When policies, such as the trade war with China and other countries impact large corporations, they usually have the flexibility to absorb unexpected expenses. But how do small businesses cope when they suddenly face a 25 percent added cost? Do they pass that onto their customers and clients, reducing competitive advantage or do they end up doing what most business owners do, take a loss? For over a quarter century we have seen both good and bad times, and right now, among outstanding economic numbers, our caseloads are full. We are now seeking to work with individual business consultants who wish to provide the Valcor services locally.
