I've heard from some companies that are seeing a 10-20% decrease in MRR.""Payroll is the biggest challenge over the next year. Payroll is our biggest expense."How are you going to ride this out?"We use Flight Path + Baremetrics to forecast revenue and expenses."Justin's tweet: "here are the companies doing well right now."A preview of a new feature that Baremetrics is building: automated email messaging for SaaS companies.Josh's side-projects: Cedar + Sail, Lasertweets
