A Crisis Can Be Good For Business Revisited

By
Education & Training with Although I'm retired, I love sharing my knowledge and learning from other real estate industry professionals.

Problem SolvingIn the Q&A section today, Praful Thakkar asked when we joined Active Rain.  I looked back and discovered that I joined in March of 2007.   

During that walk down Memory Lane, I found my second ever blog post, which I think is worthy of re-sharing.  

 

 

Here is a link to the original post entitled: "A Crisis Can Be Good For Business".

I've only been around less than a year myself. As for your old blog post, I always try and handle a crisis head on and inform the parties as soon as it's possible. The sooner you deal with it the better.
