This seems interesting. I registered as Dante Medina of Limex Inc. I have a 350m2 lime farm, a beverage factory, a power plant, and a well. Not sure about what to do with the limes, for now I just built a farmer's market and I'm selling them there. What should I do?

So what's the latest collusion strategy? I see that bacon is pretty absent from the B2B and a LOT of other products are basically selling on B2B for the same price/quality as the average store price which basically kills the resale market (at least for me).

Any tips on how you guys are doing retail pricing? I whipped up a handy-dandy Excel spreadsheet and did some SWAG formulas using the avg market price and avg market quality to figure out appropriate quality-scaled pricing for my retail store and it's been working out well so far.

For retail pricing of cakes, Me and occasionally some other guys have been selling toaster cake, and then him and his giant food court have been selling them for a highly overpriced amount. And whatever else he has in it. Join the irc if you want, its on newnet.

Hello fellow fruit farmer!

From what I've seen, all the fruit markets are pretty saturated so I've just been selling my product in my farmer's market and then the excess in B2B. Exporting some as well to recoup money that I can use to stock other products from B2B.

The real money is in processing those limes into something else but selling them initially in retail and B2B will help you get the capital to get there.

Fruit is mainly a cash cow to pay for the daily expenses and further things.

[Funk]

you cant fall with fruit you just cant do much with it.
use fuit as a cash crop to get a good store going i.e.(25m2 with stock) by any items if you need them.
the money will help you to get bigger things and branch out anything that is good at makeing money i.e. salt will crash after a few days as the market will get flooded or dry up.

Buy supplies to use your entire market (it is ridiculous but you can buy products (from B2B/import) at average world price and sell it in store at twice of this) and make it bigger. It may be good idea to set up processing - it may be hard to sell unprocessed fruits. And sell power plant. IMHO it is a good idea to outsource electricity/water production.

[Aklyon]

Not always the best to outsource it, I'm getting an ok amount of money from selling electricity and natural gas, ok to me anyway. Its like how I still have the apple plantation to have apples to sell off.

Well, in this game everything is profitable but other thing are more profitable than pump/power plant.

A store? I've got a Farmer's Market at 75m2, but it isn't selling too much.
I've replied to your PM, BallC420, btw.

I finally got my Farmer Market over 100m^2 today. I have a secondary Market at 20m^2, to more or less ensure that I get sales when the big store is expanding.

Do you know about the instant building feature for newbies (under lvl 5 i think) ? Also i'm not sure but i don't think you stop selling when the store expands.

Yea, but it doens't really matter all that much. I dont think I'll be missing it when I can't use it.

Does demand and unit sold reset every day? Im looking to sell gold at stores, but from what i see, the demand is satisified, over, even.

But if its reset every day I might have a chance at selling some..

Market Saturation can apparently go up to 1000% percent. But it doesn't reset every day. I think it's in part set around the 3 day average.

The saturation does effect sale, but what you can do to combat it, especially if your product is less quality, is to then sell the item for less then the average it's going for.
