This is my second ever guide, so apologies if it isn't very good.

I would like to give a huge shoutout to my friend Sellyme for telling me the basics on what to do to earn a profit. This was in my backlog for a while since recent updates made the game feel impossible (before the dev released 1.1.3 and the beginner's guide) but hey, now i've done it, so i want to write a guide for other like-minded achievement hunters. :)

This game will take you about 5-10 minutes, maybe shorter or longer depending on your speed or if the game decides to not trigger your achievements. (if this is the case, close out and reopen the game)

• Start by pausing the game. This (obviously) stops the flow of time so your money won't change (usually for the worse) while you're trying to use this guide.
  
• Place a medium desk, as per the screenshot. Under the drop-down menu, select Investors.

• Go to the Hiring menu. You'll already have Investors selected - hire the first 4 guys.

First Hire
Hire your first employee


Startup Phase
Hire at least 3 employees

• In the 'Upgrades' menu off to the side, buy the Lobby upgrade.

Office Upgrade
Upgrade the office to help the business grow

• Place a medium desk, as per the screenshot. Under the drop-down menu, select Legal.

• Go to the Hiring menu and go to Legal. Hire the first 4 guys.
  
• In the aforementioned Upgrades menu, select Motivation, then buy a Pizza Party.

Morale Boost
Boost employee morale with a motivational tool

• Place a large desk this time, as per the screenshot. Under the drop-down menu, select IT.

• Go to the hiring menu and hire all 6 IT applications.
  
• Unpause the game.
  
  • Sometimes, but not always, both of these achievements will pop:

Turn a Profit
Make a net profit of at least $1


Most Profitable
Generate over $10,000 in profit during a single day

• If they didn't, that's okay - you'll get them shortly.
• Wait for one (or two, sometimes) work days to come and go. You should get a 200k profit.

Big Bank
Have $100,000 dollars in cash

• Buy yourself the remaining lobby upgrades. (Kitchen, Office Space, More Office Space)

Fully Upgraded
Reach maximum upgrades for the office

• Place 2 large desks wherever they fit (doesn't matter much now.) Either make them both Investors or do 1 Investors 1 HR. I'm unsure if the choice really matters :p
  
  • If you still need a screenshot:

• Go to the hiring menu and hire as much as you can.

Not So Small Company
Hire your first 25 employees

• Go back to the Motivation tab (upgrades sidebar) and buy everything.

Morale Risen
Use morale boosters 5 times

• Wait for one or two work days - watch the Work number at the top and wait for it to go over 150.

Takin' Care of Business
Employees must work over 150 times in a single day

• Click on a random employee that has a green outline.
  
• 3 options will come up next to their name - hit Raise.
  
• Raise their salary by ~3000%. I strongly recommend an autoclicker.
  
  • If the achievement doesn't trigger, click the same employee again and raise their salary by a little bit - ~100% should do the job, but you can always do it multiple times.

Happiest Employees
Reach a happiness rating of over 8.0

• Click on a random employee (it can be the same one.)
  
• The same options will appear - this time, hit Fire.

You're Fired
Fire an employee, you soulless monster


Completionist
Complete every milestone in the game

This guide was last updated on April 26th, 2019. Obviously this game is still getting frequent updates (as of writing it is at 1.1.3) so i'll try to keep this guide updated as the strategies change.

Currently this game is restricted, meaning the achievements/perfect game will not count for your steam achievement showcase counts, but they will pop up and register on achievement trackers like AStats, completionist.me and SteamHunters.

i'm having trouble figuring out how to make an image redirect you to a link when clicked so for now, join an achievement hunting discord! it's very good:
