Interested in becoming a content creator but too shy to be the centre of attention? Try becoming a user-generated creator (UGC).
Let’s first unpack the definition of UGC and how it can grow your social media platforms. User-generated creators create content for user-generated purposes from making vlogs, pictures or posts where it is evident what message they want to send.
A good way of explaining these content creators is defining them as very niche-based creators. They focus solely on that niche so, if they are beauty UGC creators they would do makeup routines using that brand products and tag that brand. This way of creating content allows these big brands to collaborate with you where they pay you to create content for them.
