...Actually, now that I think about it, you might have to be cremated before they plant you with a seed. So if we hit the cremation market as well as the burial one, that might be enough.

[untamedwing]

So caskets and perhaps the burners?

[notsuperman]

Can we produce multiple things? I'd think specialization would be the key to efficiency.

[untamedwing]

It does cost more to produce more than one product. The expand the factory option.

We can start with the caskets and expand if we need too?

[notsuperman]

Sounds like a plan. We should probably heavily invest in our first product, since we'll win if we make the most profit, and then use those profits to expand.

[untamedwing]

[Nods.] Yes.

We can keep one level of safety, it's not an overly complicated product, but she enjoys wrecking things.

We may want to do a railroad at some point, ease of transporting far, but that can wait. Otherwise, we should have workers and advertisers, maybe an administrator.

[notsuperman]

I heard someone got burned last time, so yeah, some safety is never a bad thing.

Administrators are probably good, to keep the workers on task. If we're making caskets, we might need craftsmen as well to work the wood.

[untamedwing]

Alectryon did.

Yes. We could have a basic wood and a specialty craftsman for a more expensive, custom made casket?

[notsuperman]

...Shit. Let's make sure that doesn't happen this time, then.

But yeah, that's probably good. Focus mainly on making basic caskets, but put a few "super fancy" ones out there for people who have money they don't know what to do with.

[untamedwing]

Sadly it wasn't our fault, so we'll juts have to hope other teams aren't stupid again.

[Nods.] We can have two specialty craftsmen for now, and if there's demand, make more. Perhaps eight for the rest of the line? Keep it small until we have a better idea of numbers?

[notsuperman]

...Easier said than done.

That might be good, yeah. See how well that works and then expand as necessary with more workers.

[untamedwing]

Yes.

And...three advertisers. The more people know, the better.

[notsuperman]

Sounds good. Nobody's gonna buy them if they don't know about them, after all.

[untamedwing]

Right.

That should be good for a start.

[notsuperman]

Yeah, let's see where that gets us.

[untamedwing]

All right.
