The ideal mood is Playful and your daily task is to first create a social media profile and then constantly keep it updated. Your Sim can do this by updating their social media status. As you move through the first three levels, you will have many ways to increase your followers such as by sharing images, responding to mail, and interacting with other people.
Letting your Sim take a bubble bath is a great way to level up their Charisma skills. Once you complete Level 3, this Social Media career will branch into two specifications, Internet Personality and Public Relations.
