In the latest BitLife Dealer Update, the biggest challenge most players face is to get the first promotion from being a simple Dealer to a Runner. So, if you are facing similar issues, I have some exciting tips and tricks to speed up the process.
How to get a promotion as a Runner in BitLife
First and foremost, your character selection plays a vital role in the Dealer Update as it helps you to gain promotions pretty quickly. So, instead of creating a random character, try to roll for a character with the Dealing trait, and if you have the Godmode DLC, create one easily. Also, ensure your character increases their Dealing rating by dealing 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 turn 18. Now, it is time to join a cartel. Go to the Special Careers option and pick any cartel with a low infamy rating to join them. Immediately, you will become a Dealer of that cartel and will given a turf to handle. Now, all you have to do is get a 100% rating control of that turf to get promoted to a Runner. Yes, you do not need to worry about increasing your Infamy, Standing, or Dealing Skills, as they 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 begin to see an increase in the turf control rating.
Instead of dealing with everyone on the street, I recommend only dealing with college students, musicians, strippers, and hippies to avoid getting caught by undercover cops. Also, please don’t sell your drugs at a ridiculous margin, and always try to sell at the market price or a dollar above it. Doing this will allow you to retain your customers and increase the likelihood of doing more trade.
Keep dealing with people, and you will quickly get promoted to the position of a Runner within two to three years of joining the cartel.
