@james_xond I would purchase my parents house for them.

If you woke up a billionaire tomorrow, what would you do first? Be honest, please.

Just had a "brand" try and tell me I needed to purchase two "gift cards" ($200 in value) to use as a "giveaway" on a video and they'd reimburse me + my fee... Should've known it was a scam when a big brand used a gmail address and their "example" was an AI video. 🤦‍♂️

@BrandonK_ugc The last videos I did were for a "retro" gaming console. It was kind of fun! My biggest struggle now is just finding brands that want to work with UGC creators. I feel like I am way overthinking it, and its causing me to do nothing.

Types of clients I've worked with in the last 30 days: Air purifer Grill cleaner AI program Coding program Pet products Male creators, what tends to be products or niches you work in?

@MLukashewich This may be a super ignorant question, but what is your favorite places to find brands to pitch? I sit and try to find brands to reach out to, and then I get overwhelmed by not knowing which direction to go in and give up. Insense USED to work for me, but it doesn't anymore.

Let's address some common UGC mistakes to avoid Most creators think their biggest problem is filming or editing. It’s not. It’s actually the business side. Here are the mistakes I see every day as a creator sourcer for over 500+ brands: 1️⃣ Charging usage rights on UGC I know this one is controversial, but UGC is meant to be work-for-hire. When you add usage fees, renewals, timelines, and extra logistics, most brands just pass. They don’t want to manage all that. Keep it simple. Bundle everything together and make it easy to say yes. 2️⃣ Pricing yourself out of the market Charging $1,000+ for ONE video (most of the time) is not realistic for the average brand. Brands don’t want to spend 3x their ad budget just to test a creator. If the ad doesn’t perform, they’re out $1k+ before they even run ads. Stay competitive and realistic. 3️⃣ Playing the rate game Saying your rate is $1,000… then immediately dropping to $400 when a brand pushes back? From the brand side, that feels weird. If your rate is truly $1,000, stick to it. If you’re not getting deals, adjust your pricing and find a sweet spot. For me personally, my sweet spot is $400–$500 per video with 3 hooks. For repeat brands who’ve seen performance, closer to $500. Right now I offer a simple package: 3 videos for $1,000 (all raws, edits, and b-roll included). Brands LOVE it because it’s a no-brainer. I’ve signed 10 deals with that package since the start of the year. 4️⃣ Writing scripts with zero research Too many creators write what they THINK brands want to hear like "this product is super high quality, amazing product, must-have!!!" Instead of what the audience actually cares about. SO, before you type one word, read reviews, watch ads, understand what the customer really wants (this is how you get into becoming a creative strategist!!) 5️⃣ Ignoring the basics of filming Bad lighting, messy/distracting backgrounds, low energy, no personality. Natural sunlight + strong camera presence will beat fancy gear EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. LOL I would rather have a not so great script but AMAZING camera presence. Just a couple of mistakes to avoid.

@sincerelydawnUG @destinyyoungugc I really tried Fiverr and didn't have any success at all. I even paid to have an "expert" give feedback on two gigs. lol, I hear so many people love Fiverr, but I just cant seem to make it work for me!

@Mishi_2210 95 remove the bottom left of 6 and put on top of 4.

What is the number..? Only 1% will succeed

@RealKhalilU Dying? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wyd in this situation? 👀

@AVGirl4Life A 40% tip? I'm sorry, the most you're getting from me is 25% - and that is IF the service was excellent. You get 18% for just being there.

Don’t Lie Yes or No

My desktop has a folder called "Final Version" with 23 files in it, and somehow none of them are the final version.

Some days I'm a creative genius. Other days I'm googling "hex code for that blue that's not too blue but also not gray."
