Life, love, and business all have their ups and downs. But that doesn't have to be a downer!
FALL OFF (= get worse) 落ち込む
- If business, sales, etc., fall off, they get worse.
- ビジネスや売上などに関して fall off というと、ビジネスや売上などが悪くなる、という意味になります。

b: They've been better. Business has been falling off a little lately. - Sales of their products fell off rapidly after news of the scandal made headlines.

We hope things are looking up for you these days!
