The first step to becoming a UGC creator is NOT create a portfolio. It’s STUDY ADS. I naturally love to study things so I didn’t realize I did this until way after the fact.
Here’s the 4 places I recommend🧵:
Yesterday I sold 300 units of ONE item. 2 videos went viral within 24 hours. One is of my husband and the comments are “t-Rex hands”😂 My husband isn’t on socials so he’s laughing about that!
I made almost $2000 in one day. TikTok shop is changing my life.
Your goal doesn’t need to be $10K, $15K, or $20K as a UGC creator. I know you see that a lot. I have 3 kids and homeschool. UGC is freelancing so it’s trading my time for money. I’m not looking to work 16 hour days nor can I. An extra $500, $1K, $3K are great goals!
I’ve always aimed for that elusive $10K month…
I’ve hit $7Kish with UGC. But it required alot of my time. I went into TikTok shop with a goal of $1000. That was it.
I made $40,000 in 2 months. Sold over $300K for brands. Beyond gratefull!🥲
Several brands purchased my Holiday/Q4 bundle with a total of 16 videos for $750! This included: 2 Concepts, 4 Hooks, and 2 CTAs.
This is how I kept the process organized when editing in CapCut & delivering the content 🧵
#ugccommunity
I started posting in TikTok shop on November 1st. Mainly green screen videos. Only at the end of November did I post actual product videos. I focus on the same products over and over, creating variations.
Brands—get on TikTok shop.
Creators—get on TikTok shop.
I felt imposter syndrome when I got on Twitter. I felt like every knew more than me and as the community grew I felt like I wasn’t doing enough. I realized…not a lot of people talk about the struggle it is to have a UGC business AND be a mom. It’s HARD.

🔥3 Ways To Find A Brand’s Email for UGC (and not get ghosted! 👻)🔥
1. Go to google and type in “[Brand Name] Influencer Manager LinkedIn” (this hot tip is directly from
@creatorwizard
and has been a game changer!)
So we just found out that TikTok shop is closing down business accounts that are linked to TikTok shop seller without selling their own products.
We don’t know if they will shut down all accounts or how they’re doing it.
YOUR GOAL: build a personal brand to get to 5K👏🏽
Someone said “Hey, unfortunately, your rates are out of our budget. I understand them though as you're a working mom and such.” My rates aren’t what they are bc I’m a “working mom”. It’s bc I understand creative strategy and paid media. Out of budget was $20 so I’m good lol
Just saw a thread on how to “find DIRT cheap UGC video ads for $20” and “stop paying $100”. Advice: go to Fiverr and negotiate their rates to $20 because their easy to get their prices down. He came up on my feed bc some UGC creators follow him
Submitted 3 videos to a highly reputable, well established agency that just started using remote creators and they didn’t need revisions!🙌🏽 Phew it was a lot😮💨 and I’m glad they liked everything!
Top Reasons Why You’re Not Getting Brands 🪡
1. You’re portfolio videos are mainly organic/trending videos you see on Tik Tok instead of videos that are marketing & sales focused. STUDY ADS. Master your craft.
This is a new TikTok business account with 2 videos. I’ve sold almost $3K in 3 days (1st post was Friday). This account is faceless.
You don’t need 5K followers.
You just need to know how to solve problems.
This is your sign if you think you can’t do this with low followers!
AirBNB UGC is huge right & it’s not a focus for me.
Honestly it’s bc I have 3 kids and 1) hopping airbnbs sounds like a nightmare 2) I’d have to find a sitter to watch them so I can go. I always ask myself “What is correct FOR ME?”Maybe a couple for hubby & I tho👀

How to use
#ChatGPT
as a UGC Creator🌟
1. Type in [type of product/service] then TikTok script. Also try social media post and creative brief.
2. Simplify it by typing: Explain it to me like a 3rd grader
Here’s an example 👇🏽
Y’all please stop just commenting on anyone saying they need UGC. Here’s a fake account. How do I know? Well they JUST started to post in April & have 18K fake followers. But also the video they stole from a creator on Tik tok and posted it as a reel. Ballsy.
Sometimes don’t feel like I’m doing enough when I see people saying they pitched 100 brands and worked 12 hours but didn’t feel like work. With THREE kids, balancing my work and my family it mentally & physically exhausting. Mom UGC creators, you’re doing enough🫶🏽

