Planning essential for business recovery

In order to survive a hurricane, every small business owner needs a plan, experts say.
Paige Kuhlmann, a business continuity consultant with the Louisiana Small Business Development Center, housed at Nicholls State University, said a written plan is the first, best way to prevent a disaster from crushing your business.
“If you’re like most small businesses, every hour counts when you try to respond to a disaster,” she said. “You need to have a plan that will get you back up and running as soon as possible.”
That starts, Kuhlmann said, with assessing risks. In South Louisiana, that obviously means hurricanes.
