The Simfluencer Career
The Simfluencer career won’t take up much of your Sim’s time, which is exactly why it’s considered a side hustle and not a full-time job. Therefore, if your Sim tends to be busy often taking care of their children, gardening, and fixing objects around the home, for example, this is just what they need as a relaxing job.
You can become a Simfluencer by joining the Simfluencer career just like you’d do with any other career path, opening your Sim’s phone, and selecting the ‘find a job‘ option.
Then, simply scroll down to find ‘Simfluencer.’ Next, you’ll have to choose between the day shift (5:30 am – 7:30 am) and the night shift (9 pm – 11 pm), and you’ll be able to either work from home or go to work. You are ineligible for vacation as a Simfluencer, but you have Sundays and Wednesdays off, and you can always call in sick.
Career Levels
The first step in your career as a Simfluencer is as a Nano-Simfluencer: You’ll get 36 Simoleons per hour, and you can get promoted once you reach Level 2 in the Entrepreneur and the Charisma skills. There are only three career positions available, meaning you can only go up the corporate ladder twice.
Once you reach Level 2, you’ll become a Macro-Simfluencer, which will require you to get Entrepreneur and Charisma to Level 4. Here you’ll be earning 55 Simoleons per hour.
Lastly, you’ll be able to become a Mega-Simfluencer once you reach Level 3. You’ll receive 74 Simoleons an hour and as a Mega-Simfluencer, you’ll occasionally receive commercial gifts in the mail. Your schedule will never change as you progress, only how much you earn.
You might also want to consider reaching the max level of the Entrepreneur skill (Level 5) since it’ll increase how much you earn per hour on a job. If you’re a Mega-Simfluencer, you’ll go from 74 Simoleons to 96 Simoleons per hour.
How To Post A Review In The Simfluencer Career
If you want to get promoted faster, you should always complete your daily work task of posting a review. This is pretty easy, but you have to know what you should be interacting with and how to upload it. Here’s how you can do it:
- Click on a review-worthy object and select the “Make Lifestyle Review” interaction – there’s no list explaining which objects you can review in The Sims 4, so you’ll have to use your best judgment and interact with what you’d expect to read reviews on in real life, objects such as cross-stitching kits, bikes, and such.
- Open your inventory – then select the “Make Lifestyle Review” interaction; your Sim will write it on their computer automatically; once they’re done, it’ll appear as a hard drive in your inventory.
- Press the hard drive and select “Upload Lifestyle Review” – selecting this option will make your Sims upload the review directly to their social media account; this will improve their follower account and boost their work performance.
