Publisher marketing. Am I doing something wrong?

[Althar]

Hey all,

I've been trying get my head around marketing in this game and can't quite grasp it. After failing a few games trying to market my project myself with a mere 30-40 followers I thought I would try using the Publisher to market my projects.

Is it normal to have over 260k worth of marketing investement from the Publisher only generate 100+ followers?

I seem to have an easier time making millions with shares and buying other companies but trying to make, market and sell my own products, even excellent ones just doesn't yield any followers whatsoever.

What am I doing wrong? How much business reputation do you need and how many projects would I normally need before I can hope to have more than just a few hundred followers?

Thanks in advance!

it depends on market recognition really

Well I am early game (1988 from a 1980 start) so my market recognition is terrible.

How do I increase it? Do I just release more and more projects of a same type?

Thanks, just found it weird to be making millions from a company I bought with stock money I invested in the start, when I can barely sell my own product to more than 5000 users.

I'll keep at it. This game is great and there is certainly a lot to learn.
