Market Discussions

Hi

I am reducing my activity in EVE, and I am trying to find a good way to keep profits flowing.

I have 10 decent T2 blueprints that make 18,5b/month, Jita-Jita. They are 3 ships, the rest modules/drones. Anyone able to give me an idea of how much these prints would fetch in rent for a month?

Im not really interested in selling them.

If you consider the idea, it might be interesting to make an IPO - outline of how the entire idea would be worked out. Just do one up for you to answer some key questions referencing the entire Lease, it helps me create business plans and other creative enterprises I come up in my head. I have used IPO's and it really does help flesh out the whole idea.

Some advise, you should consider the factors of each and every print; the total average each one made and rent each print separately. For any investment, you should consider the collateral damages your willing to lose on the asset.

Take the estimated worth of the print itself on the market (may have to consider the value of the extra research levels you added) and do an exchange of the print for what it is "agreeably worth" in a contract with the person.

If they bail on you and keep the print you keep the collateral money for the use. If it truly makes the amount per month you claim, any person interested in this offer you have proposed would like to know a few key things:

What is the length of the proposed agreement?

What sort of collateral for the cost up front must I provide for the insurance of the print(s) were lost, stolen, or sold?

Would you share the steps you took to make that gain with the renter? (you are asking for up to 10 separate people possibly to be your broker)

In closing, if you paid a small percentage to a real life brokerage firms you know they receive a small portion of money from the amount your investing. You shouldn't consider the rent value (as you would with an asset). Consider the percentage in which the person is capable of production. Renting it based off of asset estimated, worth with the below example:

[Cost of the asset X 10% interest fee]

Just a random interest percent of 10%, with a print worth 1.2 Billion, after it is multiplied by 10% (.10) the cost of feasible rent would be 1.2 million each month. Repeated for each month (length of contract) earns 12 million.

Though I promise you it is far more advantageous to make an agreement where collateral is used for trust and assurance of the agreement and you gain a cut - percentage of the earnings of every item sold from that print. If 10% interest is now multiplied into 1.2billion (the cost of an Orca Original BP on the market) you make 1.2 million off of every item sold on the market in which the manufacture "your broker" (renter) is capable of producing...I don't know the amount of time it would take for the manufacture to pump the Orca's out (not that skilled in EVE yet, unfortunately), but you would now:

[Amount of Orca's sold X 10% of profit]

If it takes someone 30 days to sell one Orca, you may want to consider a lower risk with a 10 month contract for a flat rate of 1.2 million?

The hardest thing about this is NOT making it profitable for both sides; it is about the dedication of both parties to carry out this investment. Would love to see where this goes if this is legit.

I still recommend you produce an IPO...it helps your ability to also negotiate available opportunities in any investment deal. It helped me in real life to write out my entire 18 page business plan and have a serious discussion with the investment firm I went through.

If I am incorrect in my math or labor required, I apologize, but working this out from scratch based off your question this is my take on the entire thought behind your post.

I have to say, for someone who makes 18.5 billion, not sure what it is worth using a flat rate of "rent" when each month is the length of the average amount sold every 30 days, but if you produce multiple items from the print...it would be nice...depending again on the actual BPO's your talking about.
