Sept. UGC Wins? Share! I’ll go first…
Share something from this week or month that was a huge win for you in your UGC business! Even if you just made a small step towards getting started—post it below! Remember, engaging boosts your level into unlocking more resources in this group! My win of the month: >>Booking my first high ticket retainer doing social media management and content creation as a partial face of the brand for a Moroccan beauty brand. I met the client on UpWork where my profile is top rated for UGC. I had a profile for product photography as well. She bought a package needing Amazon product photography, a UGC ad bundle, and social media photos. That relationship turned into her hiring me to be her full time social media manager, but with a more complex role— creating content with my face and likeness to fill her feed, which you can charge more for. It’s not just being a SMM, it’s being a Social Brand Manager & Primary UGC creator. This gig allows me to stop chasing lots of tiny UGC deals. Now I focus on UGC deals that are “worth my time” (about $250+ per collaboration). I know it’s not for everyone, but I happen to love to create content and make things look aesthetic so curating social platforms for a brand that I’m interested in is a huge win for me. It allows me to use my passions in photography, videography, graphic design, and UGC all combined. I recommend anyone who has an interest in being a social media manager to build relationships with their UGC clients especially the ones that aren’t using an agency to hire their UGC creators. I’ve met a lot of these kinds of brand owners on UpWork. I’ve been collecting Moroccan decor so I can bring in local friends to model and help create UGC. I posted on FB to find local people wanting to model / create content. I got so many responses. I’ll be working on growing this brand, increasing their sales, and hopefully building out a full UGC team that will eventually pay standard UGC rates! Can’t wait to hear your wins!
