- Focus early sales on low‑risk clients to build cash reserves.
- Balance hiring staff with upgrading hideouts to avoid overspending.

- Plan routes away from known police hotspots.
- Keep a small stock on hand to mitigate losses if a run fails.

03 / THE GUIDE
Influence Scaling
Measure the influence gain from singular client sales versus gang wholesale deals. Prioritize the method that offers the highest influence per dollar spent on security.
- Upgrade labs gradually to match your cash flow.
- Train assistants only after securing a steady sales network.
