It was an extremely slow week for new SOA work. In peak times, we receive 15-20 correspondences/day. This week: 3. I've spoken with other owners of small consultant firms -- they report the same findings. Just a few weeks ago, new SOA business seemed to be on an uptick. Our thinking is that the early week snowstorm contributed to a slow week -- existing work gets backed up and planning for future work gets pushed to the next week. In any event, I'll have another report next Friday.
