When faced with a severe technical crisis -- think mail server down, fried DB server, website hacked -- it's important to approach the situation methodically and in an organized manner. I've found the analogy of a "house fire" both useful for managers to understand what to do, as well as to explain to others what's needed during a crisis.

Fear that it will take staff time, there will be little return, and the return will not be as easily measurable as, say, a direct mail piece. The nonprofit story I'm using is from the Capital Area Foodbank in Austin, Texas. Fear about letting the public comment back "publicly". Especially in this economy.
