your prices are too high for the worker class bro..if you have a team which win a lot in a row its okey..but if not,like you,your prices scares your fans..:-)

huh!

its the bleachers man!!!

are you sure?

cant my PR guy help me out?

I think your PR man has more influence on the higher priced seats.

the 2 lower priced are mainly influenced by win/loss and especially the previous game is very important for that!

Even if you charge a low price many fans will not come and look if you lost your last game, if you have high prices, it will be even worse.
There isn't much the PR man can do about that. Bleachers are the most sensitive to win/loss.

As far as I think PR manager is influencing things here they are:
2 higher priced seats attendance: small influence.
ticket pricings (especially for the 2 higher priced seats): very small influence
merchandising: very small influence.
season ticket holders: decent influence.

And that's about it.

as for attendance :
bleachers: hugely influenced by win/loss last game, small influence by price.
2nd lowest: big influence by win/loss last game, small influence by price
2nd highest priced: some influence by win/loss last game, big influence by pricings.
boxes: small influnce by win/loss last game, huge influence by price.
Also standings of both teams, yuor and your opponent influence the attendance, the higher you are in the division, the more spectators, all seats are influenced, but probably the higher priced are the most influenced by this.

Now this is MY view, don't take it for truth.

the idea is great! i understand the concept,

but what i was hoping to see is a cushion for that fall in attendance, which when you have level 1 guy here probably he will be ahhh overwhelmed and dont know what to do but sweat and scratch his head

but you got a level 10 guy who knows the bloody business of how to do things and still i get measely results because my team even on top on my division struggle a bit and thats it he cant take the heat of doing something ?

yes. I do believe the PR manager indeed cussions the fall, but just as with doctors the effect can go unnoticed.

The more attendance you have, the bigger the effect of the fall will be, and the bigger the effect the PR manager will have on it.

It is quite possible that a lvl 10 PR only pays of if you normally have an attendance of 50000, who'll say?

I also forgot 1 thing when I mentioned attendance, offcourse also the Div you are in is important for your attendance.

As someone else also mentioned, the higher division, and the bigger the numbers of expenses and income get, the less impact the wage f the PR man has on the total picture, and probably the bigger the influence of him on attendance and merchandising...

Personnaly I honestly believe that lvl 10 staff can benefit for Div I only. In Div II I'd go for a lvl 9 trainer, and lvl 7 PR guy. I will not talk about doktors, since I feel about them the way you feel about PR managers, and I still have Max Paine in my squad!
For lower Divisions I'd keep the lvl 9 trainer, and lower the PR guy by at least 1 level per division

Max Paine for the win ! Same here

as much as the impact of his salary is concern, its not about how much pay would get unnotice its about justifying the thing your paying.

even for lower division teams, if his working then reach the sealing of what probably could be the max of your market then we cant do nothing about it anymore.

but simply to see results such as 5k increase in merchandise sales, actually i thought of it and yes this should fall to the marketing expert since his just PR ( but i still think PR is also marketing ) and another if his doing his work whether its charity or volunteer or with any special events that includes basketball team then i would expect a slow increase in what i should be getting.

im not asking for a whooping 50 grand from the 35 grand sales i have then but for 3 weeks im with him the first week has a increase of 5k , then 4.76 k then 4.1k.

but your paying big bucks i mean 20K++ for this guy and your not seeing anything as results.

it would be nice to know if the effects of this is only for the season ticket holders to increase then i guess we got nothing else but wait till the season is over sicne he needs to work that long to get results.
i mean we just sit our ass and see what next season brings.

i dont think charging high on tickets for a team that really is competing and winning and is the division leader should be a reason, are the nba tickets prices same as when you are in los angeles and milwaukee or probably seattle? i think not!

but your paying big bucks i mean 20K++ for this guy and your not seeing anything as results.

Should the best staff members be the best ones (giving most when comparing to costs)? I mean, in my opinion it would even be a bit boring if that PR10 guy was the best option every time.

are we talkng about real life here or what?

this is a game, the level is an indication of what he can do

The PR guys in BB. At least I am.

this is a game, the level is an indication of what he can do

Of course level 10 PR should bring you more money than level 5 PR.

But if the difference in the wages is 10k, I don't think it would be good if that in every situation with every team the level 10 PR would get you over 10k more than level 5 PR.

what! the difference your trying to wager here and explain goes to a lot of factors

it includes the type of division you have, your arena size, your team etc

come on man! this is going no where
