Press release "econ"omics

Many managers don't realize the importance of press releases in Xpert Eleven. That's probably because they don't know that one press release every week adds 200k econ to their finances every week. Either that, or they are too lazy to type a few simple sentences after every match.

The rules are that one press release of more than 250 characters during a week (Monday to Sunday) means that the team gets a 200k econ bonus from the sponsor on Monday for the team's "media presence".

200k a week might not sound like much, but look at the numbers over a whole season. In a league with 8 teams (such as the Xpert leagues) there are 14 matches every season, which amounts to a total of 2.8 million econ, which could be spent on the skilled youngster that you were looking for but couldn't afford.

Be careful, though. Being caught writing press releases that are absolutely rubbish (such as copying a daily event mail) could result in you being docked 20-30 points from your Xpert rating. The easiest and safest way would be to write a short match summary after every match. This way, you would have a template in mind and be able to write one very quickly.

You can write as many press releases as you want, but they won't fetch you more money. However, you will get an extra Xpert rating point for each day that you write a press release on.
