Continuity Conversations
Continuity Conversations is where we bring big business resilience to your small business.
We're Patty Bonsera and Keith Hessel and we are committed to the resilience of small businesses. 99.9% of all companies in the U.S. are small businesses. Nearly 1/2 of all employees in the U.S. are employed by a small business.
Small businesses are the ones that are directly involved with, hire people and make the most impact for their local communities and their families. Resilient small businesses create resilient local economies which create resilient cities, counties and so on.
They are the most valuable, yet are the most vulnerable to losing their business and their livelihood without contingency plans for disruptions.
Don't let unexpected challenges hold your small business back. Join the conversation and elevate your resilience today.
