We are in for some tough times, but as the old saying goes, tough times never last, but tough people do. Never lose sight of your value and be patient and resolute. You cannot fly your business into the ships of the other dealers trying to cut your throat and survive. This is a time to be lean and trim, to reduce all unnecessary expenses, and to watch cash flow like never before. But if you stay true to your principles and watch the numbers, you will come through this trial stronger for it. Good luck to you and your company. I look forward to hearing more from you, especially when the Recovery begins! YOU CAN MAKE IT! I believe it. My heart goes out to you, too, Amanda.

I feel for him, this is the same business we have, our bread and butter and the crisis has worsen the competition among contractors,cut-throat competition. I guess we can still survive if we'll learn to charge on our consultancy. My heart is at awe for the Kamikaze contractor.
