Wow. Late payroll sure is a big warning sign. I'd certainly be preparing a "plan B". I'm wondering if there is any way to subtly let employees know that you appreciate them and might be interested in continuing to work with them if their employer goes belly up. (But not before that, it wouldn't be right for an employee to "steal" you away as a customer as long as the company continues to operate.)

Hopefully the executives see that now is the time to sell their operations to another more stable company or otherwise arrange for an orderly end of operations. Once you get to the point of being late on payroll, the odds of pulling out of the slump are mighty thin.
