Do this in order
- Do not buy a manager just because the button exists; first confirm the source is carrying your run.
- Hire the manager for the source you would otherwise babysit the most.
- After automation, spend active play time unlocking or upgrading the next source.
Ready to move on when
- The source already earns meaningful cash.
- The manager removes repeated manual work.
- Offline or away-time income now supports your next upgrade target.
