A huge part of this system is the retail perk points that are rewarded when you do retail interactions and grow your business. You can purchase retail perks to make your business run more smoothly, and grow your customer base.
How to Gain Perk Points
There are a number of ways for you to earn perk points in The Sims 4: Get to Work. The first is to do any retail interaction with customers, so any sales interactions. This will give your sims 5 points.
Next, making a sale is going to get you 15 retail perk points. Finally, you’ll get 10 retail perk points to restock an item. Unfortunately, you won’t get points when your employees are doing the restocking or selling for you, only when you are actively working on your business.
