By returning of "Star Wars" styles, my sales increased. Pilots really want to wear like pilots they have seen.

I don't count Imperial ones, they like to run around like cockroaches. But rest of pilots are really interested in pastel coloredpilot dressing and some in rebel style. A bit advertising... over 3 millions a week..

I logged in for a bit tonight and realized that my luck has run out. I sold one clothing item and some various odds and ends I have on the vendor. I think yesterdayI sold only a few clothing items also. Looks like I'm going to have to do a couple hours worth of sewing flightsuits and see how those sell. I also think it's time to lower my price on the hooded cloaks just to get the rest off the vendor (overanticipated how many I'd sell

). Oh well, I guess it's back to business as usual. The income was good while it lasted

My business boomed right afterthe ground part of JtLcame out. I think people came tobuy hooded cloaks, and noticed other clothes they liked, too. Some of them went on shopping sprees . I finally have over 1 mill in my account (after playing for7 months ). Business seems to be tapering off, but since I'm located in a mall with a shipwright vendor in it, I think we might still get people taking a look at our vendor.

My business has increased majorly as well. I owe it to two reasons, the new clothes and my over excitement. For the last few months, being the crazy person that I am... I have been adding everyone that buys something to my friends list under the catergory (Customers). As soon as I logged in and saw the new clothes, before I even made any mind you... I e-mailed them all telling them about the new clothes... great for business,supercrazyfor me I was SOOOOOO busy for the first 3 days after the new clothes came in, I swear if I ever make another hooded cloak I think I will die Thank god I got smart and ran a ton in my factory ASAP lol. The thing is, most come in for a cloak and go hrmm I need a new outfit. And many whocame in for a cloakwalked out with2 or 3 outfits.

The best part wasthat most told their friends, and their friends friends, and their guilds etc.. at one time I had like 10 people all from one guild in my shop making my e-mail beep non-stop. The even better part, if there is one.. is that they keep coming back for more clothes. In one rash, "OMG WHY DID I DO THAT?" moment...I have expanded and improved my buisnessamazingly well. I'm not trying to brag mind you, I'm so very greatful my business has started getting busy...I was literally on the verge of shutting down and movingto a new location because business was so bad. I have 8 vendors with close to 2000 items, moving wasn't something I was lookin forward to. Before JTL Ground, I was lucky to sell 10 items a week, so yes it was that bad!!And yes I sympathize with those who are suffering as well. Business is out there... you just have to find a way to snag them in, because if you have taken time to offer a nice shop, with a large stock..they WILL come back.

Me... my business is sinking too. We're not alone though. The other night I was on the chef forums, and there was a chef posting how his business went to zip when JtL came out. With time I think our sales will go back up
