I have been a regular reader of hacker news for a year or so and have a lot of respect for the community here. Commentators usually bring a lot of intelligence, business experience, and entrepreneurial know-how to their thoughtful advice.

How should I handle layoffs and a reorganization?

Background: I run a website design / development and online marketing agency with roughly 70 full time team members. Due to a slowdown in new business and the unexpected cancellations of some of our larger clients, I think we need to let about 6-7 people go.
