This Side Hustle Makes Me $225/Hour at 16 (UGC)

[00:02] was able to make this money by doing a side hustle that literally anybody could is starting to sound like a scam video where they say the same dumb stuff that from scratch to see if it still works and it does and you know it works well

[00:16] because on this channel I've failed so many challenges I hardly ever succeed at a side Hustle but I actually did well at this so what is the side hustle it's ugc AKA user generated content and I've worked with Brands doing over a billion

[00:28] dollars a year including Uno yeah the card game and the side hustle checks all make a lot of money you could do it on your phone and literally anybody could videos for Brands to post on social media or use as advertisements and this

[00:42] brands are looking for specific people you can get hired for your ethnicity height or even your age like I did anything unique about you is your reach an audience like you and if you can't find a single unique thing about

[00:57] you then that's fine too because you relate to the average person and the pay companies who have a lot of money and large marketing budgets and for multiple of my previous projects I've been able to make over $100 an hour while working

[01:10] thumbnail of this video is kind of clickbait cuz I have made $225 an hour that I could sit down and do consistently every single day but making $100 an hour is honestly on the lower end of what I've seen for people who've

[01:24] first client like a lot of other side was able to get my first client within a few days and guess what that brand was it was Uno yeah somebody from Uno reached out to me with no socier proof

[01:37] doesn't prove that anyone could do the side hustle I don't know what does but on how I was able to get my first customer so quickly but before I get just a couple of days let me show you how I was able to secure A1 billion

[01:52] started by creating a new Tik Tok account about a year and a half ago and months and building up about 10,000 followers I got a random email from an ad agency in Los Angeles asking for my content creator rate they said they were

[02:04] me to create short from content for them for their tools that help high schoolers I want to say that I don't think the company wants me to say the name of who think it's fake I'm going to tell you the name of the company cuz I know if I

[02:18] just be curious it was big future which is a trademark of a brand called college board that did 1.1 billion dollars last year and this is a great example of how to your advantage because I'm a high schooler and they were willing to reach

[02:30] because I'm a high schooler but the reason they even reached out to me in creating content and that brings me to the first out of two ways of how I with ugc one way that you could totally go about this is by creating content and

[02:43] you exactly how to do this but the biggest thing is to make sure you just to do stuff like this and make money but they never start so if you could start people and make sure you stay patient because it's probably not going to

[02:55] second method I'm going to tell you that might work overnight but it took me a bit for me to get my first client now I will be honest you do have to get kind of Lucky with creating content if you're just creating content about random stuff

[03:07] chances of getting reached out to so I was creating content about Finance on out to which was kind of Lucky but it took me a few months and I had like client a lot quicker with content creation if you make content about ugc a

[03:21] great example of this is at ugc with some on Tik Tok I literally just first examples to pop up and her first video was just at the beginning of this made a video saying that she made $11,400 worth of deals in 24 hours and

[03:34] that was in March that's 3 months into the year she was able to do that so if she has three pinned videos and one of those videos is just an example of a ugc one is day one of her journey and the next one is basically just a pitch to

[03:47] showcasing her work and a Google form to fill out if you're a company wanting her in she's been able to be pretty ton of leads she's also been able to gain over 6,000 followers and this

[04:00] money than the ugc she's doing because she can now start a paid Community teaching other people how to do ugc so if you do decide to go the content longer than the second method I'm about to explain to you but you probably will

[04:12] could build up a following and sell stuff to them because she makes a ton of there's a ton of comments asking like how to start so if you want to go this her account out you can try and kind of copy what she's doing obviously not

[04:26] you could actually level it up by doing things like the paid Community I twist to it and lean into whatever makes you unique because the only reason because something about you maybe it's your gender maybe it's your height maybe

[04:39] disability you have maybe it's the way you live life I don't know just lean to try this for a proof of concept or you want money quicker then I'm going to Just 2 days and what I use to do this is Fiverr now I have had some bad

[04:53] let me show you why this is actually a really good place to do this so one night at like 12:00 a.m. I decided to make a Fiverr gig about ugc just literally took me like months to get my first DM or even client so I wasn't

[05:06] about 30 minutes to set up and surprisingly 2 days later I got a DM for them and it wasn't even like it was some random company it was actually Uno mobile like Uno the card game they have a mobile app and they wanted me to make

[05:19] video for them got paid but let me show you how I did it so some tips I have like content creation you have to start as soon as possible do not put this off up and again like I mentioned in the

[05:31] unique cuz there's going to be a ton of different people offering ugc so why to company would want to choose you is because you are the type of person that maybe it's a company promoting a basketball product and they're looking

[05:44] content for it and that's something that you could lean into you'll create basketball ugc content and the second big tip I have for you is to create a you're scrolling on Fiverr there's all those gigs and they have like thumbnails

[05:57] video showing your face then that is huge because they're probably searching just going to keep scrolling until they see somebody that looks like it like blonde tear or something like that and it shows them what they can kind of

[06:09] expect from you let me just pop up a quick example of what mine looked like million views and I'm here to help you create ugc content for your brand so you really basic but it ended up working I

[06:21] definitely not needed but I would recommend cutting out Parts where you're minutes to make a script and the next piece of advice I have for you if you're starting a ugc fber gig is to have cheaper prices because you're just

[06:33] social proof so they have no clue what to expect so you definitely can't charge like $150 just for a single video when you have no reviews and no social proof what their average prices are and go lower than them because that's the only

[06:47] you so for me for a 15-second video I did like $15 and then for a 30-second video I think I did like 25 and then like 35 for a 60sec video but I did end up getting a ton of DMs and I quoted them a lot more than my prices because I

[07:02] if they wanted me to film on an actual camera instead of a phone I charged them I charged them more if they wanted me to make my own script I charged them more the beginning if you can get one single five star review then you could up your

[07:16] definitely start upping your prices more but if you can't get any reviews or it's probably something that's wrong with your gig first thing to do is make so if you go to your gig you can see how many Impressions it has has and since

[07:30] get that many but as long as you have some Impressions like if it's like three something to be worried about and in that case then your SEO is probably pretty bad but if you're getting impressions in not orders or DMS then

[07:43] and I don't know exactly what but it could be pricing it could be because your cover video is pretty bad it could be because your offer isn't good so let competition that's doing well and look at their gig check out their description

[07:55] and passwor that they're showcasing and try to recreate with they're doing but at the most popular people in like the general ugc Niche check out their to theirs but leaning into what makes you unique and make sure to use words in

[08:09] searched for and if you could come up are searching for then that's the gold mine because if somebody just searches up ugc then there's thousands of results but if somebody searches up something

[08:21] more Niche like gardening ugc creators then there's going to be a lot less to be but also means that there's probably going to be less people right balance of where there's a decent amount of people searching for and not

[08:33] do this then I'm very confident that you could get your first client and if after clients then I would love to try and help you out but I probably won't message me on Instagram just because I don't use Instagram and I get a decent

[08:47] Discord server I'll announce that in the next couple of videos and in that I clients and if you don't want to watch through the next couple of my videos to description I left the link to a Google form form and you can just fill that out
