Most people think you need 100K followers to make money from content. You don't.

UGC (User Generated Content) is one of the fastest ways to start earning because brands don't care about your follower count — they care about the content you can create for THEM.

Here's the exact process:

1. Pick a niche you actually use — skincare, tech, food, fitness. Whatever you already buy and know about.

2. Create 3-5 sample videos — 15-30 second product demos in good lighting. Use your phone. That's your portfolio.

3. DM brands directly — Find small-to-mid brands on Instagram (10K-100K followers). Send them a short pitch with your samples. Offer your first one free or cheap to build the relationship.

4. Price up from there — Once you have 2-3 paid deals, raise your rates. $150-500 per video is standard for beginners.

The key most people miss: brands need content constantly. One good relationship can turn into recurring monthly income.
