在成長過程中,黑利·霍夫曼·史密斯對自己的未來事業(yè)有過各種各樣的夢想,包括成為演員、成為歌手,或者擁有自己的脫口秀節(jié)目。
她從來沒有想過,她會獨立創(chuàng)業(yè),會成為TikTok網(wǎng)紅,每月賺3萬美元。
但霍夫曼·史密斯的職業(yè)生涯一開始更加傳統(tǒng)。
霍夫曼·史密斯來自美國丹佛,本科就讀于科羅拉多大學博爾德分校(University of Colorado Boulder)。在此期間,她創(chuàng)辦了一個名為“沒有夢想地生活”(Live Without Dreams)的非營利組織,向發(fā)展中國家的女孩捐贈書籍。
大三時,她轉學到布朗大學(Brown University),在那里學習了更多關于創(chuàng)業(yè)的知識,并創(chuàng)立了史上第一家女性創(chuàng)業(yè)孵化器。她于2018年畢業(yè),重新搬回科羅拉多州,在那里的一家初創(chuàng)公司找了份工作,但后來辭職了,去尋找更有創(chuàng)意的職業(yè)。
2020年2月,她在新冠疫情剛開始時搬到了紐約市,創(chuàng)辦了一家文案公司,但仍然沒有得到百分之百的滿足感。
當時23歲的霍夫曼·史密斯依舊想進入創(chuàng)作領域,所以她選擇了TikTok。
她開始自己拍視頻,為觀眾提供靈性和實現(xiàn)目標方面的建議。也向觀眾展示她在紐約市的生活片段。
霍夫曼·史密斯向《財富》雜志表示:“我會在下午拍TikTok視頻,但為了能夠去到一個可以拍視頻的地方,我會跟自己說:‘黑利,你今天早上得給客戶寫五篇文案,就能夠拍TikTok了?!?/p>
她的TikTok粉絲讓她有信心推出一個關于個人成長的品牌,幫助別人尋找幸福,實現(xiàn)個人和職業(yè)目標。
如今,霍夫曼·史密斯是一名全職創(chuàng)業(yè)者,她說自己每個月可以賺3萬美元。
改變職業(yè)軌道
隨著關注她的Tiktok的人越來越多,開始有粉絲請她提供指導。她也開始專注于分享她的精神信仰,以及這些信仰如何幫助她找到自信、實現(xiàn)成功。
霍夫曼·史密斯說,她一直很有靈性,但自己從未公開分享過。后來她意識到,公開自己的信仰或許能夠幫助其他人。
通過靈性連接
霍夫曼·史密斯經(jīng)常談到天使數(shù)字,也就是你經(jīng)常看到111或555這樣的重復數(shù)字。她解釋道:“你或許會說這是巧合,但它不是?!?/p>
她還宣講了EFT敲擊的好處,EFT是“情感釋放術”(emotional freedom technique)的簡稱。
霍夫曼·史密斯指出:“這里的概念是,我們通過敲擊中醫(yī)里的經(jīng)絡點,來清除與某些信念或記憶相關的情感電荷或能量?!?/p>
支持者說,這種敲擊可以讓你重新回到某段充滿情緒的記憶里,點擊它,清除它。治療師已經(jīng)將這種方法用于治療患者的創(chuàng)傷、恐懼、痛苦和不安全感。霍夫曼·史密斯不是執(zhí)業(yè)治療師或醫(yī)療專業(yè)人士。
霍夫曼·史密斯說:“從神經(jīng)科學的角度來看,打開你的頭腦,迎接新的可能性,會改變你體驗現(xiàn)實的方式?!?/p>
一個月掙3萬美元
霍夫曼·史密斯的主要收入來源是內容創(chuàng)作,通過與亞馬遜(Amazon)的Alexa、CosmoLiving和Bumble等品牌合作獲得報酬。
她還提供一對一的私教和小班指導,也為粉絲開設其他課程。
她有很多粉絲,而且數(shù)量還在不斷增長?;舴蚵な访芩乖贗nstagram上有12.7萬名粉絲,TikTok上有40.49萬名,YouTube上有1.14萬名,YouTube上的廣告是她收入的一部分。
她還主持了自己的播客《與黑利·霍夫曼·史密斯的大型對話》(Big Conversations With Haley Hoffman Smith),播客的主要內容是談論商業(yè)策略、為生活帶來富足,以及如何治愈限制自我的意念。
霍夫曼·史密斯還通過The Mighty Network建立了一個名為Dreamaway的私人小組,提供不同價位的訂閱服務。每個周日,她都會為這個小組舉辦閱讀活動,為接下來的一周積蓄能量,成員們能夠參加研討會,討論各種各樣的話題,比如感恩和炫富。
她還會組織主持Slingshot Sessions課程,訂閱者可以在活動中共同習練EFT技巧。這種課程90分鐘一節(jié),定價為每人111美元。
Patreon上能夠預約一對一的電話和指導,這個應用程序上訂閱霍夫曼·史密斯內容的月費從22.22美元到333美元不等。一對一的培訓電話每小時收費750美元。

成功的建議
當被問及她會給進入創(chuàng)業(yè)領域的人什么建議時,霍夫曼·史密斯強調要為客戶服務。

Growing up, Haley Hoffman Smith had a variety of dreams for her future career, including becoming an actress or a singer, or having her own talk show.
