This Sleep-Influencer Is Making Tens Of Thousands Of Dollars Per Month From The Comfort Of His Bed
Imagine making thousands of dollars from the comfort of your own bed. TikTok “sleepfluencer” Jakey Boehm has managed to change this unbelievable business model from a dream to reality.
The twenty-eight-year-old TikToker is from Australia and has over five hundred and sixty thousand followers on the platform. How did he get so many?
Well, by allowing the world to watch him sleep.
In fact, “sleepfluencing” is when people live-stream themselves sleeping for the world to see.
TikTok allows viewers to chat with others in the stream and send gifts to the video creator. So, sleepfluencers aim to create a kind of bizarre sense of community while also receiving a nice kickback.
Although, Jakey Boehm has revolutionized the sleepfluencing game. First of all, his room looks like it is straight out of an arcade.
It is equipped with tons of LED color-changing lights, neon signs, inflatables, and bubbles. How he manages to fall asleep in that environment is still a mystery to us.
Moreover, instead of just letting viewers watch him slumber like numerous other TikTokers, he created a sort of game around the live stream.

Jakey developed a unique program script that scans the live stream chat board for specific words. So, if a user types the correct word, it will trigger a funny noise or booby trap to wake him up.
The system is ingenious since it keeps viewers engaged and on the edge of their seats without becoming bored. And, for Jakey, the constant interaction drives up his ultimate payout.
He has actually become one of the top fifty streamers on all of TikTok and is within the top thirty in Australia.
Moreover, according to Business Insider, Jakey earned a whopping thirty-four thousand dollars in just the month of May.
“It is seriously life-changing money. My first week, I made about five thousand dollars,” Jakey said in an interview with the publication.
