It's important to BLANK with these issues early.
deal
This means to take care of or manage something, especially a problem or task.
To deal with means to take action to solve or manage a situation or problem. For example:
We need to deal with the customer complaints immediately. – This means the complaints should be addressed and handled as soon as possible.
Early in this context means at a time before something becomes more serious or difficult. For example:
It's better to catch problems early before they get worse. – This means addressing issues at the beginning, rather than waiting until they are bigger problems.
