When going on a business trip remember to pack:

• Briefcase
• Business cards
• PDA
• Office supplies (pens, note pads, etc)
• Laptop computer, power cord & spare battery

Also remember to:

• Leave copies of important documents with someone
• Make sure you will be covered at work. At least make sure someone will be available to answer inquiries. Even if you are on vacation, people may be trying to contact you.
• Forward email
