The U.S. economy shrank at a 6% annual pace in the last two quarters, and Microsoft (!) experienced its first ever quarterly decline in sales and profits. It’s a tough market, no doubt. But there are hopeful signs, especially if you provide products or services around the juggernaut SharePoint or the fast-growing Dynamics CRM.

Hang in there, build your skills, refine your processes, take care of your customers. There’s light at the end of the tunnel!
