I give you a hand and stop selling 80Q Ground Beef at $20 from 37000 square meters of stores.
And if you want i can do you a good deal on livestock (chicken 3$ ,cow $300 pig $30)

[Singularity125]

Hm, this whole time I'm struggling to stay afloat, as I made a classic mistake and expanded the factories before the stores... But I was consistently making more money selling Plastic Jugs than I was putting milk in those jugs, as it seems to be a market few people cared about.

But now it seems the little competition I did have stopped caring. I have 100% MS now. And 0.03% Demand Met. Man, I wish I had the infrastructure to take advantage of this... XD

I have money, but nothing to build

[vagel7]

No need for livestock, I got a surplus. So since you were selling your high quality meat for 20 dollars and I'm selling 32Q at 28, I should lower the price.

EDIT: I see the mistake I did, I invested too much into manufacturing and R&D and not enough on retail. Sold my 100sqm Food Processing for 1.8mil and expanded my store into 130 sqm and got an advertisement bonus of 75%, selling pretty well now.

Well, I could go public and you could buy 49% of my stocks

That's something I can't seem to figure out anymore. Did something happen to the Stock Market? I can't find stocks to buy.

A bunch of Goons used the old exploit with the stock market to get billions of monies, and proceeded to go around buying everything from the B2B market regardless of the price. 's how I got myself banned.

No, I was there for that. Or did that happen a second time?

it happened at least a dozen times before scott took the stock market behind the barn and taxidermized it without covering up the gunshot wounds

stocks might as well not exist with how stale the market is now

[Cheedows]

Most stocks have 0% gain, its just a waste of space now.

[webadict]

I see...

Well, that explains it. I rather enjoyed buying low stock companies that were failing and making them run smoothly while simultaneously gaining bunches of money.

Now there's just not much to do...

[vagel7]

Wait, the stock market doesn't work? How do I become a corporate raider then?

I've been checking out the stock market, and all you can really do is artificially raise the worth of your company... So... Why even bother with it?

[Zazmio]

Yeah, the stock market is a joke.  I never bother with it.

I'm selling Ground Beef at a price of 28 dollars, my market is 30 square meters and ad bonus is 6.25%. Yesterday I made 16k on sales, today I should make more but I'm afraid it won't even balance out.

You really need to expand your market.  30 m2 is not gonna cut it.  I know it's kinda expensive to expand when you're new, but you really need at least.. I dunno, 250 m2.  500 m2 if you can afford it.

As for what price you should set:  It depends.  You want to set it low enough that your stock is moving at a decent clip, but not so low that you're running out of stock faster than you can replenish it.  I see people setting their prices way too low, and then running out of stock, all the time in this game.  If you end up with lots of excess stock, your price is probably too high; if you're always running out of stock, then your price is probably too low.

Err, Just sold my petrochemicals company for 120M, and used pretty much all of it to outsource rice research (now at 61. The leading research is at 70.6); expand my 300m^2 plantation to 2000m^2 and two farmers markets to 500m^2 (think that will provide enough selling power to shift the rice fast enough?). Seems kinda nice as my old research and production chain was a joke.

The first batch of rice will be done in 9 hours. I have 16M in funds and I am not sure if I will be able to pay maintenance guess I will find out.

I've never built a farmer's market, but it should be just as easy to make money with them as any store.  As long as you have little or no competition in your product, you should easily make enough to pay for maintenance and make a profit.

I have a store with Farmer's Markets... STAY OUT OF MY BUSINESS D:<

But, seriously, it's pretty easy. There's a few things people don't sell that I'm trying to make at the same time.
