Build tomorrow’s customer pool

Choose one bottleneck: stock to sell, a missing supply, or appraisal work. Put merchandise of a clear category in the case for buyers, the matching Neon Sign for sellers, or your Appraisal Board certificate for service clients. Then inspect Clientele beside the shutter. Make changes before opening; merchandise added during trading is counted at the next opening.

Why a sign is different from stock

A Water Neon Sign seeks supply; a water item seeks a buyer. Food, Material, Medical and Household signs similarly target suppliers. Dr. Jackson is the equipment contact for signs. A certificate seeks appraisal clients, while displayed weapon permits can bring weapon orders. These arrivals compete with ordinary visitors; extra signs are not unlimited extra customers.

Read the forecast

Clientele separates expected merchandise buyers from normal customers. Match the forecast to your inventory and budget. If you have plenty of water but no input cash, seek buyers rather than more sellers. If your purifier is idle because no water arrives, switch the supplier display before opening again.

Capacity and risk

The published display reference describes one merchandise buyer normally, more with Showcase Expansions and Buyer Referral Service. Intro day one disables these buyers; vandalism restricts the case. Contraband or recognized stolen display stock can trigger an inspection. Do not leave restricted goods out solely to improve footfall.

When sources disagree

An older reference on this site described selection by the first main tag. The newer display reference instead totals value by eligible type and allows a multi-type item to count in each. Use Clientele as the immediate check for your installed build; one tag is not a universal rule. High-value customers also depend on progression and budget. No display guarantees a profitable sale.

Improve attractiveness after fixing the case

Restore a vandalized storefront and review Janitorial first. Then compare Wild’s store improvements with a Mirage Projector from Jackson. Install the projector with its required energy and inspect the resulting attractiveness before buying another. Both Performance and Quality affect its attraction in the module reference. Record additional customers and actual profit over several openings; a larger attractiveness figure is useful only if the extra business pays for the device and ongoing costs.
