Disaster Plan:
Write a memo to Brendan McAlister, the owner of Home Start Realty explaining the need for the plan and the differences between hot, warm, and cold sites and why they may be necessary. Make sure you explain it in a way the owner will understand. Use a Microsoft template for the memo so it looks professional. A simple paragraph with no heading information to send to the appropriate person is not acceptable!
