Rules For Managing In The Downturn
from the don't-fuck-up dept
Fortune has come out with a list of thirteen moves your company should make to deal with the downturn. Most of them are pretty obvious, but the list could act as a good reminder of some fundamentally good business practices. Of course, whether or not you can actually do any of these is another story. It's nice of them to tell you to keep hiring and at the same time to move your breakeven point closer - but those two things can certainly conflict.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
