I wanna share a milestone. Yes a small milestone but it boost my confidence. I had a reaction from a brand, they are interested in my sample video. I’m the luckiest man in the world! Even without a deal. It shows that being dedicated to reach out, works!

just wanna share a win to inspire everyone and showcase what’s possible in the creator economy. This last week, I’ve been talking with a brand back and forth and received a 6 figure/year inbound opportunity to be a spokeswoman of a brand with 22million + followers. They want to expand their current demographic to a female audience and want me to lead it by being the female “face” of the brand. Their director of marketing had actually found me on a Cloud9 ad lol, and then ended up seeing my instagram motivational content after, and was impressed with my content, which lead to the brand call we had this last week. To be honest, I still haven’t accepted the gig yet. They want to fly me back to the USA and record there, which means I’ll have to put an end to my traveling ventures, so I’m weighting the options right now. Two things I want to highlight with this win: 1) the opportunities in the creator economy are absolutely endless. There is literally no ceiling to this. 2) Consistently promote yourself. I’m always thinking about putting myself out there, in the most unapologetic manner. This character trait is what all the top performers have developed in the game, the skill set to just over promote yourself. It compounds BIG TIME. “If you spend your time chasing butterflies they will fly away, however if you spend your time building a beautiful garden the butterflies will come to you, and if they do not, at least you have a garden to be happy with” Share your story, you all have one. Don’t be afraid to over promote yourselves, and build your garden, day in and day out. You will never regret it.

Hi everyone, I'm Mukti, live in Bali. I'm new here. Thank for accepting me in this amazing community. 🤘

Hi I’m Efia and thanks for accepting me into the community Gloria 😊

My goal when I started this UGC journey was to quit my retail job after Christmas. Never did I actually think that would be possible so quickly. For context, I’m a mother based in Georgia and I started UGC in late November of 2025. In December, I made $600 and I went through a steep learning curve with UGC as I made all the rookie mistakes. It wasn’t life changing money but it was proof of concept that this could lead to something January 2026, I told myself I was going to quit my part time retail job and go all into UGC. And just in the first 2 weeks of January, I contracted $3k in UGC gigs!! And then just this past week, I landed a $2.5k monthly retainer as a UGC Strategist!!! My goal is to do consistent $5k months and then eventually it would be a dream to hit $10k/m. Just yesterday I turned in my two weeks notice from my retail job. Let this be proof that you can do hard things. You can create the life you’ve been praying for. You can make yourself the main character of your own life again. Be vulnerable, tell your story, stay honest. You never know what connections you can make simply for being who you are. It has been an emotional roller coaster to say the least, but I couldn’t be more proud of myself and grateful to have the support of this community!
