Yes, absolutely. 5,000 sounds low. This includes reality TV “stars.” All sorts of niche celebrities are (or were) on there.

- bruce511 2y agoI get the "15 minutes of fame" thing, but it passes quickly. I mean, sure, the current Survivor season might spit out 20 people who might make a few people happy this year. But is there really a market for Jane from season 8? Like a couple hundred a day? Perhaps I'm wrong and all kinds of people are plunking down $50 for birthday messages all day long. (So much for a depressed economy...) Clearly I'm not the target market and most ideas seem dumb when you can't imagine using a service yourself. Maybe there are 50000 customers a day dropping this cash.
- al_borland 2y agoBut are those D tier “celebrities” getting 10 requests per day? I really have no idea, but I can’t imagine people lining up to spend $145+ on birthday wishes from Kiaya, from MTV’s Teen Mom. Or is this why so many people are in debt?
- Bayaz 2y agoSome do very well, though I don’t know if any single person is consistently getting 10 per day. I used to follow the 90 Day Fiance subreddit and folks were always linking to videos from the more well-liked cast members. Several have over $100,000 in revenue if the sites tracking these sort of things can be believed.
