This is my second day (2 updates) of playing and i am almost ready to declare bankrupt.
For instance i made a grocery, all my products are better in quality and price than the Local suppliers, i focus mostly on products where there is little or no competition, but my sales are extremely low ?? First day was slow.. so i uppede the advetisment from 43000 to 176000 ( 2. largest and way to expensive compared to my earnings. ) Now i have more visiters (745) but they only bought 3 products in total ??? thats just silly. !! I went from an sale of : 9 867.69$ to 38.00$...... yes 38 lousy bucks .. lol increasing my very red profit to -188 908.91$ (atleast im not paying any tax :-)) I dont get it... plz help me.. understand what i do wrong. Happy new year :-) |

| Hi Gugge,
you have to check your Store and Office efficiency. What are their levels? Also how is the service level in the Store - is it Low, Normal, High etc.... Mike |

| thanks, but i still dont really get it.
the efficiency has plummeted to 1,30 % ..but why? Staff efficiency 100.00 % (at the moment of update) Store reputation 0.01 Marketing & Advertising Advertising expenses 176 000.00$ per week Advertising efficiency 0.02 % (how can this be so low?) Number of visitors 745 per week Office efficiency 1.30 % (at the moment of update) Close enterprise Qualification of player 2 Total number of employees on profile qualification 83 Top manager efficiency 54.30 % (at the moment of update) Work efficiency 0.80 % (at the moment of update) All I did was to change to a bigger store and hire some more people.. guess that was wrong. Because by doing that i also needed to hire more people at the office.. (got a bigger office and hired more staff) and that is no good..?? Is that why ? because there is more people in the office they cant sell any thing in the store?? I have tryed to put some things on holiday but since there is no updates, i dont know if it helps or not.. should i go down to a 10 people office again and just fire some people? |

| yes, you are right, that is exactly it. In this game, the size of your operations is mainly limited by what is called "top manager qualification". For stores, it is your qualification in commerce. In the FAQ section of this forum are some stickied must read posts on qualification growth. Basically, you need to make sure that quite at the bottom of your screen, there is a message that says "minimal safety factor". If you don't see it, then you've hired too much staff or have employed staff that is overqualified versus your skills.
Try to read those help files asap. If you don't have the time before the next update, just lower the skills of the workers to what is required and gradually start firing people until you see the message concerning the safety factor. Do your store first. Then when that's ok, also do your office. Good luck! |

| Just to add on JustNash's advice, your Management Q2 only allows up to max 20 Office workers, and you have 83. Try to hire as close to the 'min required' as possible, but no more than 20 total for all offices.
Up your computer levels a little, and hire better quality staff at higher wage levels that are above the min levels. Lower your Store and Office advertisement as these also contribute to the administrative load of the office managers. The goal is to make sure the office administrative load is <100% at all times. You have not stated what your Commerce Q is? What is your Store Service level? Always use the "work efficiency' at the bottom of the page to check effects of changes you have made. You may need to refresh 15 minutes later, as they get updated, I'm told. Mike |
