“SIMFORMER. Way to Success” is an online business simulation game for entrepreneurs

“SIMFORMER. Way to Success” is an online business simulation game designed to develop practical business skills of entrepreneurs and managers of small and medium businesses.

Dear beginner entrepreneur,

we are sure you have already read a lot of useful and interesting books about business. You may have already completed several courses and trainings in which various business trainers shared their knowledge and advice on how to build your business. Summing it up, you already have some theoretical baggage.

But there are several problems that are typical for almost ALL novice entrepreneurs and businesspeople, and if left unsolved, all the available baggage of their theoretical knowledge will remain a useless abstraction:

1. Lack of experience and practical skills to create and develop a business.
2. Skills are acquired only in practical activities, experience is acquired only in the commission and understanding of your own mistakes.
3. You can’t acquire experience and skills, since you are either starting or have recently started your first business.
4. Learning from your own mistakes in your real business is VERY painful and expensive.

According to statistics:

- 80% of new businesses are closed in the first 2 years of their existence.

- 70% of the closing reasons are the managerial mistakes made by founders, thus fatal for business and usually caused by lack of experience and management skills.

- Typical standard errors, most often leading to significant losses or loss of business. There are about 50.

What can you do? 

How to avoid the mistakes done by others? 

How to avoid experimenting on your own business without substantial financial loss? 

And how to gain (at least) basic managerial and entrepreneurial skill set?

Oddly enough, aircraft pilots will answer this question best of all. Nobody will allow a pilot to the helm of an airliner and will not allow to risk the plane and the lives of passengers. Until, pilot “flies” hundreds of hours in a flight simulator. Only after having received good practical experience in managing a virtual airliner, the pilot gains access to the real plane. Hence, aviation has the lowest accident and death statistics, unlike business.

In order not to give you the opportunity to make an accident in your business, we have created for you a professional business simulation game "SIMFORMER. Way to Success". This is a kind of antidote to your making the most dangerous and common mistakes in your business.

You will make the most important strategic and tactical decisions that determine the development of your company and its competitiveness. As in real life, in a multiplayer business simulation you have to cooperate and compete with thousands of real people who manage their virtual companies like you. It is this interaction with the live market that provides the realism and practical value of training in Simformer business simulation. That is why, Simformer business simulators are actively used by large companies and business schools. Prove to yourself and everyone around you that a company under your leadership can not only survive, but also become a global leader in its industry.

You can choose any of the hundreds of possible industries closest to your real business.
You can develop a small business and focus on its efficiency and profit, or you can build a global corporation focusing on its capitalization, everything is in your hands - both strategy and tactics.

Create a virtual prototype of your future business, experiment, test business models, make mistakes, correct the situation and make mistakes again. This is what business simulators are needed for in order to gain experience without risking your real business. Good luck, success in business!
