Mooterus Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Alright, well, I'll get right to the point. I suck at owner mode. Now, I don't need people's comments about how owner mode sucks or whatever, all I need is some idea how to earn money. Because, no matter what I try to do, I lose money. So.. I need a tip or two or about 50 to help me not get fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelvarr Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 well, there is this thread over at OS forums... http://forums.operationsports.com/vBulleti...ad.php?t=114324 other than that, I would say this: I first initially thought to expand my stadium seating and go with promotions with no concessions. I was losing money pretty good this way. I decided to restart my owner mode and forego the stadium expansion this time, instead buying one of each of the main 4 concessions, and buying some souvenier stands. With the 500k or so I had left, I bought promotions. As the Devil Rays, you start out with a fair amount of games at home, and I was making about $350,000 per game. I turned around and spent this immediately each game I was in the green and turned it into more promotions. I think I have yet to sell out my initial 20,000 seating capacity and am making pretty good money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snappy Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 I left the stadium as is and spent money on HAMBERGERS* and Soda* they seem to make the most. In the beginning you should spend everything you have at the startup on concessions. I play all home games and sim away and have played most of my first season. I am almost in the black! At some points when you are away for a while you get down 7-8 million. Make sure you watch your income vs your ticket prices based on the opponents rating and the day of the week! I bump prices for Sat and Sun and make about 550000 per game and lower ticket prices during the week ,net about 350-400k per game. Also to get concession prices down MAKE sure to check what they are costing you and adjust accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
