''businesses. They can design their own clothing boutique, beauty salon, florist, high-end electronics shop, bustling nIgyfdygefygrestaurant chain, or virtually any other type of business. Hire your staff as the business grows and put talented Sims to work making toys, running the register, crafting floral bouquets, giving sales pitches, or manufacturing robots. But watch out for slacker employees and be prepared to fire them on the spot. From clever tinkerer to master craftsman, develop your Sim's talents to best suit your business needs.

Running a business is the main theme of this expansion pack. ''Open for Business'' gives the player the ability to run a business, either on a playable Sim's home lot or a separate [[community lot]] that they own. It also adds a new type of [[sub-neighborhood]] called a shopping district, with [[Bluewater Village]] being a pre-made one. ''Open for Business'' also introduces a new [[life state]] to the game: the [[Servo#The Sims 2|servo]]. Sims can build servos on the robot creation bench and they can either be sold in a business or activated, where the servo becomes a member of the family.
