10 Low-Cost or No-Cost Strategies That Will Recession Proof Your Business

And why they’ll deliver you a huge profit windfall as your competitors batten down and pull back on their marketing

Brace yourself. Despite the emergency initiatives by governments around the world, we ARE going to suffer the impact of the US and European financial meltdown. Possibly for years. There are going to be more and more businesses struggling to survive. And this will have severe flow-on effects in unemployment, credit tightening, and loss of buyer confidence.

As a thinking business person, you know taking decisive action to ‘recession proof’ your business is not a luxury. It requires your action right now.

By the way, if you have any doubts about the flow-on impact of the current uncertainties, think back to when the then Australian federal treasurer Paul Keating talked about Australia becoming a ‘banana republic’. He merely uttered those words and business flat-lined across the country. People stopped buying, pulled down the shutters, and Australia spiralled into the ‘recession we had to have’. Many companies never recovered.

If your business is your lifeblood, if it is your ‘retirement plan’, or it is the only thing standing between you and a nervous bank with the deeds to your house, then you do need to take action. At the very least, if you have shareholders, they’re going to want to see immediate action to protect their interests.

On a positive note, recession proofing isn’t about ‘cutting back’. Cost control is vital of course and your CFO or external adviser should be called in on that. Recession proofing is really about OPTIMISING what you’re doing now. It’s about seizing opportunities when others are gripped in fear. It’s about being rigorous and smart with your marketing. And it’s about implementing strategies NOW for cementing customer relationships that will repay you for a lifetime.
