The thought of getting sick is a nightmare for most online entrepreneurs. 

Others may have bad dreams about giving a speech naked, or falling off a cliff to their death, or Justin Bieber moving back to Canada (not saying that I've had that one) ... 

But for those of us doing business online, getting sick is different than those who have jobs and have sick time (and who still get paid while recovering in bed). 

I remember getting a nasty flu bug a few years back, and choosing to record a podcast interview with a garbage can by my feet just in case I needed it (I'm happy to report that I made it through the recording unscathed). 

I also lost my voice for a few days last year, which is never good for someone who relies on his voice for content. 

Recently, several coaches I know were knocked flat on their backs with illness, and went MIA for the time that they were laid up. 

One of the reasons that I love having a daily Alexa flash briefing is I record the shows well in advance, and they drip out every day just as I scheduled them to. 

While I haven't been sick in a while, if I do catch something then I have content that's scheduled for the next few months. Business would continue and people could still benefit from the message that I'm sharing. 

Bang for the buck, a daily flash briefing is well worth the few hours a month it takes to record the shows - especially when you consider that you can share them all around social media and on other platforms. 

If you'd like to sick-proof your business and never have an illness slow down your message, check out the live training that I'm doing with Jeff Smith about Alexa flash briefings today. 

Jeff will show how you can have your own show that goes out every day - rain or shine, whether you're feeling fit as a fiddle, or your head is stuck in a garbage can.
