Oh boy. Making it in the very nick of time.
What’s your emergency?
Hi this is Brian Pombo welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live.
Today, not coming in live from Grants Pass. Actually, we’re in Redding, California on our way back to California to go meet with some family members for the lovely time of Thanksgiving.
We’re kind of in a situation here where we’re stuck in a hotel because we had to go down a day early and we had to get out late and we wanted to beat some bad weather coming. Actually going two days earlier than expected.
So this is quite fun.
I’m in a stairwell right now and had to get online right away at the last minute of today. I think we’re onto the next day already. For our daily videos. So here we are for this day and the question is, what’s your emergency today?
I got to speak with Dave and Beth Pruitt of AMP-3.net.
AMP-3 is over at, at AMP-3.net. You can go and check them out.
They’ve got a great little website on emergency preparedness and very specific on emergency preparedness. Really good stuff.
There’s an interview coming up on The Off The Grid Biz Podcast that I got to interview them today one-on-one with, and this is a two part interview.
So you’re going to want to keep your eyes open for that one.
Their whole deal is helping people to prepare for emergencies long before they happen so that by the time they happen, you know exactly how to handle where to go from there, How does that apply?
We ended up in a little bit of an emergency today where we had to pack super quick and get out before the bad weather was going to hold us back from possibly making the trip altogether, making the trip down south at all.
So we were able to make it in he Nick of time. I was able to get on here and be able to deliver this message to you and really discuss.
I want you to think about all the emergencies that could come up in your business, in your life and ways that you can get around them ahead of time before they happen.
What are the ways that you can help keep emergencies from being too big of a deal?
If you were making or possibly quadruple the income into your business.
If you were making quadruple the income from your business that you’re making right now, would that give you the ability to have the flexibility to be able to deal with any type of emergencies in your business whatsoever?
If all of a sudden your marketing started to fail.
If all of a sudden your ability to reach your customers, in any sense, was shut down something you had no control over whatsoever.
A great example of this is the emergency crisis down in California right now having to do with PGNE.
PG&E is a Pacific Gas & Electric Company and they handle California’s electricity and they’re in a fight with the state over all number of things. They came out and said, well, because of all of the bad weather and everything else, we’re going to have to shut down people’s electricity.
So in some cases could be up to a week that they will be without electricity. Many people across the state found their electricity shut down for really no clear reason why. And what happens when you’re in a situation where you you don’t have that control and it’s taken away from you?
How do you handle it?
How would your business handle it?
Would you be able to handle it if your business had no electricity?
If all the different things that could happen….your website goes down. Would you be able to handle it?
Do you have the resources capable?
Do you have a game plan in case those things happen?
Are you growing quickly enough?
Where if something like that happened, it wouldn’t damage you long-term. If you were shut down for a couple of weeks perhaps, or a month within your business, would it shut your business down completely?
These are all great questions to ask.
You’ve got to think about emergency preparedness, not just for yourself but for your business.
We’re going to talk more about that in the future.
I hope you have a great night.

But I’ve got some very important news having to do with YouTube and in fact, David Pruitt who we spoke to earlier today has a great YouTube channel out there at USNERDOC, type that in USNERDOC.
Go and check out his channel over on YouTube, and we’re going to talk about how YouTube is changing some rules, how that may affect you, whether you’re on YouTube or not, and how you can get around them in the long run.
So have a great night. In the meantime, get out there and let the magic happen.

Can Your Business Survive Armageddon?
Hi, I’m Brian Pombo, Welcome back to the Orange Office in Grants Pass, Oregon. Today we’re going to be talking a little bit of emergency preparedness, especially in terms of your business.
Are you a good prepper when it comes to your business?
Have you actually thought of what you were going to do if things really got tough out there? And what, I mean, what do you do with your business? If something really horrible happens, something apocalyptic, let’s say the electrical grid shut down or something of that sort, what would you do?
Well, this was kind of some of the talk of where we were going when we spoke with Michael Foley. He wrote the book, Farming for the Long Haul.
The whole thing’s all about resilience. How do you make things last? How do you make things last pass bad economies?
His whole purpose isn’t directly toward business. He deals a lot with homesteading and farming, but you could take the exact same concept and apply it back to your business. And really ask yourself, are you hitting on all the main points?
Some of the things that he points out is are you involved locally? Is your business, even though you may have an international or national based business, are you involved locally? Do you have a customer base locally that you could depend on if necessary? Do you work one-on-one? Do you have forms of direct sales with people?
All these things are things to keep in mind. We talk about a little bit more they’re on the podcasts. Go and listen to it. Really sharp guy, very educated. He’s spent years as a teacher. He just recently came out with this book.
This is his first book and I think he’d like to come out with more from the way it sounded. We talk a little bit about the book writing process. Talk about public speaking. So if you’re looking at doing either of those things to help propel yourself, your business, your concepts and ideas, you’re going to want to listen to this episode of the Off the Grid Biz Podcast. So go and check it out. The link is in the description. Once again, his name is Michael Foley and he wrote Farming for the Long Haul.
Really good talk that we had there. I really liked it. I got to meet him over at the Mother Earth News Fair this last weekend. So that was lots of fun. In the future, tomorrow we’re going to be switching gears a little bit. We are going to return back to the Mother Earth News Fair and discuss some of the other concepts that we came across there.
Tomorrow we’re going to be discussing something a little bit new.
We’re gonna talk about the psychology behind the relationship and how that ties back in personality and the psychology of that. This is an area we haven’t discussed yet here on the videos.
We’ll probably have a little series of videos where we talk about that tomorrow.
In the meantime, if you are a business owner or an executive and you happened to work in the self-reliance field, meaning you have products or services that help people to become more self reliant and really ties into our conversation here with Michael, go and listen to it. If you feel like any of those things hit for you and you’re looking to really tune up your business, I’m sure you’re doing great.
I only work with successful people really. And so if you already have a successful business, you’re the type of person I’d like to talk to. Because if you have a place you’re looking to go and you’re looking to have someone help you to get there, that understands business, that understands your type of business, a self-reliance based business, go to DreamBizChat.com.
You can also find the link in the description. You can go and click on that. If you happen to be listening to this via podcast and aren’t able to see it, it’s DreamBizChat.com talks all about the dream business transformation on that page. It’s a real simple page. It has a video, eight and a half minute video. Go and watch it.
If you think that you qualify, fill out the application. I’d love to be able to chat with you. So until then, next time, like I said, we’re going to be talking about personalities and psychology tomorrow and how it ties back to your business. So we’ll see you tomorrow.
In the meantime, get out there and let the magic happen.
