If, like many companies, you are losing money, don't maintain your current level of activity unless you anticipate an immediate change in the economy: a risk few are willing to gamble.

 If you haven't experimented with a thorough software produce like Quicken or Quickbooks, this may be a good opportunity to do a comprehensive study to determine how you're doing.   Finally, join with other professionals in your chosen profession and brainstorm with them, preferably in person.

Networking still counts.
