There has been a lot of chatter in our podcast community this past week, focused a lot on sales channels, margins, and our dreaded "race to the bottom" in pricing policies. I've also been asked several times about the general state of sales in our industry for 2023. In this episode, I piece together as much information as I can on all of the above and share the heartfelt showroom perspective of the current state of our lighting industry as best as I see it. A quick programming note: Light Files will be off until after June Lightovation, but stay tuned as I will be back with a market recap episode and will resume our bi-weekly podcast schedule post-market.
