Ask HN: What are you doing to counter the recession?

1 pointsby satpalparmarabout 16 years ago
What measure you took to counter recession (save bottom line) and to keep your project/startup floating? I am particularly interested to know measure you took before you decide to go ahead with staff reduction.

<i>What measure you took to counter recession (save bottom line)</i><p>In general, the thing to do in all economic conditions is to spend as little as possible, as infrequently as possible. Fortunately, my start-up has no employees yet, only contractors. So we haven't had a staff reduction issue, but we have been annoyed at not being able to build up as rapidly as we desired.<p>(P.S. Flagged to suggest to curators that something along the lines of the quoted phrase above should be added to the thread title.)
