Hi,
I'm not too sure how Ecommerce will be in the new DLC, but i have some suggestions.
If there will be different categories of company for Ecommerce, I suggest adding a type called 'Group buying'
'Group buying, also known as collective buying, offers products and services at significantly reduced prices on the condition that a minimum number of buyers would make the purchase. '
At a retail gameplay point of view, this could open up a 'MOQ purchase & price' relationship for players.
This 'MOQ purchase & price' relationship could not only be applied between Retailer-Customer, but also between Factory-Retailer.
**MOQ=Minimum Order Quantity
Or if you dont like to add it as a company type, maybe we can add 'discount' as an option features for retailers, as a gameplay technique to boost sales for a short period of time.
What do you think?
