Are you looking FORWARD to the next recession?

Yeah, you read that right!

Most business leaders coast through strong economic times, never braking to create a plan for the next downturn. What they don't realize is that recessions are unpredictable. If your biggest customer leaves or your best employees start a competing firm across the street, YOU ARE IN A RECESSION.

The savvy entrepreneurs are the ones making plans now, so they can be buyers when opportunity knocks. They're looking forward to purchasing failing companies and hiring top talent when others are caught unprepared by a recession.

In Rock the Recession, Jonathan Slain and Paul Belair get you ready to pounce! Using the Recession Gearbox model, you will learn to:


Assess your readiness for the next recession

Tune-up your business and personal finances

Race to capitalize on other's mistakes

Accelerate past the competition

Through careful research and personal stories of business owners who grew during the Great Recession, you'll learn how to thrive when everyone else is trying to survive.

Overall this was a very informing read. I did not know nearly as much as i thought i did when it came to preemptive planning or gearing up for upcoming downturns. for me, this was a bit of an eye-opener to this entire sphere of business planning. I will say this is most valuable to small companies with some employees or revenue wishing to grow more than a solopreneur startup, but it has valuable lessons for all nonetheless. I would recommend giving this a read if you ever want to be prepared or ahead of the competition when it comes to growing and thriving with your business. Especially so far in 2o20, i think many of you can use a lot of these tips and tricks right now.

We received "Rock the Recession",
from a Good reads giveaway, and it was full of good ideas. The advice given gives stock to the phrase, be prepared. Right now the economic system in the USA is becoming turbulent. Meaning most businesses will be affected financially by the economy, and this book offers a plan to beat the heat. Prior planning is always a great idea in business, and this book offers a step by step guide to prepare for the downfall. Chock full of sound advice, from 2 people who have lived through the good times and the bad, the book adds credence to the sound business model. Well Recommended for all ages!
