Kasper Quinn | Wednesday, July 25, 2012 - 10:01 pm In the past my Enterprise produced like 40-100 billion dollars of profit each month. For a while now its been only 7 billion and my corps are loosing value. Since its been so long since i been able to talk on the forum maybe i missed something or an update. Im wondering if im doing something wrong like upgrading the corps, paying too high of salaries or ordering products too high in quality. I think i have it set at 280 salaries and 140 supplies but my corps fully upgrade automatically. Maybe im ordering supplies too low in quality. If possible, maybe someone could help shed some light on the situation. Thanks |
Kasper Quinn | Wednesday, July 25, 2012 - 10:03 pm In the past i ordered supplies myself and put them into the corps for 60 months. I think i should mention also that corps are only producing a million in profit but the demand for the products are high. What am i doing wrong |
Kasper Quinn | Wednesday, July 25, 2012 - 10:13 pm I just seen that product purchasing should be at 160, so im gonna do that and see if theres a change. |
Crafty | Thursday, July 26, 2012 - 02:06 pm It'll certainly help Quinn. And dont use high mark-up sales strategies. Best price or -10, around there, will work best, I found far less monthly losses and so the ents didnt have to pump cash into the corps so often. I work to an output Q of about 250 for most corps, so buying at 160 - 165 for private corps seems about right, but it does seem to be constantly changing meaning higher supplies needed. This last might be a bad observation but keep an eye on it. |

Craigsw | Sunday, July 29, 2012 - 04:38 am Has anyone else tried best price? It seems counterintuitive that selling for less brings greater profits, but I sell at 25 over and my profits are not great. |
Anthony King | Sunday, July 29, 2012 - 07:26 am Yes. I was also having trouble with no matter what percentage we set at and nothing gave good income. Crafty suggested me to set at best price for selling strategy and i also set it for buying strategy. Since then, i've been good income and it goes up every time based on the market fluctuation. Thanks to Crafty i owe you. Cheers, Anthony. |
