Having been inventing on and off for a few months, I'm curious as to how my efforts compare to those of more dedicated inventors and industrialists. When I can be bothered running the production lines at full tilt, I have a weekly revenue of around 1.5-1.8b with a 20-25% profit margin, using a single character with ten lab/build slots. That's enough for my purposes - it keeps me supplied with Rifters and so on - but I'd like to know how it compares to others (consider this an epeen-waving opportunity if you like, idk). Obviously, I'm not going to ask what you're inventing to get your returns, nor do I propose to say what I'm building; while I don't see that the data I *am* asking for is something that would be necessary to guard carefully, I appreciate that others may feel differently, so flame away if you think I'm asking for something that no one in their right mind would give away freely. That said, ze questions:
* What is your weekly revenue as an inventor? * What is your profit margin on that revenue? * How many characters do you use in your business?

Note to self: I'm doing it wrong.
On the T2 items that I build, I have anywhere from 5-100% return. The problem is, it doesn't generate 1b+/week in volume.
Perhaps I should just sell the T2 BPCs.
Right now, it is really just me. We are hiring though. Vol Jbolaz Odinsdagrting CEO Blog, @vol_jbolaz |

Edited by: Mara Rinn on 20/05/2010 06:42:58 Is that 14B ISK of revenue or profit?

I use 2 chars.
I generate 1.8b profit per mth if I run it full tilt.
I have a average of 143% profit margin after all costs and i make only one type of product.
I sell to Jita buy orders cos i am lazy but i could make 300%+ if i had the time to babysit sell orders in mission hubs etc.
I have one medium Pos 4 factories and 4 labs.
I need to log on for 30 mins per day.
Nothing special but it keeps me in ships etc.

Hmmm, hadn't considered that. Interestingly, two of the three people who've responded did so using long-term NPC corp characters; this character is also a 0-sp NPC corp price-checker. Maybe this would work better as an anonymous poll. WTB: non-terrible forum software.
