But did you ever consider how the weather and emergency preparedness can affect a business and its value?<\/p>\n<p>Small businesses are particularly vulnerable to the natural disasters brought about by climate change, mainly because most don\u2019t have the savings to help them withstand a disaster and many operate out of one building in one geographic location. Flooding, power outages, rising insurance costs, and an inability of employees to reach their place of employment can have devastating consequences for a small business. In fact, studies have shown that 25 percent of small businesses that experience a shut-down after a natural disaster are unable to re-open.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s not only businesses in areas vulnerable to flooding or wildfires that can be affected. Businesses across the country that work with businesses located in natural disaster zones can be affected by supply chain slow-downs.<\/p>\n<p>If your business is located in an area that experiences extreme weather events or depends on businesses that do, putting emergency preparedness plans into place is key to protecting your company\u2019s value. Know the economic impact a natural disaster can have on your business. Have plans in place that will allow your business to continue operating in the event of a disaster. Help educate your community on recovery from a natural disaster. In order to protect your business, you must first recognize its vulnerability.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t allow a natural disaster to destroy the precious value of your business.
