#UGC
pay transparency: I’m a part time
#contentcreator
and this is how much I’m on track to earn (not actually receive).
January - 5 collabs: 9 edited videos, 2 sets of raw footage
February - 4 collabs: 7 edited videos, 2 sets of raw footage
And… it’s only February 1 🥹

If you’re new to this, I started in June. It *usually* takes time to build up to this. Don’t believe all the creators out there saying they made $7k or whatever their first month.

🚨 I don’t know what
#ugccreator
needs to hear this, but record all of your voiceover facing the camera so that your audio sounds consistent throughout the whole video. When you add in a screenshot of a website and your voice suddenly sounds different, it’s SUPER distracting.

This is your sign that it’s ok to decline an inbound. Full stop.
In my case, today, the brand just wasn’t…. me. No issues with the agency, but I didn’t feel right creating for their client. And that’s ok.

I might actually cry. This feedback means so much to me, I can't even tell you. When I first started as a
#ugccreator
, speaking directly to the camera felt SO uncomfortable and I thought I was terrible at it. And now, 8 months in, it's where I do my best work. Who knew? 🤯🥹

Do you ever come across a

It’s been a really great day. Submitted a

Seriously grateful. And SHOOK.

I’m so proud of this one. The client sent me 2 scripts and I thought of a 3rd concept. They loved what I pitched (yay for upselling) and approved my script without edits, then approved the final video with only 1 minor edit.

THIS is why “just b-roll” bothers me so much. Each clip could take a while to set up, not to mention you likely need several takes just to get that 1-2 seconds you need. It’s a lot, and I wish more agencies understood this or at least acknowledged this.

Posted 2 TikTok Shop videos yesterday. One I had the product but it was a gift so it was wrapped (used Amazon screenshot to compare price), the other I didn’t have at all but figured out who the original seller and designer of it was so I chose that shop. Finally some movement!
