Lessons from Mother Nature: How to Make Your Business Hurricane-Proof

Lessons from Mother Nature: How to Make Your Business Hurricane-Proof

October 16, 20243 min read

Hey, good morning, my friends. I hope you’re all doing well today. I want to talk about something that’s been on my mind after witnessing the aftermath of recent hurricanes here in the Tampa Bay area. The devastation to local businesses was heartbreaking—but what really stuck with me was why some of them had to hang it up, while others managed to bounce back. Today, I’m going to share the crucial lesson Mother Nature has taught us about business, and how you can make sure your business is hurricane-proof.

Why Your Business Isn't Safe from the Storm

Many businesses that closed their doors after the hurricanes didn’t do so just because of physical damage. They did so because their businesses weren’t invincible. They were operating on shaky foundations that couldn't withstand crises—whether that’s a natural disaster, economic downturn, or something as simple as a personal emergency.

Let’s take one of my favorite local spots as an example—Hayes Ice Cream. They’ve got incredible homemade ice cream, and I’ve taken many of you there during my masterminds. Sadly, they’re on the verge of closing, and it’s not because their ice cream isn’t great. It’s because their business model isn’t set up to withstand something like two hurricanes back to back.

What Does It Mean to Have an Invincible Business?

An invincible business is one that can weather any storm, literally and figuratively. It’s a business that can survive when Mother Nature and Father Time come knocking. If your entire revenue depends on a physical location or on you being there day in and day out, your business is vulnerable.

What happens when you can’t be there? What happens when the unexpected hits? You have to build a business model that doesn’t rely on your presence or a single revenue stream.

The Hurricane-Proof Business Models

I want to share with you the models I teach in my Invincible Income System, because these are the models that will keep you afloat when disaster strikes:

  • Info Products: These can sell even when you’re asleep. Whether it’s courses, eBooks, or webinars, info products keep your expertise working for you 24/7.

  • Membership Programs: Having members who subscribe to ongoing content or support ensures recurring income, no matter what’s happening outside.

  • Affiliate Marketing: Partner with other brands and earn passive income from products that align with your audience. It’s a win-win that keeps cash flow steady.

  • Solutions-Based Offers: This is the cornerstone of an invincible business—offering solutions that clients can purchase and benefit from without requiring constant, one-on-one interaction.

Real Numbers: Why This Works

Now, let me break this down with real numbers. Most service-based businesses, like healthcare practices, run on a 10% profit margin. That means if you’re running a million-dollar business, you’re bringing home about $100,000 after expenses. That’s not a lot of buffer when disaster strikes. But by diversifying your income streams and implementing these models, you’re not putting all your eggs in one basket. You’re building safety nets that keep your revenue flowing, even when your physical location can’t operate.

Your Business Needs to Be Invincible, and So Do You

It’s not just about making your business invincible; it’s about making you invincible too. You need to shift from being reactive to being proactive. The truth is, we can’t control when the next hurricane, financial crisis, or life event will hit—but we can control how prepared we are.

Take a minute and ask yourself: If a hurricane hit tomorrow, would my business survive? If the answer isn’t a resounding YES, it’s time to get to work on building something that can withstand whatever life throws at it.

Conclusion: Your Next Steps to Invincibility

If this message resonates with you, I want to help you make your business hurricane-proof. The Invincible Income System is built to guide you step-by-step through creating a business model that can survive any storm.

Let’s make sure your business isn’t just surviving—it’s thriving, no matter what comes your way.
