. Whatever you choose you will need access to your diary, your client contact details and your product and service information. What do you use?
