Duke Creative Marketing Solutions has undergone its second round of layoffs this year, downsizing from 14 employees to five on April 30.

In the first round in early March, founder Lana Duke nearly halved the workforce from 26. Duke cited a need to streamline operations to pursue new business after losing the New Orleans shop’s major account, Ruth’s Chris Steak House.

The agency’s doors were locked last week and its telephone was answered by a machine.
