Every business faces uncertainty. Late client payments, supplier failures, or sudden drops in sales can happen to anyone.
This section will help you spot risks early, prepare in advance, and act fast when things go wrong—so your business can survive and recover quickly.
Most small businesses don’t fail because their product is bad or their marketing is weak.
They fail because they run out of cash or can’t handle a crisis.
When you have a plan for tough times, you can stay calm and act fast instead of panicking when things go wrong.
Cash reserves buy time
Even a small buffer can help you survive slow months.
Early action prevents disaster
Noticing a client’s delay early gives you time to adjust.
Preparedness reduces stress
Knowing what to do in a crisis keeps you in control.
✅ Assume things will go wrong → Clients will delay payments. Sales will dip. Suppliers will fail. Plan for it.
