Mike Dancy | Male UGC Creator

Well that snuck up quickly. 26 million views on my main #YouTube channel

@leeann_foxugc <—- that’s this guy

If you’re a 50+ creator redefining the rules, I want to follow you. Let’s connect. #UGCcreators #ugc #genx #midlifecreators

@MariyahGenX_UGC My Dr tried to give me a flu shot once and the needle bent. I had to remind her that I make videos on the Internet and have very thick skin

Made a huge mistake today.🥴I have a UGC video doing really well on Meta right now & I decided to read thru the IG comments. Man, ppl are vicious. All kinds of comments about my hair/ face/outfit... I wasn't even talking about beauty/ fashion. I was talking about perimenopause!

I’m selling a domain name for UGC creators. It’s UGCMOM dot com asking $99 USD. Great for portfolios. #UGC #UGCcreators #domains

@UGCMarsha Thanks :) I had a few tutorials that went viral. Same on tiktok.

@Canadian_UGC This is amazing

Well that snuck up quickly. 26 million views on my main #YouTube channel

@ColleenUGC1 You in a facebook group? Theres a few AIP podcasts I listen to as well. I use Oink and VV as well. Volume is part of it, planning is another

@Canadian_UGC Yes I definitely try to review my UGC items. I have a YouTube but it’s pretty pitiful 😅 I do a lot of CC and use Viral Vue. I have about 1250 videos and need to hustle. I want to get it to $3-4k consistently. 😆

Be honest—how long did it take you to land your FIRST paid UGC deal? #ugc #ugccreator #ugccommunity

@ColleenUGC1 That’s a great AIP number. You do mainly Creator Connections? It’s a circular model for me. Products from UGC become YouTube reviews and AIP reviews. Or YouTube products become AIP etc

@Canadian_UGC I’m in AIP too but it’s definitely not my main bag 😅 I only did about $2200 last month. Would LOVE to make it higher! 😆

@frasercreator I don’t really have a rate card. I price more by the brief and number of shots, lines and product value. I wait for the brand to propose a offer and work from it.

What does your UGC rate card look like right now? I'll go first: – Single video (raw): $250 – Single video (edited): $350 – Package of 3 (edited): $900 – Monthly retainer: $1,200+ Drop yours below 👇 Help a brother out (and pick up some inspo while you're at it)

@MikeV_UGC My wife was interested. I said if she wants to do it, I’ll help but it’s her gig.

@Canadian_UGC Well that makes no sense. I was coming in to tell you take the deal, but now I get it! Haha, only because I did a bamboo sheets collab and it changed my life! Hahah

Just got the anticipated, “we’d love to gift you a bedroom lifestyle sheet set in exchange for 5 photos of each..” etc. they priced it at $500. For sheets…. I don’t think so

@ColleenUGC1 Yes, but it’s not my first priority. I prefer the Amazon Influencer program and YouTube to drive my main income. UGC is the bonus bag :)

@Canadian_UGC Wow! So you’ve been at it for quite a while!

@creativelylaila I’m 90% inbound at this point. YouTube has 43k subs and is a funnel for leads. Anyone that says they are slow right now needs to push their own personal branding

I hate to say it, but they were right about personal branding. As soon as I started being intentional and going at it with a solid strategy in place, the inbounds have been trickling in steadily. It was almost immediate. I’m not saying it works that fast all the time, but it works.

@joeparugc I try to do THC but they can’t ship it in the mail due to restrictions… makes me so mad

I don’t do alcohol brands I don’t do THC I don’t do spicy content I don’t do anything I wouldn’t want my family to see. Most people think having boundaries as a creator limits you. It’s actually the opposite. It opens up more space for the right opportunities.

@elev8or_creator That’s deadass broke mofo money. How much is your cut?

Travel brand hiring UGC creators in the USA & Canada 🌍 Looking for 9:16 travel content with B-roll. Long-term potential. Pays $50–$75 per video. Apply link attached in the comments👇 Follow & Comment "Elev8or" to get more such opportunities. #UGC #TravelCreators #UGCjobs #ContentCreators #PaidUGC

@blackbriz Same. I’m never slow. But I also pick and choose my gigs more carefully then I used too.

Not slow in our end. We are constantly hiring UGC creators - our competitor has 400 videos on TikTok and IG racking in $10K daily. We only have 12 😭 We are looking to hire 30 creators to produce 10-15 videos in a month. Base pay per video + commissions. DM me “Brief”

@ucefugc People that only focus on UGC may find it slow but it’s really a tide. Some days the tide is out and some days it’s all inbound. When UGC is slow, it can be busy for YouTube reviews . Never put all your eggs in one basket

I've talked to 5+ creators all saying its SLOW right now It's not just you I promise, everyone is feeling it Use this time to reach out to old clients, learn new things, update offers/portfolio and relax😌

My advice to UGC creators #ugc #UGCcreators

@MikeV_UGC It’s like those people selling “learn UGC” courses on tiktok. They go live for 3-7 hours. They aren’t making UGC content if they are wasting hours on that platform

@Canadian_UGC 😂😂😂 this made me laugh. Funny cus it’s true…

If you’re on Twitter all day then you aren’t a busy creator. Who has time for this?

There is a difference between being in UGC and being an influencer. A UGC creator works well with scripts. Influencers work well without one as they know what the audience wants. I wish that brands understood that difference.
