Looks like you are able to raise prices a tiny bit.

Overall I am a huge fan of expansion when possible. Large stadiums create more income, pretty simple. Have a look thru your league and see what the average size is. Shoot to be above the average size and you will be ok.

Well this is only my second season, so I am clearly pretty far behind the other teams in my league in terms of arena size. There are many teams in my league with 9k+ arena sizes which I hope to get to before the end of this season. But for now, I don't have the money so probably just price raising. What do you think I should change prices to? I have listed what I am currently changing them to on my arena page (As you can see) but I am open to suggestions if those don't seem right.

As for expansion, should I really be expanding right now? My reasoning is that I am not selling out my lower tier, courtside or luxury boxes and so there is no point expanding them for now. After the price change, if I am selling out, then I will expand. Right?

I plan on expanding bleachers but I just want to see what attendance I get at my next home game after the price change before I expand.

Price changes wont take effect for a couple weeks you could add on to your arena and have it done before the end of the allstar break and be making more money now. I would expand and build more bleachers have a game or 2 with the xtra bleachers to decide then if you need to raise prices. I am always about expansion. If you continue to sale out build more.

i believe the reduction of the 2cd category is to high, i would try it halfway.

i am div3 too and only a season older than you and my arena is a bloody mess it is really hard to find a good balance

i have 7700 1000 288 12 selling at 13 45 130 and 1000 but i have empty seats each week so my prices will come down soon
to 12 40 120 and 1000

on the bright side i made in my last 4 games 141k, 162k, 155k and 134k all way above my league average of 124k and i clear about 100k a week

I'm surprised you don't make more than you do at the moment, but I'm sure that will change when you drop your prices. I seem to be making 171k each week from arena attendance, but just trying to see if I can boost that up in any way. I didn't see a reason to expand anything other than bleachers because they don't seem to be selling out yet, but I guess I'll find out how things are going after the price change. :)

Cheers for all the advice guys.
