Ingame business ideas

[fruit]

Since the server restart and also towards the tail-end of the server's eclipse in 2021, there hasn't been much variety in terms of businesses on the server. This is disappointing because the script has never been better to start new and unique businesses, and yet I used to see much more creativity with businesses around 2016-2018. Now there are endless opportunities through the company, business leasing and furniture system to make the server more exciting, so I'll list down some ideas that have come to my mind, that I hope players can start, instead of the usual clubs/bars/casinos. I'm hoping this topic serves as a source of inspiration for more creative and unique businesses on the server:

 

1. Comedy Club
2. Golf Club
3. Events Hall / Theatre
4. Museum
5. Traveling & Tourism Agency
6. Escape Room
7. Art Gallery
8. Motocross Arena
9. Monster Jam Arena
10. Sports Complex
11. Analytics Company
12. Paintball Arena
13. News Agency
14. Charity
15. Indoor Karting
16. Music Studio
17. Museum of Illusions
18. Community Centre
19. Clothing / Boutique Store
20. Flowers Store
21. One Dollar Store
22. Private Jets Company
23. Library
24. Coworking Space
25. Motel
26. Bakery

 

I also think that there is tons of missed opportunities for business roleplayers and there needs to be more creativity shown. For example, instead of doing /cad all day, here's how you can market your business:

• Rent an advertisement spot on a company's forum page / website.
• Pay for billboards ingame.
• Rent trucking companies' /carsign to advertise your business.
• Conduct marathons.
• Conduct charities.
• Offer coupons through the /note system.
• Have business cards through the /note system.
• Advertise on MyFace

Companies with /createscene or /carsign may not use these commands for advertising whatsoever. You may use /carsign for your company name to be on your vehicles but you may not use it for things such as business openings, things for sale, etc. If a company wants to advertise they can use /cad.

I've been thinking about this,  but unfortunately one of the company rules doesn't allow me to. 

We use the /carsign command to advertise any businesses and use trailer to make livery, something like this

There needs to be some relaxation on that rule then.

 

I understand if someone advertises "Selling Cheetah - Contact Me @ 123456" or "Hiring bartenders for tonight's opening", they need to be punished and their ability to /carsign revoked, but it's wasted potential if we don't allow any sort of advertising using /carsigns. Let's say Los Santos Forum wants to advertise their racetrack opening. Wouldn't it be cool to build up hype by advertising a week prior on LSL trucks?

Thatd be very cool, indeed. Lets hear from the others.

I remember owning a bowling lease in East Beach. That's something unique and refreshing.
