Backing up data and a disaster recovery plan are two priorities that are often overlooked, but taking these precautions could potentially save your startup and prevent you from losing your mind after a catastrophe.<\/p>\n<br \/>Widget not in any sidebars<br \/>\n<p><strong>Test it<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So where do you start? The first step should be to develop a plan, and then test it. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/283612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">entrepreneur.com<\/a>, about\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bizjournals.com\/kansascity\/news\/2016\/06\/07\/4-aspects-of-disaster-recovery-have-not-considered.html\">23 percent<\/a>\u00a0of companies with action plans don\u2019t test and never have. It\u2019s almost impossible to anticipate what might go wrong and what may need to be fixed or update before a disaster. Testing gives you these insights from one simple exercise.<\/p>\n<p>Ensure that new and seasoned employees are trained on your plans and know what to do during an event, especially if customers frequent your establishment. And <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/283612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">entreprenuer.com<\/a>\u00a0suggests keeping a battery-operated radio nearby just in case.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Back it up<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Backing up your vital information seems like a no-brainer if you\u2019d like to keep it. Most enterprises are unable to function without client information and other documentation.<\/p>\n<p>Taking the time to back up your data provides invaluable savings if you\u2019re ever affected by an outage, hack or other disaster.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/283612\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Entreprenuer.com<\/a> cited a ransomware hack on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerworld.com\/article\/3034721\/healthcare-it\/hollywood-hospital-ransomware-40-bitcoin-itbwcw.html\">Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center<\/a>\u00a0that happened in February of 2016 to highlight the importance of backing up. The hospital had to pay hackers about $17,000 in bitcoin to restore their health data, email and more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Inspecting after the fact<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While some damage may be impossible to miss, some of it may go undetected and cause serious issues later. Be sure to check and double check everything, as about a quarter of small businesses do not make it after a disaster, according to entrepreneur.com.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consider a property restoration provider<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the event of an outage, a property restoration provider can supply you with temporary power, asset protection and help prevent additional damage. Consider taking a look at the players in the space and asking questions like are you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iicrc.org\/\">IICRC<\/a>&#8211; or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.boma.org\/Pages\/default.aspx\">BOMA<\/a>-certified? What is your average response time? And do you have a customer service representative available 24\/7?<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t let an unexpected crisis or disaster close your doors.
