KEY TAKEAWAYS

• We must always use a positive outlook for our business, as this encourages growth. But we must also focus upon contingencies. We need to fortify.
• The best practice is always to ensure that we have at least six months' worth of operating costs in reserve for our business.
• We cannot affect the larger economic picture, which is largely influenced by the media and the public's reaction to circumstances. All we can control is our own business response.
• Industries that did well in the Great Recession of 2008 include discount retailers, healthcare, food and restaurants, freight and logistics, and the do-it-yourself markets.

BEST MOMENTS 

'You should expect the best. You should have positive intent. But you have to plan for contingencies'

'We need a profit-first mentality'

'Things that are accessible but which give pleasure or mute pain tend to do quite well'
