Disaster Response Plans — What Do You Need to Know?

In 2006, after managing severe flooding in our area, I began reflecting on how to improve our disaster response. By analyzing what went well and what could be improved, I recognized that having a pre-established plan would enhance our efficiency and effectiveness in disaster recovery. This led me to focus on business continuity and disaster planning, which became a passion as it intertwined with my background in restoration and emergency response.

By March 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit and businesses faced shutdowns, I saw the need for clear guidance. Drawing from years of disaster planning experience, I quickly organized a free community webinar on managing business during the pandemic, addressing a gap in the market well before other resources emerged.

The key takeaway is that disaster planning benefits both commercial and residential clients. Effective plans minimize damage and streamline response, making your services invaluable. Building relationships through disaster preparedness can strengthen client trust and ensure you are the go-to provider when a disaster strikes.

Today, incorporating disaster response planning into your services can set you apart. Modern tools like apps simplify the planning process and provide easy access and updates, making it more efficient than traditional methods.

Embrace disaster planning as a core part of your business strategy to enhance client relationships and drive success.
