The Business of Board Games – Cashflow, Tariffs, and Teapots

From the article:

    But yes, a 20% tariff is manageable.   It will mean things cost more and added up across all sorts of things that are made not in the US it will affect everyone’s wallet.   But as a business I can manage almost anything if I know about it.  

    What isn’t manageable is the absolute chaotic nature of how these things are being implemented.   Tariffs on, tariffs off, extra tariffs, no extra tariffs.  15% increase on April 2nd.  Just Kidding, only 15% on some things but we aren’t saying what those things are.

    I can manage anything, but I cannot reasonably run a business where I don’t know what the cost of goods is going to be.
