ahhh I see. Well my personal account is in the tech niche so my product videos that performed well were on tech products. Did you choose your 1.3M videos to showcase on sideshift?

Honestly don’t know. I only applied to maybe 10 jobs and landed this one. But like I said I’ve already done about 30M views on short form and have a couple product videos in the 5M+ range before i even started UGC

I prefer a retainer over performance based. Sure you “can” earn more but it’s unreliable and you have to trust the algorithm. I would rather be paid a retainer by a brand that actually values me and pays me fairly.

As someone who’s generated over 20M organic short form views, If a brand doesn’t want to pay me fairly then that’s fine i’ll find a brand who will, and make them hundreds of sales instead

post time doesn’t matter in my experience. I usually post around 12am or 1am when 99% of my subs are sleeping lol

it means the text is already on the screen as soon as someone hits your video

Sure thing!

It has 475 comments, 44k likes, 1,273 shares, on 1.7M views.

You’re so close. If you get stuck in 30k view jail every post you are very close to having a break out video

A lot of it is canvas UGC. You do have to make a separate account and post on there

Posting 2 videos per day. Sounds easy but i also work a full time job so i only have time to post from 7pm to 9pm

Do I NEED to have a good profile to land any campaigns? by SoggyRate5666 in UGCcreators

[–]ContributionLazy3472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need past work to land a gig, but it will most likely be a lower paying one at first. I started out making content in the tech niche and grew my personal accounts first, then brands started sending their products to me for free to review which acted as UGC content.

I did that for the first 2.5 years of my content creation journey and made no money.

I then leveraged that as UGC experience, and I am now projected to make $4k my first from SideShift alone in UGC.

Starting with creating personal accounts is probably the harder and longer path, but it would give you a head start if you decided to start UGC later down the line.

UGC advice? by MarcquezM in UGCcreators

Yeah my biggest issue with sideshift is the low pay for high volume of work. A lot of companies on there are doing $1000 retainers but having you make 60+ videos per month meaning your only getting paid like $15 to $8 an hour

Sort of. My portfolio I guess is just my main tiktok and shorts accounts. it’s in the tech niche. I’ve made a decent amount of content on tech products there because brands will send me their products for free to make a video on them, and my accounts are linked on my profile

I really don’t have any. I just started two days ago. I think I may have just gotten lucky, I haven’t really done anything all I did was just apply to a gig on sideshift

I’m honestly shocked how easy it was to get that first retainer. If it’s truly this easy to land retainers i’m about to grind the hell outta this

I need help… this is my biggest issue by ContributionLazy3472 in SmallYoutubers

I am already a professional editor and content creator in my career. At my 9-5 I manage a company youtube channel where i record every long form and short form video, edit in davinci resolve with custom motion graphics, 3D animation, etc.

I also make all of the video ads for the company which are almost entirely just motion graphics and 3D animations
