E Business Items For Emergency Survival

Have you considered your emergency evacuation needs? Do you have an "emergency survival kit"? For the past six months or so, local and network TV as well as local radio and newspaper have all stressed the need for an emergency survival kit. After watching all those millions of people in Florida and along the entire Gulf Coast of the US, I can fully understand why the need for considering what would be needed for survival is receiving so must attention. Many of the people that evacuated were able to return home and find little or no damage. Unfortunately, many of those who did return home found nothing. Everything they had either completely gone or so heavily damaged it may as well have been gone sparing the owner the misery of seeing the devastation of their life long work. When people evacuate, they have a tendency to overlook their computer area, concentrating instead of what is needed for immediate survival. That is normal under the circumstances. But there are considerations one should take long before a situation creates the need to evacuate especially if you use your computer for an at home business. A work at home individual or family has a considerable amount of dollars invested in computer equipment and software. This wise person of course has routinely made backup copies of all their software and the data that software has created on their computer, right? Wrong! I would guess that less than 5% of computer users have a backup of their software and even less a backup of the data on their computers. If you are one of the smart individuals who has build n Internet Income, you need to plan for an emergency evacuation and possible loss of all you have at home. 1. You need a copy or the originals of all software installed on your computer system. 2. You need a copy of all your important data. Data such as email address book, Finances, membership lists with account info and any other data you rely on for day-to-day operations of your business. 3. You will need all your data required for gaining access to and maintaining your web sites and any scripts you have installed on them. 4. You need all of these items in an easy to grab and run container! By completing the above steps you are guaranteed the survival of you're at home income with little interruption when you finally get back home. If you arrive home and there is nothing there, you will at least have everything you need to get started again. Everything needed that is but a computer. My dear reader, the needed computer system is a lot less expense than the software you have saved which was installed on the computer that does not exist now. Grab a new computer, install your programs and import your data files into their appropriate program. Find an Internet connection and your back in business and generating an income. I saw today, 11/10/05, where the unemployment claims for just hurricane Wilma is now at 326000 unfortunate people (CNN). If you do not prepare for your at home E Business survival, you stand a good chance to join the unemployment lines after the next emergency comes up.
