Corrie Yee treats attention like inventory — something to be earned, measured, and monetized. The model and content creator joined Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour to break down how she built a business generating six figures a month, why her sights are set on $1 million a month, and how AI agents and automation quietly power her DMs.
The conversation doesn't stay on the spreadsheet, though. Yee opens up about the pressure women face online, why she wouldn't recommend OnlyFans to most creators, being bullied — and targeted for being Asian — growing up in a small New Mexico town, and the family that became the real reason behind her success.
About Corrie Yee
Corrie Yee is part of a new generation of creators who run their platforms like companies. She moved to Las Vegas with just $3,000 and built a personal brand spanning viral social content, a Playboy feature, and a subscription business most creators only dream about — including, as she shares in the episode, one fan who has spent $150,000.
What separates Yee is the systems thinking: chat automation, AI voice clones, and funnels that turn social media traffic into revenue. She is equally candid that the business is harder and more complicated than it looks — especially for women — which makes her take on the creator economy unusually honest.

Why This Conversation Matters
The creator economy is full of screenshots and short on honesty. Corrie Yee offers both the playbook — automation, funnels, AI — and the unvarnished costs, from online pressure to the parts of the business she would warn other women away from.
