There ar a couple of ways to "ballpark" the numbers you are looking for. Remember, Amway/Quixtar abandoned their network of regional warehouses sometime in the early 2000s, and shipped most stuff out of Ada. You might try to find shipping data from rail and trucking firms in Ada to determine what the falloff was. Or ask Canadian authorities what their Customs flow to/from Ada was. The Bureau of Labor Statistics has an inflation calculator: http://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/cpicalc.pl 7 billion in 1997 buys the same as 9,448,124,610 in 2008, about a 35% increase. If your sales were 9.5 billion in sales, you are just keeping up with inflation. If you only have 3.5 billion, your sales have gone down 64%!! You are doing almost 1/3rd of what you did 10 years ago. Some opportunity.
