With OF, i imagine people susbscribe because they feel a “closer relationship” with the content creator.
So I suppose that is adding value.
The other way to sell something for $, that is available for free is: to sell to an audience that dont know it is available for free!

Check out how Ti Lopez, Dan Lock, Kevin David, etc. They're in the business of selling courses, not making you rich. What they teach in their courses is available for free on YouTube, but people still buy it because not only do they fall for the trap of potentially millions of dollars, but they also love the convenience of a course that goes from 0 - 100, even though it's trash.

why people pay for netflix when they can see or download movies online for free?
same logic... you have exclusive content and added value with netflix.
On onlyfans i think models add the value of chatting with subscribers wich isnt something done in porn sites..but they dont really promote it through that

Build a personal relationship. Invade their neighborhood, join their church, find their weaknesses, promise to solve their problems, sell a product over the hype. That's how most businesses work nowadays.

convenience is the ultimate answer !
you can learn to cut your hair by yourself and avoid going to the barber, meaning you can cut it for free.
you could learn to do your own pluming and you will be doing it for free.
And so on. but in reality you are not doing it for free, because the time it will take you to learn each skill and try to practice doing it in your own is worth a lot of money that you could have made if you stick to what you do the best and you would then pay for all of these services and have a bit left for you.
so why am i talking about this now. well if a person doesn't know about some service or product that they are on need for, and it is free.
they will be willing to pay you for:
1.teaching them about the service or the product
2.bundling all of the product that they need on one place or list.
3.garanties based on your expert recommendation.
in general people will always choose to pay money if it will allow them not to avoid wasting their time.
And as a general rule when it come to selling product that are already free, try to add a tiny bit of value that could help a certain type of people avoid wasting a lot of time trying to use the same free product while having that added value of yours.