I preach to become a UGC creator because I’ve tried multiple businesses and UGC was the one where I was able to make a consistent income. I’ve been the mom back at work after baby, crying & pumping in the break room, away from her baby 10+ hrs/day. It can be different.
The key to being a successful UGC creator is consistency. It’s simple but even when it’s “slow”, or it feels like it’s just not going to work for you, or you feel defeated, you keep going. All business is long game. Look at your goals and align your actions to them.
1. Build rapport (“How are you? Where are you from?”)
2. Lead the call. “So tell me a bit about your brand and products”
3. Whats working? Whats not working?
4. Who’s your ideal audience?
5. What does success look like?
These Tasks & Rewards on TikTok shop are so good!
$245 dollars just for completing the tasks. (This doesn’t include commission)
Most of the videos I create take me less than 10 minutes. I pre-sell items before receiving them and some I don’t even own🥰
Today
@mike_rama7
sent an email with an action item for UGC creators. I implemented it immediately. Just received my first order for this deal!🙌🏽 Also received an inquiry on my site!
If you’re a brand, this bundle I’m offering is a steal! Only 9 spots left!
My magic is that I’ve made videos in 10 minutes or less, I don’t have most of the items I market, AND sold this much on TT shop. My whole thing was EASE. I’m a homeschool mom of 3 kids. This is for income w/o having to film like I do for UGC😎 I also presell things in transit👏🏽
Spending the weekend seeing if I can get my
@facebook
account of 18 years back😭 I’m a believer of everything is for a reason AND still sucks seeing this.
What is two factor for if all they had to do was add an email to change the password😒
This is my second TikTok shop account. I made over $1K with 5 videos. The products were not Christmas focused. 2 products.
You CAN make money with TikTok shop on a new business TikTok account. This account is also faceless🙂
Sometimes you just need other eyes on your content❤️
@Kaylaj0302
It’s part of business. That’s why I do research and note: are they hiring creators? What’s a problem I can provide a solution for? Am I speaking to a decision maker? I do agree I‘ve seen creators charging $200+ a video but none are DR driven. Just pretty🙃
I’ve generated $2000 in revenue on TikTok shop for an item I don’t even own. I get sales for it daily.
I’ve done this for multiple products.
I’ve also sold 3 walking pads/treadmills with 2 videos and I don’t even have it yet! I was just sharing the deal I found.
Bloopers of me trying to film but my baby is talking to himself in his room and starts talking every time I talk😅 This is the life of a mom working from home with 3 kids🫣

UGC Creators: Your portfolio can't just be repurposed tik tok videos. Or IG videos. If you're wondering why you're not getting brands the reason may be your portfolio. Step 1 isn't to build a portfolio. (I also used to say this but there's a step before that!)
Increase

deals by doing this: Make 5 videos for your portfolio that are direct response driven (strong hook—visual, verbal, text, problem aware, USPs/value props, and a CTA). Brands want conversions. Aesthetic videos aren’t gonna do it.
Excerpt from scripted content for a client😅 I had to re-record multiple times because my kids were playing & then they went outside which I could hear them still but you couldn’t on camera🙌🏽 Also a plane passed by (we live near an airport), train passed, and sirens🥲

I will consistently talk about TikTok shop just like I did UGC in March 2022. It’s changed my life and I know it’s changed the lives of BOTH brands and creators.
I’ve had ALOT of family things happen including sudden death & home invasion and my brother and dad were home.
I’ve been adding the “gifting yourself” angle with all my clients. As a mom of 3 kids I’m usually last on people’s lists (if at all)😅 More people shop for themselves during the holiday than you may think (especially now). Have you tested this angle?

UGC creators telling me I inspired them to get started because they saw me, a Latina woman, 34 years old, 3 kids, married, homeschooling, doing this and still being present with my family🥹🥰 Grateful🫶🏽
If your views are low, or CTR dropped, or engagement down… remember that 19 children and 2 adults were just k!lled in (another) school shooting. 2 people are in critical condition including a 10 year old girl. People may not be paying attention to you right now.

