i see WAYYY to many new UGC creators give up after just a month or two.
let me remind you- the wildly successful people you see have been in this for a WHILE.
UGC is not a get rich quick scheme. it requires you to not only be a creator- but also a scriptwriter, editor,
🚨 UGC CREATORS 🚨
As a creative director, I have had the opportunity to look at HUNDREDS of portfolios. Here's things we look out for that 9/10 times turn us away ⬇️
- Too many animations (makes load times SUPER slow)
- Too WORDY! We don't need your life story. We want to see
i started UGC so my parents wouldn’t have to pay my rent. i’m still a student and im fortunate that they help me out- but i wanted to be able to take that burden off of them.
today alone i made more than my rent.

One of my favorite things is seeing different creators' UGC examples for the same brand, as it shows that each of us truly have our own unique energy and editing style that can’t be replicated.
UGC isn’t oversaturated- there's always different wants and needs across clients 😊
When it comes to UGC, remember: LESS telling, more SHOWING is key 🔑
Instead of talking to the camera and saying, “This moisturizer contains vitamin E & C, 10% AHA, and glycolic acid,”
… 🥱🥱🥱
Try applying it while you talk, or show before and after clips. Say something

How to make MORE while doing LESS as a UGC creator 💡⬇️
1️⃣ Increase your rates and learn to say NO. Since I’ve started UGC, the average price of 1 video has gone up exponentially. Don’t be scared to charge $150+ for one video and decline low offers- it helps raise the standard
I LOVE creating content for tech/AI/apps!! So cool to see a basic video come to life with a few edits.

Admin days are soo crucial! I took 3 HOURS on Tuesday to follow-up with clients, send off deliverables, revise my portfolio, and update my income tracker, & I have never felt more accomplished and clear-minded after.

I’ve been doing UGC for well over a year and a half now; seeing how people can make what used to take a month in just ONE WEEK makes my heart SO happy.
We’re finally getting paid what we deserve! Continue to keep advocating for rates that reflect the time and effort we put in
I’ve been seeing a lot of debate about if CapCut Pro is worth it and here’s my two cents …
1) Yes.
2) Why NOT?? It’s a tax write off! In order to grow your UGC business, or any business, you need to REINVEST. Use your money to make you MORE money.

The BEST way to set your clients up for success when offering multiple hooks? 👀
Have the video be evergreen (meaning it can be used anytime of the year and is more informational/general), and then have the hooks target specific audiences.
For example, let's say you're filming
