If the day comes where your business is hit with disaster or emergency, you can rest assured SERVPRO of Gwinnett County South will be there to help.

When you own a company, you have full-time responsibilities as well as an infinite to-do list. You have a lot on your plate, it’s no secret—whether it’s hiring or payroll, inventory or marketing as well as the work you take home with you after hours.

All of your hard work might be jeopardized if you aren’t prepared for the worst. You’ve put in a lot of effort to get to this point. Don’t you want to do all you can to give your business the best shot to withstand any adversity?

It might be difficult (if not impossible) to get your company back up and running after a fire, storm or other disaster. FEMA reports that 40% of small businesses shut permanently after a catastrophe, with many of those that do reopen closing again within a year.

So, how can you put yourself in the best possible position for a successful comeback after a setback? Having a plan in place for what to do next if your organization is hit by a disaster might be the difference between survival and failure.

Did you know that three-quarters of small firms in the United States have no disaster plan in place? The companies that are prepared for a crisis have a better chance of recovering.

SERVPRO of Gwinnett County South assists local businesses in disaster preparedness by creating an Emergency Ready Plan that is customized to a company’s requirements, location and industry. If you have a plan in place, you will be able to limit downtime since you will know what to do in the case of a crisis.

Natural disasters are difficult in and of themselves. Make every effort to be prepared to bounce back. We’re here to assist you with your Emergency Ready Plan today.

When your business is ready to prioritize planning and safety to prevent extended downtime, contact SERVPRO to get the Emergency Ready Plan underway from the folks who know all there is to know about disaster and recovery.
