crazy to see this list compared to my post from Jan 1. my bootstrapped startup has risen the ranks :)
the great q4 lock in 🧑💻 headed to a cafe this morning to start working on rebranding & pivoting my app
so if any tech UGC programs need creators rn, post your campaign on ugctank.com (last chance)
you’ll get 50 applicants from my vetted roster of 1,400 creators

Episode 3: When you have no idea what you're doing with UGC Creators, this is what happens...
I hired a UGC creator, which was surprisingly cheap. $30 per video. But they wanted bonuses.
I don't want to give bonuses though. I made $0 on my app so far.
She went on the make a few videos on Instagram and a few of them for 2000 views. I still got 0 sales though.
I probably need to pivot my app.
This is a dream comment for any creator building their own product
I started building a new UGC platform in public ~10 months ago
I haven’t ran any ads to grow it, and the only marketing I’ve done is talking about it on my own socials
@ugctank has been seeing a lot of growth from word of mouth & LLMs recommending it, and as a result, I get cool comments like these :)
I quit my software engineering job at Disney
I worked there for 20 months and decided to leave to build my own app
I've been working on ugctank.com for ~10 months now, and between the platform itself and my agency within it, it's consistently surpassed my Disney paychecks. Figured it was time to go all in :)
Excited to continue building & be self-employed again!
