Hi, anyone good at profitable corps?

I have corps selling at twice market price, can't figure it out how to sell it at even a higer price. Besides that , I'm still making 0.1M profit per game month if lucky, otherwise almost negative always. :/

Average corp resources quality = 170
Quality of the product = 219

Fearless Blue
Enterprise: FB Corps
Corp name: Mobile Devices 001


I have several fully upgraded corps with the same 'issue'. Any idea what am I doing wrong?

Thank you,
B

As a start, I'd make sure you have 100% workers, 100% production, that the corp has sufficient supplies on hand, set the corporation resource quality to 215 or so, and make sure your national Welfare Index is 120+.
That should setup your corps to be profitable.

If they still aren't, make sure that the item they are hasn't gone green in the market.
That could be from some nation or Enterprise flooding a market, or the game periodically releaving shortfalls by direct infusion.
In both cases, the condition will pass with time and prices (and profits) will increase again.

If you've done the above, and it's not green, and you're still not making profits, it may be something about the market.
You're producing a niche product and there's a chronic over supply most likely.
