Requirement: Get Famous

Basemental Drugs has quite a bit of integration with this expansion pack.

Get In The Club
To get into the VIP club as a drug dealer, you can choose the “Explain Supply Need” interaction with the VIP bouncer. You can find the interaction alongside the other Bouncer Interactions for trying to get into the club.

If you are a mid to high level dealer you have a high chance of pulling this off.

Get Acquainted with Celebrities
Getting to know the celebrities can be a daunting task. Particularly introducing yourself to them, as all Sims seem to be very easily star-struck.

As long as you are a mid to high level dealer, introducing yourself to celebrities is way easier. The idea behind this is that the celebrities knows who’s who and are eager to get their hands on some drugs, so you have a much higher success rate in terms of introduction.

Note: There is no 100% guarantee that your Sim will manage to pull of an introduction to a celebrity Sim, but it is extremely likely. If it doesn’t work the first time around, wait it out a bit and try again.

It is a bit harder to jump straight into chatting about drugs with them, though, so my advice is to use quite a few Friendly social interactions to begin with before even going into the subject of drugs. It is not impossibly hard by any means, but it is harder than performing these interactions with “regular mortals”.

Celebrity Clients
Once you have managed to Seal the Deal with a celebrity, you will get some fame points. The higher level of the celebrity the more fame points you will get, meaning you need fewer Global Superstars on your client list than Noticeable Newcomers to get to rank 1 on the fame ladder.

To check who’s on your Celebrity Client List, click on your active dealer Sim, go to Customer Lists and select Celebrity Clients. These clients are not like regular clients in a couple of ways – first of all, they won’t call and invite themselves over to your place to buy drugs, they will rather invite you over to their homes (assuming they actually own a home in your world and aren’t homeless game generated celebrities).

They will not call you quite as frequently as regular customers, but every celebrity above rank 3 will also be able to buy Cocaine Bricks or Speed Packages (assuming your Cocaine or Amphetamine Dealing Sim is above level 3 in either of those two dealing skills).

They can only buy large quantities once per week.

Fame and Reputation
Once you have managed to get to Fame Level 1, I strongly suggest you going for the middle branch of the fame ladder, which is really the only one that makes sense for a drug dealer, as this is all about networking and making connections.

Once you are on level 1, you can earn fame simply by socializing with celebrities. I’d suggest you use this feature to climb up to rank 3 of the fame ladder. Once you are a Level 3 celebrity, reputation will also start factoring into the equation of how the general public perceives you.
