Rating System for Retail
So my legacy family has recently bought a retail store that the daughter is running. It is doing quite well. She sells her own paintings and some sculptures the Dad has made.
The store already has 3 employees (2 of which sometimes don't show up to work) and is making quite a bit of money.
Now money hasn't been an issue for this family in quite a while and they all work normal jobs as well. So since money isn't the main focus of the store I want it to be popular and perform well.
I have had sooo many customers come in and buy the paintings -many of them without anyone selling it to them, they just decided to buy the item by themselves (not complaining, lol)- without even doing any advertising for the Shop.
My employees have been trained well from the beginning. I was fortunate enough to have people selectable that already had high retail skills.
But now I just find this boring. I don't have any reason to sell a lot of the paintings, train my employees or boost my popularity. With the glitch of restocking being free after closing I don't have to sell more than one lousy painting to make a profit.
So while playing I was wishing for a rating system similar to OFB in Sims2 or in Sims4 Dine Out! A way the customer can leave a review that affects how the store is perceived. Maybe even have critics write about a store in the news. Like a scandal or something that the owner has to get out of again. Any way to make retail a little more challenging than only doing the same 8 or 9 social interactions before some of the employees can ring up the customers would be great because I am bored out of my mind with this. THIS IS NOT WORTH THE LOADING SCREEN!
