So I fired my 38k per week level 7 PR guy and hired an 8k per week level 2 pr guy. My merchandise revenue has fallen 6k per week. I'm not very good at math but that's like a 1 million dollar savings per week!

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

you forgot some points in your calculation:

- we got a new merchandise System, for myself the merchandise income raises about 7k so your income is dropped more then 1k

- the PR manager has impact on visitors, and yes this was the point he earns money for you, now and in the past.

his income dropped about 10 k...less than the difference in salary between a level 7 pr guy and a level 2 pr guy

I do not understand your first point. It is now three weeks since I have done this, and my merch income is roughly 7k less per week while my salary is 30k less. I don't think that keeping my level 7 PR guy and his bloated salary would have gotten me 23k more in t-shirts and foam fingers.
The difference between the finals game I hosted and the first game of this season was not nearly what I expected it to be considering I raised bleacher prices to max for the finals. I will monitor the attendance but I believe winning is what puts butts in seats, not PR guy level. If I drop my prices to 12 bucks for the next home game I can almost assure you I will sell out the bleachers.

but you posted it today without this information, so i expect you did it this week and notice the difference today.

The difference between the finals game I hosted and the first game of this season was not nearly what I expected it to be considering I raised bleacher prices to max for the finals


even there is it hard to compare, because max prices seems to be better this season.

I will monitor the attendance but I believe winning is what puts butts in seats, not PR guy level.


it is hard to compare difference games thats right, and winning does the main thing there you could get difference around 150-200k, to see 20k difference it is more difficult especially because it is nearly impossible to give identical "test" teams.

If I drop my prices to 12 bucks for the next home game I can almost assure you I will sell out the bleachers.


what would you profe with that ;)

I was just continuing the conversation of this thread from July, when Superfly Guy said he didn't think a high level PR guy was worth it. I said I was gonna change and check it out. After changing, I agree with him. As per the post that you originally responded to:

pr salary drop 30k/week
revenue drop 6k per/week (in 2nd post i revised to 7k)

savings of 23-24k per week.

the 1 million per week was, ummm, a joke.

I'm not comparing my team or situation to anyone else's. Just providing information from my experience. Anyone is free to take from it what they want.

i didn't go on the one million ;)

I just stated out, that you forgot two things in your calculation(one was cleared, because you changed it earlier), which could change things essentially. I won't buy a level 7 guy, because i don't expect big gains from it, but i also won't hire a level 2 guy.

But it is hard to figure out the effect on the visitors, and cross system comparisions are misleading.