She never imagined she’d be earning $30,000 a month as a solo entrepreneur and TikTok influencer.
But Hoffman Smith began her career on a more traditional note.
Originally from Denver, Hoffman Smith went to University of Colorado Boulder as an undergrad. There she founded a nonprofit called Live Without Dreams, which donated books to girls in developing countries.
She transferred to Brown in her junior year, where she learned more about entrepreneurship and founded the first-ever women's entrepreneurship incubator. In 2018, she graduated and moved back to Colorado, where she took a job at a startup but later quit to pursue a more creative path.
In February 2020, at the start of the pandemic, she moved to NYC and started a copywriting agency but still didn't feel completely fulfilled.
Hoffman Smith, then 23, still wanted to be in the creators' space, so she turned to TikTok.
She started making self-help videos, offering tips on spirituality and achieving goals. She also offered viewers glimpses of her life in New York City.
“I would film TikToks during the afternoon, but in order to get to a place where I could film TikToks, I was like ‘OK, Haley, you have to write, like, five client articles this morning, and then it's TikTok time,’” Hoffman Smith tells Fortune.
Her TikTok audience gave her the confidence to launch a personal development brand to help others find happiness and achieve personal and professional goals.
Today, Hoffman Smith is a full-time entrepreneur and says she makes $30,000 a month from her businesses.
Career shift
As her TikToks got more views, Hoffman Smith started receiving coaching requests from her followers. She also began to focus on sharing her spiritual beliefs, and how they helped her find confidence and success.
Hoffman Smith says she's always been spiritual, but she never shared it publicly. Eventually, she realized that opening up about her beliefs could help other people.
Connecting through spirituality
Hoffman Smith often talks about angel numbers, which is when you see repeating numbers such as 111 or 555. "It's like you could call it a coincidence, but it's not," Hoffman Smith explains.
She also evangelizes the benefits of EFT tapping, which is short for "emotional freedom technique."
"The notion is that we're using meridian points, which are very much based in Chinese medicine, to clear the emotional charge or the energy associated with certain beliefs or memories," Hoffman Smith says.
Proponents of tapping say the practice allows you to go back to a memory charged with emotion, tap into it, and clear it. Therapists have used this technique on patients to help with trauma, fear, distress, and insecurities. Hoffman Smith isn't a licensed therapist or medical professional.
"Opening your mind to new possibilities changes how you experience your reality from a neuroscience perspective," Hoffman Smith says.
How Hoffman Smith makes $30,000 a month
Hoffman Smith's primary source of income is being a content creator, and she's been compensated for partnering with brands including Amazon Alexa, CosmoLiving, and Bumble.
She also does one-on-one coaching and group sessions, and offers other courses to her audience.
That audience is big—and growing. Hoffman Smith has amassed 127,000 followers on Instagram, 404,900 followers on TikTok, and 11,400 followers on YouTube, where she earns revenue through advertising.
She's also the host of her own podcast, Big Conversations With Haley Hoffman Smith, where she talks about business strategies, inviting abundance into your life, and healing self-limiting beliefs.
Hoffman Smith also has a private community via The Mighty Network called the Dreamaway, which offers subscriptions at different price points. Every Sunday, Hoffman Smith offers the group an energy reading for the week ahead, and members can join workshops that address various topics, like gratitude and manifesting money.
She also hosts Slingshot Sessions, where subscribers can practice EFT tappings as a group. These 90-minute sessions are priced at $111 per person.
One-on-one calls and coaching can be accessed through Patreon, where access to Hoffman Smith's content ranges from $22.22 to $333 per month. A one-on-one coaching call costs $750 an hour.
Her entrepreneurship has afforded Hoffman Smith a life in New York City and has allowed her to continue pursuing her dreams. In May she released her first song, "Worth the Flight." "I've been able to return to my original dream, which was music," Hoffman Smith says.
Advice for success
When asked about advice she would give to people entering the entrepreneurship space, Hoffman Smith emphasizes serving your customers.
"The more you can focus on how you're serving others, the better," she says.
She also emphasizes the importance of genuinely enjoying what you do for finding success.
"Make sure it is something you truly enjoy doing. I don't think that thinking from the perspective of what makes you the most money is the best way to go about it," Hoffman Smith says. "The more that you help the world and love what you do, the more abundance you attract."