#UGCcreators
Your 1st videos are gonna suck.😂 I looked back at the first ones I made for my portfolio😬 I made aesthetic type content and the one that was direct response driven was meh. If I started again I would have taken gifted campaigns more to practice.
Reminder: READ CONTRACTS👇🏽
A brand told me it would be $1200 for 3 videos a week on TikTok. That’s $100/video. The contract stated that any additional videos they request would be paid out at $20 PER VIDEO. When I asked about it they said it was fixed. I politely declined🙂

exactly how I did that! Would you want to read about my negotiation strategies?
@social_savannah
Cause they have money😂 Meaning they’re more settled life and finances (usually). They also know what they want. Working with clients that age range in cosmetics was the easiest age group for sales!
This ad is converting for this brand and I’m so excited! They came to me for 1 video & I mentioned A/B testing so I did 2 for them. I focused the barrier of cost of ebooks & added an example that was smut bc that’s huge on booktok. We’re in the works for more variations🫶🏽
Testing the same concept in different ways is important!👇🏽
I posted a Pregnancy Must Haves w/green screen/trending audio: 123 views
SAME must haves, me talking with green screen: 5K, ⬆️ saves
SAME must haves in a Carousel: 10K, ⬆️ saves.
Same content, different ways. Try it😉
Quick CTA tip 🛒
Use the word “checkout” like “Check them out at…” or “Check out [BRAND]”. It’s subliminal messaging/NLP to buy because where do you go to make a purchase—the checkout😉
Happy Monday! I wanted to reintroduce myself in the

So I saw an agency almost verbatim use this person’s post so I tagged them and commented to warn him. My thanks—He blocked me. So is HE the one ALSO posting as a “new” agency with the same post but saying $400 instead of $200 a post??🤔

I don’t often get excited by big names following me. I think working at events and Neiman Marcus and interacting with celebrities took away that excitement lol.
BUT, today function of beauty followed me! I’ve been creating content and tagging brands and my strategy is working.
How I Make Creatives That Are on TikTok Top Ads🌟🧵
1. Customer language. I read reviews and comments during the research process and use that same language in my videos. For this I looked at TikTok comments for the issues moms were having with baby formula.
Thinking of going back to Canva👀 It’s about what’s ON the site that matters and I know exactly what brands are looking at bc 1) they tell me lol and 2) it’s what I look at when hiring creators. Plus Canva is $12/month over Squarespace😂
Last Sunday , a family member went to the ER for a bad headache and high fever. He was on life support in 3 days. Gone in a week. He had an aggressive cancer. Hit him hard and fast. Reminder that I am irreplaceable to my family. Tomorrow is never promised. Grateful for everyday.

Kids brands need creative strategists who are moms to write scripts. I’ve had to change so many words on a script for a kids brand bc it’s not how moms speak. There are terms we use, things we say, that non-parents wouldn’t know. That’s the reason why my scripts convert.

It took me about 2.5 hours to pitch 3 brands because I did in-depth market analysis on each one, researched to see if they’re running ads, looked at their competitors, found the decision maker and their email, then crafted a pitch that was value driven and focused on SOLUTIONS!
When you’re a UGC creator and your recent Amazon haul is content😍 I really love editing videos like this! It’s so fun for me. I created a version without the text, just a vibey video for my socials, and this one with text highlighting the USPs. What do you think?🥰
If you’re a mom and

I want to share this encouragement:
If I get a lot done in my business, my home falls behind (time spent with kids, homeschool, cleaning, etc) and visa versa. There’s no balance. There’s just daily priorities and time management.

When I say my creatives convert, THEY CONVERT😉
Finished 4 hours of editing for 3 brands and a total of 44 videos so now I’m watching ASMR to decompress a bit before we go get a Christmas tree and I have to be around my 3 small kids😅
We had a fake tree up since October but now for the real one!🎄
If you’re a brand with no BIPOC in your content…we notice🫡👀 Same with agencies with no BIPOC creators🫡 If you’re a BIPOC creator yea the good brands are looking for diversity🫶🏽
Example of negotiations with a brand. It’s a very low offer for me. Instead of responding “This is below my rates. Contact me when you have a bigger budget” (which I have to brands in the past 🫡).I negotiated. Would y’all want to see what I said?
Try oddly satisfying & outlandish hooks🪝This was 1 of 4 hooks I created and 1 of 2 CTAs. I use strong visuals, text animation, emojis, sound effects, & transitions to keep attention😎Also my kids are not alone in frame for more than 8 secs😉

UGC Business✅
It’s a business. I have never been in a business where they call it a “journey”. Are people starting agencies saying they’re starting their “agency journey”? Even when I was in network marketing we said business😂
I get emails from brands & agencies with “If we like your work we’re hire you again for more!”
The brands and agencies that hired and re-hired me have never said this to me.
