nice little guide. you probably saw my thread on mining and production, but I'm still confused about all this. well we have 3 of us in the corp, we mine solid on average for 2 hours, and the rest of the time is moving our products to our selling points and putting them up on market or picking up our region-wide buy orders that have been filled. At the moment we are producing ships and I worked out roughly that we are making 10-20% profit on each item that we make, is this good? Are ships the best for profitability?
cheers

This guide is really helpful for aspiring manufacturers. It gave me a good share of information I didn't have before, and some food for thought.
Thank you very much for your effort spent in writing it.

Thank you all for positive input, I got some flame for writing down this stuff but mostly I get good feedback and I'm happy about it. After all its a game, so I like when more ppl enjoy it :)
Insane.. if you get 10-20% profit that can be good or that can be bad (if we look profit only), depends how much is that per day per production line. Like I said there are items (tech 1) that can give you more then 5 million profit per day per production line. So if you make 40pcs of something per day and earn 100k ISK per item, that's 4mil per day per production line.
Although IMHO miner corps are best for ship production because they need to push large amounts of ore/minerals per day and can acquire minerals fast. In this case even if you earn 1mil per day/per prod. line that's still ok, because you wouldn't manage to spend all those trits/pyerites ... so fast with other items. For you ship production is best option!!

I've been building a trading career for the last couple of months and I'm starting to reach a point that it's getting hard to accuire enough volume in the products I resell. I was thinking of starting to manufacture some of the items, but I'm not ready to add additional skill training in my waiting list (it's already almost 2 years long).
My question is if I purchase T-2 BPCs for the items I want to resell, do I still need to get these manufacturing, research and invention skills? Or can I just plug everything in and let it run?

Nah, you need mostly Production efficiency 5 and skills listed in BPC's skill tab. BPC you bought should be researched (ME greater then 8) so someone have used his research skills on BPO and made that copy. You don't have to.
You can try my other topic for trade info.

Regarding mineral acquisition, I'll note that I strongly advise using Buy Orders for the bulk mins like Pye and Trit, and that the Buy Orders should be set at your build site. This means you need to haul less stuff. Hauling 100M ISK of rares is pretty trivial, hauling 100M ISK of Trit is really annoying if you're not a freighter pilot.
Ha, ha, ha I thought it was really common sense to use buy orders instead just buying right away from sale orders so I wasn't very precise :). Tnx for the tip to clarify the rules!
Buy orders are NOT a no-brainer 'yes'. Look at the margin between the lowest sell price and the price of the buy order you will make. If the margin is not enough to cover the buy order fees, you lose isk placing the buy order vs an immediate buy from the lowest seller. Immediate buying has no transaction fees.
When the margin is small, re-think a buy order. When it is larger than 1-2 percent or more, a buy order is a good move. Look at your buy order fees for your cut-off point.
Nice thread Aluka.

Oh Noes!!! my beautiful profitz!!!
Nice Guide Aluka, Much as i dislike the competition, chances are , you dislike mine :)
I aslo think that new players ask this question alot in the forums, so this is a good beginneres guide to adding value to your minerals.
I cant really add too much for fear of destroying my own market, but the first thing any manufactureer should do that does not have access to a lab for BPO improvement is get your production efficiency to 5!!
This will actually allow you to compete for market share in some systems, and you cvan work out how to get your BPO's up to max efficiency later..

On the contrary, I like competition!
Main point of the tread is that ppl start to manufacture like professionals and earn money for other intresting stuff in game like PvP, exploration or ... the easy way. There is room for many manufacturers but not all in Jita
