Hey -
I am a master doc, just wondering ....
If i am after master merchant (yes holo) what profession would best go with it to help get people on the vendors?
Not sure if a "medical" store would bring people in or not.
Thanks in advance

I guess it would have to depend how saturated your server is with medical stores. Do you enjoy crafting? I worked something out with a known crafter on my server and became his merchant. That is how I got my xp. I also have been working on the architect line.
Whatever you decide to do, I wish you luck.

I've been working on a Smuggler/Merchant combo. I'm hoping after the respective revamps and the SE it will be an interesting combination.

If you want minimal skill point investment, just sell Artisan items like weapon powerups. I actually had to STOP making them because I was selling more stupid powerups than genuine weapons (no matter how high I inflated the prices on the powerups), and I felt like all the time I invested in Weaponsmith was going to waste.
It did teach me that powerups are a really easy way to get rich quick, though. Combine that with med supplies, get Adv III and one vendor advertising each, and you'll have to beat the customers off with a stick.

Also look into dropping your medic vendor into an established mall for high traffic

yup smuggler is a good way to make money if you're a merchant, I have one vendor for damage slices, one for speed slices, and I always try to keep em stocked (as they're always are), the fact of not doing missions to earn cash is very enjoyable and money's raining in my bank.
