Default Tough Times!

This was a post on a previous thread by Sportsmans that hit on issue facing the restaurant industry and a great topic for discussion. "I'm fairly new at this business. I leased a restaurant in 07. My profits have gone down since last fall. I've seemed to have tried it all. New menus ,advertising,daily specials,cutting costs where possible,cutting employee hours. I work many hours myself to save money 7 days a week some days 12 hour days.This is a small town our best time is the summer when we have tourists. Does anyone have any suggestions? Right now paying employees,taxes,food costs,repairs,utilities,insurance. I am really struggling here to try to make ends meet. And have no answers right now of what else to do."
