I've increased my prices just a bit to cover all the inflationary costs and my customers haven't had any problem. I'm at max capacity with what I can handle.

I've seen around a 10% decrease in the last 60 days in my merchants revenues. I haven't gone into the numbers yet to find out what industries are being affected the most. My portfolio includes many auto repair and hardware stores but I've got a sampling of just about every retail business there is, including gas stations and restaurants. I'll look at it this month if revenue is still down.

I provide services, we increased prices $25 across the board. Still had a record month during what is generally the slower season.

We have been wide open for 2 yrs. The past 3-4 weeks have been overwhelming. No sign of it letting up. My wife and I own a retail business. Despite what the state/federal gov'ts tried to do to us and despite what the Jefferson County Health Commissar tried to do to us, business is booming and showing no signs of letting up. We set new sales records every month. I've been saying it has to slow down at some point, but it hasn't yet. The COVID shutdowns affected our big box competitors more than us.

I own a small plastics business. Business is good now but down from the peak of covid. I built a ton of sneeze guards. Supply chain issues has effected me. Some items are harder to get and delivery is unpredictable.

I'm in the services business and it is doing very well. I'm leaving my job of 34 years to do it full-time this week.
