If your business is no longer profitable, then you need to take steps to make it profitable. That may mean changing products, changing advertising methods, downsizing, etc. That's the nature of being in business. Times change, you have to be able to adapt in order to be a good small business owner. All business owners face challenges and hardships.

It's been no secret for the past several decades that cigarettes kill people and that the government and the public in general have been cracking down. Taxes, stricter laws, smoking bans in public places. This hasn't exactly just popped out at anyone.

If people quit smoking, they're not going to magically start saving that money under their pillowcase. They're going to spend it elsewhere, creating jobs in those fields.
