When a Hurricane Hits Your Business

This year Hurricane Florence hit Dana Jaunzemis’ business headquartered in North Carolina. She lost power for more than a week and wasn’t able to ship for close to two weeks. Business came to a screeching halt. In this episode, I chat with her about the experience, what they learned and how to minimize the impact of a natural disaster if/when something similar happens to your business.

You’ll learn:

  • Dana’s disaster preparedness checklist
  • Which major shipping carrier really came through for her business—and which one really screwed up
  • The silver lining that comes from natural disasters

It set him on a course to found and sell multiple businesses, host a decade-running podcast, lecture at Harvard Business School and create eComFuel, the leading community for 7- and 8-figure online business owners. Andrew is fascinated with branding, AI, building community, investing and growing meaningful businesses that don't require sacrificing what truly matters.
