@mismallbiz: To the owner reading this at 11pm with the calculator open and a knot in your stomach: keep going. Nobody sees the nights you almost quit. They don't see the payroll you covered before you paid yourself, the orders you packed alone, the times you smiled at a customer an hour after you wanted to cry. They just see the doors open the next morning. And quietly, that's one of the bravest things a person can do. You're not behind. You're not failing. You're building something most people are too scared to even start. Tag a small business owner who needs to hear this today. And if you're that owner, comment "still open" so I know you're out there. Shop local. Support local. Build Michigan.
