Be Prepared – Make a Recession Plan for Your Business

by Kelly Hill, President, Sales Advisors of Florida

Every recession or economic downturn is different. What we DO know is that historically economic climate changes happen very suddenly, regardless of warning signs. Unemployment rises, there is less consumer spending, and businesses make fewer sales. Recent changes to the housing market is a good example of how radical changes to buyer habits can happen overnight.

Have you given any thought to how you can plan for resilience during an economic downturn? It is game changing to be proactive to mitigate the impact of a recession on your business.

Here are some tips to help you with your recession plan.
