Summary
We’ve all heard how important it is to have an emergency fund for our personal finances. There may be a time when your car needs repairs, or you lose your job, or maybe you have an unexpected expense pop up. When you have an emergency fund set up, you are able to dip into it when you have these emergencies in your personal life, but what about in your business? Is it necessary for your business to have an emergency fund? If you do need an emergency fund in your business, how much money do you need to set aside and where should these funds be saved? These are all legitimate questions and today I am going to dive into some of the best practices for emergency funds in a small business. If you already had an emergency fund set up and funded, but unfortunately this last year left you with close to an empty fund, I am going to talk about ways you can start replenishing that emergency fund again. It doesn’t matter if you are just thinking about starting a new business, or are already a solopreneur, entrepreneur, small business owner, virtual online bookkeeper, or virtual assistant, making sure you have the necessary emergency funds set aside could be what saves you from closing your business if you find yourself running into some difficult times.
