Popularity is shit..

My company's efficiency and environment are 100%

however my popularity is 10% and my income is shit.

how do i improve my income ?

advertising budget is 350k atm

look at other sucsessful companys like yours, and staff accordingly certain positions are not needed early on

Also company gains exp over time. More exp will help you gain stars and generally more income.

You can try setting prices lower temporarily to gain more customers then slowly grow back up.

Popularity is just your income in comparison to the highest income in your company type means little

Tarelli took the words from my ..er..keyboard!



Popularity IS based on the total income that a company has made and is calculated on a daily basis.
The fact that your popularity is at 10% means that your company is making 90% less than the very top company of your sector. To increase this, You can do a couple of things.

1) Hire better staff that meet the requirements for the roles they are assigned to.
2) Set your advertising budget higher to attract more customers.
3) Set your price lower so that you sell more items.
4) Assign your staff to the correct roles so that they make the product//sell the product.
5) Check other companies of the same type and see what set up they have for employees. Mirror image the set up.

Last resort.
6) Sell your company on and then join a company of the type you would like to run in the future. Copy and make a not of daily figures of that company. When you have enough data, you can start your own and you should know how to set things up to give you a rough idea of what you need to do to be successful.


Obviously, If you have enough cash and time to continue running it, keep it going. But if not or you are struggling number 6 maybe be an option.



Hope this helps

bubba52763 makes a good point. Each employee should be doing a certain job. Do you have the Director's Handbook?

Advertising budget is also too low. If your revenue minus salaries = x, make advertising budget slightly less than x until total advertising budget is 1,2, or 3...

I'm on a plane so I can't look at the companies page http://www.torn.com/companies.php

There are 3 levels of advertising for your company. Your first goal should be to budget the lower one, unless your revenue is more than that.

System won't let me rate this up more than once :( Sad is me

Directors handbook is actually out of date ~ It is based on the old companies system.

Advertising is no longer in 3 parts. It is purely based on luck at first. However, the new system gives us a recommended retail price RRP. New companies should set their price to about 25-35% lower than RRP with zero advertising in the beginning.



And thank you for the rating :-)

uh oh. was there an announcement? do you have a link?

Yes about 2 years ago.
