i want to share something about one of our students because i think it needs to be said out loud in this community... a few months ago @Stacy Parks was a stay at home mom of three in northern arizona, homeschooling her kids, supporting her husband, and quietly carrying the weight of feeling like she needed to do something more. she had spent a full year in digital marketing through network marketing and made absolutely nothing. and when you pour that much of yourself into something and see zero return it does something to your belief system. it makes you start to wonder if maybe you are just not cut out for this kind of thing.... she almost let that stop her. but she stayed open. and that is the only reason i am writing this post right now. she found UGC. she found this community. and she just did it. she started in april's UGC Games with no expectations. just a willingness to figure it out one week at a time around her kids, around her family schedule, around everything she was already carrying. and in June she made just under $5,000 from one brand!!! her husband watched the earnings go up on the platform every single day. he would look at the screen and just say... wow. because they both knew what it took to get here and they both knew what it meant for their family! the UGC games were a massive part of this. going through that challenge pushed her to show up in a way she would not have pushed herself to do alone. the competition, the accountability, the community energy. it cracked something open in her and she came out the other side knowing she could actually do this for real, which is EXACTLY why we host it. she joined the UGC games, put her absolute all in, and won. and she deserved every bit of that recognition. so if you are a mom sitting here right now wondering if this is for you. if you have tried other things and failed and you are starting to believe the story that you are just not the type of person who gets to win at something like this...

Just curious. I have a few jobs now done that I can add to my portfolio but wondering if I should still have a couple sample videos as well? There’s still different types of content I can do that these videos don’t show.

Vertus is a revolutionary AI model that is actually build like our brains work, it is developing the capability to reason. To bring this to the general public, a team of UGC creators (including me) will be creating organic content. I highly resonate with Vertus since I have been taking a course in Cognitive psychology where we learn how reasoning/cognition works (or as much as science can explain). AI has been annoying me a little bit because it is not meeting the standard everybody preaches about. I think Vertus will be different. here's my insta post about this: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DYnJnkDCRe-/?igsh=Y3d5a2pwaW1iNGl6 @rosebalzerugc Let's make this big guys @Gloria Stonelake @Alexander K

HAPPY APRIL UGC WORLD 🎉 I've been working on something for the last few weeks and I'm finally ready to share it. We start THE UGC GAMES on April 13, 14, 15, and 16. (EVENT OVER) Four days. Completely free. 📍 Live with me on Zoom. And real brands sponsoring the whole thing, paying out creators live brand deals on Day 4. Here's what four days inside the games look like. DAY 1: I will teach you how to recreate "2026 trending content" There's a new type of content trending in 2026 that's making creators a ridiculous amount of money. It's the same style that helped @Missy Wallker put $11,000 in her bank account just last month. She got paid over $3,000 for ONE 60 second video. Missy was the top performer for C9, one of the brands sponsoring the games. She just quit her job from UGC to work from home and spend more time with her kids. DAY 2: Your personal "MY STORY" video Guide If you don't have any past UGC case studies yet, the best case study is YOU. If you can't tell your own story on camera, what makes you think a brand will trust you? This is where we build your "My Story" video. The one asset that makes brands choose you over every other creator in their inbox. When your story is on camera in a way that converts, brands stop being something you chase and start being something that finds you. When I first told my story in a reel, it attracted brands like C9. I was honest about dealing with anxiety, and to this day they're my number one brand partnership. DAY 3: The storytelling structure that makes brands come back We're in a day and age where if you can't storytell and get your viewers obsessed with knowing what comes next, you're not a content creator. You're a commodity. Storytelling is the number one skill that gives you leverage over brands because it has their audience obsessed WITH you and wanting more. It's why I'm bringing in Coach Mannie @Emmanuel Williams to teach the secrets that made him ranked in the top 10 male UGC creators worldwide.
