Brief to Paid — Day 1 of 3 Today was step one of our loop: SEE THE BRIEF → MAKE THE CONTENT → PITCH THE BRAND Here's what we covered: The six questions underneath every brief — audience, problem/desire, campaign goal, likely KPI, required message, and creative freedom. We walked through this live using The Farmer's Dog's Crunchy Biscuits brief. Reading between the lines — deliverables that aren't stated, pay that's listed two different ways, deadlines that look closed but aren't. A brief tells you what a brand needs; your job is figuring out how to make someone care. What 80% of creators would make — and why we're not doing that. Generic product close-ups and "POV: you finally found…" openers are the default. We're building angles that stand out instead. 3 angles, each built on a KPI — not just "creative ideas," but angles engineered around one specific metric: watch-time, conversion, saves, engagement, or reach. Your homework (due before Day 2) 1. Review your 3 angles from today's chat. 2. Look at the brand's content style in the Meta Ad Library. (https://www.facebook.com/adlibrary) 3. Pick the one angle you feel is strongest to match to the brand! 4. Write the framework (use the Mini Strategy Template from today). 5. Comment your final locked-in strategy below this post. ⚠️ Homework is required for Day 2 access. If your strategy isn't in the comments before our next call, you won't be let into Day 2. This isn't just a formality. Day 2 is built entirely on the angle you lock in today, so there's nothing for you to work from if this step gets skipped. Drop your final strategy below 👇 See you tomorrow.

My husband is now interested in creating content for hunting/fishing brands 🤣 He's been sucked in!

Here’s the truth: most “brand new” creators stay stuck because they’re consuming content about UGC instead of actually doing UGC. Not this weekend. I’m running a live 3-day workshop where you show up for 30 minutes a day and leave with something DONE not another course sitting half-finished in your library. 📅 Sat, Sept 12 — Niche + Gear You’re picking your niche and setting up your phone to film like a pro. Live. In class. Done by the end of the session. 📅 Sun, Sept 13 — Film + Portfolio You’re filming your first sample clip and getting a real portfolio page live. Not “someday.” Sunday. 📅 Mon, Sept 14 — Pitch + Book It This is the one that matters most. You’re searching for UGC jobs in YOUR city, wherever you are, whatever country, and sending pitches live, timed to land Monday morning when brands are actually checking their inbox. No more guessing where the jobs are. No more “is this only a US thing.” If there are brands hiring creators near you, we’re finding them and you’re pitching them… together, live, that day. Show up. Do the work. Walk away with a niche, a clip, a portfolio, and pitches already sent. 💃 Drop a comment if you’re in, more details + exact time coming soon. Affiliates: this workshop is a great one to push in your marketing since it’s a tangible, fast win for anyone on the fence about joining. Use it.

I haven’t disappeared, I promise. Since Wednesday night, I’ve been in and out of the ER with my baby, and honestly, everything else has had to take a backseat. If you have kids, you know there’s no version of “business as usual” when your little one isn’t okay. I’m surfacing for air and I’ve got 300+ messages waiting across every platform. I’m going through them as fast as I can, but I wanted to be honest with you instead of just going silent. Here’s how I’m prioritizing, so you know where you stand: 📁 Purchased a portfolio and still haven’t gotten your files? Comment “PORTFOLIO” below, you are first in line, no question. I just learned Google no longer allows these to be sent as email attachments, so everything now goes out as a Google Drive link instead. I’m so sorry for the wait, truly. I’m getting these to you as fast as I possibly can. ❓ Questions about group updates not in the pinned post? I promise I haven’t forgotten you, just give me a little time to get there. 📅 Need a 1:1 from the private mentoring package? Comment “PRIVATE” and I’ll send you a link to grab time on my calendar this month and get you caught up. Thank you for being so patient and understanding with me. This community means a lot to me, and I didn’t want to leave you wondering what was going on. I’ll be back to full speed soon. 🙏💛
