The higher you get in Schedule 1, the point eventually comes when running your empire alone is no longer efficient. Dealers and distributors are then needed to maximize the profits while allowing you time to look after crafting, expansion, and meeting suppliers.
One of the initial Downtown dealers you will be able to unlock is Brad Crosby, who will become especially useful if used with the right customers.
This tutorial contains how to unlock Brad Crosby and most lucrative customers to assign to him for maximum revenue.
Why Brad Crosby is Important in Downtown
Brad Crosby operates in the Downtown area, where there is a more urban and experimental client base than before in areas like Uptown or Suburbs. Exotic blends and strange effects are absolutely adored by Downtown clients, so your mixer will have to be worked hard to create specially tailored strains.
Assigning the right customers to Brad ensures steady sales and highest satisfaction, making his cut (20%) steady profit without wasting product on inadequately matched likes.

Preferred Effects: Schizophrenic, Toxic, Calming
A niche but highly devoted buyer willing to pay top prices when his unusual preferences are met.

A useful customer who buys almost everything you show him, and therefore one of Brad’s most reliable options.

Kevin Oakley
Favorite Effects: None (works with almost everything)
Another all-purpose buyer, best for selling excess stock that doesn’t comply with specialist demand.
Jennifer Rivera
Favorite Effects: Shrinking, Slippery, Toxic
Good for testing out more exotic combinations since she enjoys off-the-wall results.
Greg Figgle
Preferred Effects: Euphoric, Tropic Thunder, Toxic
A profitable repeat customer who aids Brad’s talent in handling rare blends.
How to Unlock Brad Crosby
Brad Crosby is unlocked after you have progressed far enough through the game. Initially, you have to reach rank Hustler I, which unlocks the Downtown district for your access. Subsequently, the most crucial thing is developing a relationship with one of the three individuals: Randy Caulfield, Greg Figgle, or Eugene Buckley. To do this, you can give them a free sample, and then some good trades later to cement the business relationship.
Once that’s done, Brad will become a prospective dealer in your list. You can find him east of the Motel Room safehouse, under the parking lot. Look for the green tent there and knock to meet him. You will have to pay him a $2,000 signing bonus when you hire him, and he will also add a 20% commission to all sales. From then on, Brad will see to distribution in Downtown, allowing you more time to focus on expansion and craft.
