Hey everyone! 👋 In the latest post, I shared a poll asking about your biggest UGC struggles, and a lot of you had questions about several topics and I wanted to dive in and start tackling them, one question at a time! In today’s video, I’m answering an amazing question from @Lian Brouwer :💭 “How does invoicing/payments work with foreign countries as a UGC Creator? Here’s what I covered: - How to handle international payments using tools like PayPal, Wise, and Stripe. - The importance of clear contracts (you can grab my free contract template in the UGC Strategy Guide!). - How to communicate transfer fees and ensure everything runs smoothly. I’ll continue addressing your questions and struggles, so if you have something you’d like me to cover, comment on my pinned post with your questions! Let’s make this series a place where we work through challenges together. I’m so excited to hear what’s on your mind and help you grow as UGC creators! Nyomi 💕

Hi Friends!!❤️ Pitching to brands was the most voted topic in our recent poll, and I’ve seen your comments and questions, so let’s tackle this head-on! I just posted a video breaking down how to craft a pitch that brands will actually respond to—and trust me, it’s all about: ✨ Adding value ✨ Making it personal ✨ Keeping it short and sweet In this video, I also share: 💡 How to find a brand’s pain point and offer a solution. 💡 Why personalization makes or breaks your pitch. 💡 A real-life example of how a pitch I sent over a year ago just turned into a potential deal! 👉 Got more questions about pitching or UGC struggles?

I recently received an email from USA haircare company Veganic Hair asking me to make two videos for Gifted Collab which will be run as paid ads without any compensation and then if the ads will perform well then I might get a retainer and some payment. What pisses me off as a UGC creator is a brand's audacity to ask for a video to run as a paid ad without any compensation. It's disrespectful as I put in my time, and effort and pay taxes. Paid ads generate direct revenue for the brand and it’s only fair that creators are compensated for contributing to that success. I was asking super low as a test video package for 80 euros per two videos and the brand didn’t agree. I don’t believe that such a brand doesn’t have any marketing budget. I don’t think 80 euros is big money in USA. I said to the brand that I’d be happy to create one video as part of a gifted collaboration, but only for organic use on my personal social media profile, where I would tag the brand or I can send a watermarked video for review. If the brand would like to use my content for paid ads, I expect to negotiate usage rights and proper compensation. What do you think about it? Would you accept to make two paid ad videos for a brand without any compensation? Have you had a similar experience?

Hey, UGC creators! I would love it if you could share your thoughts on my latest UGC video. I tried a new editing style and a new phone Samsung S23. I made a UGC video for Loop Earplugs and how it benefits my daily life as a business owner.
