In this episode of the UGC 101 podcast, I chat with Claire Bacardi, a successful UGC creator who went from social work to content creation. Claire shares how she started her UGC business to help pay for her wedding, the hurdles she faced, and how she made a name for herself on Fiverr. We dive into why being real is key in content creation, the shift from corporate jobs to doing your own thing, and what the future holds for UGC in a crowded market. Claire talks about why creators need to be bold and flexible, pointing out that every brand needs user-generated content. We also tackle the journey of becoming a UGC creator, busting some common fears and myths about the industry. We stress the importance of just starting, even if you're scared, and how UGC is changing, along with the need for personal branding. Claire introduces her coaching program, the Pink Collar Club, which helps aspiring UGC creators with community, training, and resources. Plus, we share tips on using platforms like Fiverr and why setting clear goals in the UGC world is crucial.
