The lighting in my apartment is killing my UGC goals 😅

[@mpettit10]

I tried using the hubspot signature in my gmail but it wouldnt work. First it was "too long" so I had to use 'copy signature code' insert through inspect element and html edit the code it would generate in the bod but when I would save the signature in gmail it would disappear from existence.

[@OfficialRJCervantes]

I have a question, Millie. If I want to make content on TikTok, is it best to have a business account?

[@Motivationstation82]

I want to find out how to find the ugc creators to make content for my brand. Can anyone help?

[@shannikortega2359]

I am sooo happy you did this so many creators don’t want to actually say the $$ amount you “ can” charge! Your the best! You deserve all the views and all the loyal subscribers your so real

[@MillieAdrian]

Yes Shannik! You're so sweet. Thank you!

[@PabloEscobar-gp4zw]

I can't agree less

[@kimseyla7885]

Good sharing❤❤

[@iamMariahJanae]

The QUEEN of no gatekeeping and putting us on. Thank you! Let me follow you and subscribe on everything.

[@W.Aurora]

Such an in-depth guide! 💯 Been diving into UGC recently, and it's amazing how genuine the content feels. Using boost app social for captions and hashtags, and honestly, the AI writing tools are game-changing for fresh ideas... massive time-saver.

[@angelinnaross]

Oh, I've been using that! Definitely helped me make my content pop a bit more. Loving their features!

[@2Musicscout2]

You have just literally unlocked the next level TO MY INCOME!!! YOU HAVE NO IDEA I have been searching for a new job for months and also been putting together a new coaching offer but that’s not ready to be launched yet so I’ve just started creating content again and looking for more ways to make more money so I can leave my 9-5 ASAP. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!!!❤❤❤

[@Pandaeyedninja]

How is it going so far?

[@ByCrystalWilliams]

As a UGC Coach a UGC Creative Director who hires UGC Creators and a UGC Creator I would NOT recommend inching down I make 20K+ with UGC because I do not niche down… niching will cause you to miss out on money!

[@OmavangieRax]

Thanks a bunch for the tips. I have had 3 UGC deals, 2 brands have approached me and 1 I approached the brand. I learned a lot from your video.

[@ilovetumblr99]

[@ncgx7]

[@Ugcbydianas]

Really great breakdown of UGC . It’s not as easy as people might think. I think the challenging part is figuring out rates and a contract

[@gabrielagalhano]

Girrrrrrrls I just got here, omg you’re the best ever I’ve been seeing so many videos today, and you literally the only that speak clearly about the charge topic and the platforms, thanksss ❤

[@QueenUrii]

[@jahzr]

Thank you for this! I’m starting to get some experience with UGC platforms and look to get more serious about it. This helps so much!!

[@avapalomaofficial]

I've listened to this 3xs. Last night I finally sat down with pen and paper and took notes. The amount of information you share is wonderful and extremely helpful. I love listening when I'm out and about but I realize I need to go back through your videos at my desktop so I can take notes! Great work as always!

[@savoryexposure]

Thanks, as always, for putting this in easy to digest form, no filler and plenty of links and straight answers on compensation. Appreciate you!! This is exactly the video I've been waiting for. I've been approved as an Amazon influencer since last year and have been hesitant about getting started with UGC video

[@chrisv5386]

[@joeljustinjr5548]

This video answered every question I had regarding UGC content creation, so thank you for this 🙏

[@SandraLargaes]

Millie, thank you so much for creating such high value videos! I just started my KZbin last week with just my iPhone 13 Pro. I watched your step by steps 12 month video and it inspired me to focus on the now. I’m currently exploring and experimenting different modes of digital marketing and will definitely give UGC research a try. I’m keeping my heart open to everything which is the best part of starting out and being a beginner. Thank you!

[@mareka811]

[@Gwyneththomas]

Love this video! Thanks Millie!!

[@theseasonofmigration-lk7gu]

Most informative video I've seen in a while! This is the type of content that usually you pay 1000$ to get access to...

[@MalahatAhmad]

Love the way you explained everything 💕..huge love for you...

[@VibeGator01]

Idk, which is more beautiful. The well put together video or Millie, but thanks a lot queen❤

[@Juscallmenicki]

This was so good Millie! Thank you so much

[@amandacoords]

Just the video I needed🥰

[@talkinnmedia4535]

Thank you so much for this video. I appreciate you.

[@CherylBinstock]

OMG! So interesting! An Influencer focus seemed too intense for what I’d want to do… but UGC sounds far more scalable. I’d rather supplement my income than go full time. And obviously remote working is key! As a retiree I guess I could focus on the geriatrics industry but I’m thinking I can also look at my interests and see what opportunities might align. Thanks for the ever amazing tips you offer, truly appreciate you! 💕🇨🇦💕

[@vanessa9151]

The style of the video is on point with the text and shifts❤❤

[@coral.guadalupe]

[@danielguzmanfitness3118]

New to UGC. When working with companies/marketing agencies, what are the standard terms and conditions that UGC creators should abide by to protect themselves with? What are standard practices?

[@tanazizhar3914]

You really helped alot

[@MarinaBeker]

Thank you so much!

[@hungriimedia6950]

This is amazing 👏

[@donovandesigns]

Thanks for sharing! Incredibly helpful as I lead a content creation agency. Very useful!

[@MillieAdrian]

You're very welcome!

[@CreativelyJuliet]

This was so so helpful! Thank you so much! I have one question, though. Should UGC creators still have a dedicated instagram and/or tik tok for their UGC content? I know the brands post and not the creator, but I feel like a lot of accounts I follow on instagram are UGC/content creator focused and I'm just wondering if that is something that's beneifical or needed!

[@sparklemommtravels]

I'm so proud of you.
