Back when interest rates were high, I had just one account. I had a money-market checking account that offered good interest rates and unlimited check writing. But those days are long gone.
I want as high an interest rate as I can get for my savings. In order to get those rates, I am using a money-market savings account. All such accounts I’ve seen restrict the number of transactions I can make in a month. I need to be able to pay bills, no matter how many of them there are — and I never ever want to pay fees for excess transactions!
So I have a separate checking account. It pays less than half the interest rate of my savings account, but I can make as many transactions as I want. The bank offers a bill pay application that I use for most payments, and I can write as many checks as I want to. I can transfer money between the accounts quickly.

I would suggest it would most likely to be either A or B or both, however if I had to pick one I would go for A.
A - The question suggests you may have been putting more effort and <span>enthusiasm</span> into sales of the products for your new business "<span>you were so excited about the large volume of orders you had" which may mean after your first year of business you may have started to slack of or get complacent with putting you business out there marketing wise, also when launching a product for the first time people are interested in the new and latest thing (such as a new business) after a while people start to forget unless you have marketing and advertising to remind them.

B - If the product you offer is unique and you were the first business to sale this / these items then after a year it is possible other competitors have started to copy you however this would completely depend on the products you sale.
C - Given you already had large orders in the first year people are happy to pay for the products you offer so this would exclude C.
D - If you have already had many orders in the first year people obviously want the products you sale even if you only sale 1 or 2 things so unlikely to be D.
