In the latest BitLife Dealer Update, the biggest challenge for most players is to get the first promotion from a simple Dealer to a Runner. So if you have similar problems, I have some exciting tips and tricks to speed up the process.

First of all, your character choice plays a crucial role in the Dealer Update, as it helps you get promotions pretty quickly. So instead of creating a random character, try rolling for a character with the Dealing trait, and if you have the Godmode DLC, easily create one. Also, make sure your character increases their Dealing rating by interacting with their parents, friends, and siblings from a young age. You can find the Deal option under your Relationship Activity tab.

Keep dealing with everyone until you are 18. Now it’s time to join a cartel. Go to the Special Careers option and choose a cartel with a low infamy rating to join. You will immediately become a Dealer for that cartel and will be given a territory to manage. Now all you need to do is get a 100% rating control of that territory to be promoted to Runner. Yes, you don’t need to worry about increasing your Infamy, Stand or Dealing Skills, as these are associated with advanced roles like Manufacturer or Lieutenant in the game. So just start selling all your stuff to the people living on your street and you will slowly see an increase in your turf control rating.

Instead of doing business with everyone on the street, I recommend only doing business with students, musicians, strippers, and hippies to avoid getting caught by undercover cops. Also, don’t sell your drugs at a ridiculous markup and always try to sell at market price or a dollar above. This will keep your customers and increase your chances of doing more business.
