Starting a Business
It is strongly recommended to read this before considering to start a business
It costs 5 Gold to create an Organization to hold your businesses, this is highly recommended as it stops wellness loss through being a business owner on your citizen account, allows you to move your organization to where there is cheap raw materials and allows you to work for your own company.
It is possible to create a company, but this is not recommended. It is instead strongly recommended to purchase an existing company through your organization as you may earn employees, free materials, upgraded companies at less cost than if you were to upgrade from brand new or export licences - potentially picking up a bargain and saving yourself gold. You may change any name or picture of any company upon purchase.
Make sure any LAND company you may wish to purchase is in a "HIGH" region otherwise you will find it very difficult to make profit and it is not possible to move a company when created.
Upgrading a company requires additional gold.
