"I Invest in Real Estate, Crypto, and Stocks" — An Interview with OnlyFans Model AISULTANA

Hi, my nickname is AISULTANA, and I've been successfully working with OnlyFans for the past 5 years :) 

In 2020, I was working as a pharmacist at a military unit, and at some point I realized that wasn't going to give me what I wanted. So I started growing my Instagram and TikTok. One day I received a job offer related to OnlyFans, and I've been creating content for 4 years now.

Most of the time I'm abroad, though I regularly come back to Ukraine to visit family. I've lived in Europe — France, Italy, Germany. This winter I'm planning to go to Bali, same as last year. I also want to travel around Japan. The job gives me the freedom to travel wherever I want. 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, when many people were looking for new income streams, OnlyFans experienced a massive boom. The number of users and content creators surged. Another change I've noticed is the variety of content. Before, creators were mostly 18+ models — now there are tons of creative people sharing music, artwork, and more. 

There used to be chances. Now, without the help of specialists, initial investment, and a strategy — the window of opportunity is very narrow. I recommend focusing on finding an agency you can work with long-term and happily. 

No one close to me, but I closely follow the top creators in the industry. I'm always happy when new faces appear. It's great! 

It all depends on the model and her work ethic. On average — up to six months. 

There are plenty of restrictions, and one could talk about them for a long time.

In Ukraine, the creation and distribution of erotic content is prohibited, so I don't create content targeting Ukraine. I live and work abroad, so these restrictions don't apply to me.

I do have haters, like in any field, but that doesn't mean they affect my work. At some point it used to get to me, but not anymore. Maybe because there are far fewer of them now.

Once, a user on the platform — one of my subscribers — asked me to film a custom video involving a Bible. I won't go into details, but it's the strangest request I've ever received.

I use both organic traffic from all available social media platforms and paid traffic. I'd rather not share the details.

I work with a top-tier agency :) 

I track all traffic sources and detailed data for each of them: country, age, payment amounts. Without that, scaling is nearly impossible. 

TikTok isn't a priority right now — with the new algorithms, videos don't go organic anymore, you have to build everything from scratch. We're testing paid promotion, but no details yet.

It's all about a comprehensive approach. You can't rely solely on Instagram — you need to work across all channels.

OnlyFans, like anything else, requires work. It's not a magic wand that brings in a pile of money. You need to create content every single day and figure out how to hook those «wealthy guys» and stay interesting. If you want great results — you have to put in a lot of work.

The platform takes 20%, payment processors from 2%. Overall, I lose quite a lot. 

On average between $18,000 and $25,000, depending on the month and the season. 

Of course, there were different situations depending on the season and other factors. From the very start I was already earning well, because I began working with an agency right away.

The US is at the top. As it has been before, and most likely will remain in the future. 

A business, absolutely! I want to expand, build an ecosystem around my own brand. Scaling, merch for fans, consulting for other models — there's still so much to be done.

Friends and family are supportive. In the beginning, my boyfriend was very encouraging, and he still helps with content creation. My parents are also fine with it, although I'm not sure they fully understand what I do.

That's not great, to say the least :) I believe everyone should have equal opportunities and rights. Paying taxes is normal and the right thing to do, and it would be wonderful if everyone respected one another. 

In 5 years, I plan to earn 10 times more than I do now. 

I don't just spend money on travel in this life. I invest a lot, look at other projects, try different roles. Let me put it this way: if OnlyFans suddenly disappeared, I'd definitely have plenty to keep me busy.

I invest in real estate, crypto, and stocks.
