Risk Assessment and Mitigation
Get Prepared!
If you missed – or just want to review – our two part series on Risk Mitigation for your Small Business, but if you did, we got you!
We’ve got BOTH workshop videos and links to all the really important stuff: the resource lists and the spread sheets to help you get your business prepared for disaster. Here you find worksheets to help you understand what disasters you are at most risk for, how to estimate the cost “just in case”, and where to find resources and help.
