Paid UGC<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 Content created by <strong>UGC content creators<\/strong> who are paid by brands to produce content while maintaining the authentic style of an everyday user.

For brands looking to start working with UGC, here are the steps we recommend:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Working_With_UGC_Creators\"><\/span><strong>Working With UGC Creators<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What you personally love isn&#8217;t always what converts \u2014 and vice versa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Identify the right creators<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 Look for creators who match your target audience. Test several to find out what resonates with your brand.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Create a clear brief<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 Choose the right product that will work in advertising, put together a solid technical brief (where subtitles should be placed, etc.), and provide product information so the UGC creator doesn&#8217;t get things wrong on camera. Never dictate a script \u2014 that kills authenticity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Prepare a contract<\/strong> with the UGC creator \u2013 while an email exchange can technically count as an agreement, it&#8217;s far better to have a proper legal document that you can reuse.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;d rather not deal with the admin side, reach out to a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lkmedia.cz\/tvorba-reels-pro-kampane-a-ugc-videa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">specialist agency that handles it all for you<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_UGC_Across_Marketing_Channels\"><\/span><strong>Using UGC Across Marketing Channels<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your UGC content shouldn&#8217;t be limited to social media alone. <strong>You can effectively integrate it across various marketing channels:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>E-commerce product pages<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 UGC videos, photos, and reviews boost conversions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Email campaigns<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 UGC content can significantly improve email marketing performance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ad campaigns<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 Authentic UGC often outperforms polished professional ads<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Websites<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 A section dedicated to happy customers builds trust<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Much_Does_UGC_Content_Cost_for_Brands\"><\/span>How Much Does UGC Content Cost for Brands?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It depends on whether you decide to manage UGC content in-house or hand it over to professionals. Going the DIY route without an agency can save you a fair bit of money, but it all comes down to how well you understand UGC \u2014 because it can just as easily turn into a disaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reality is more nuanced \u2014 some creators do produce beautiful content on their own, but even though it looks great to the brand, it falls completely flat in ads or on social media. That&#8217;s why it helps to have someone with experience calling the shots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating the content itself is really just the tip of the iceberg. <strong>A huge chunk of the work lies in professional communication with creators, legal coverage of partnerships, admin, and strategic management of the entire ecosystem.<\/strong> And frankly, it&#8217;s exhausting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To effectively manage UGC campaigns, you need expertise in briefing creators, analysing ad format performance, technical specifications, and the legal side of licensing rights. <strong>Equally important is the ability to provide constructive feedback that leads to optimal results.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating a comprehensive creative and technical manual for creators is another time investment you shouldn&#8217;t underestimate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you weigh all these factors, working with a full-service agency often turns out to be the more efficient option in terms of value for money. <strong>If you still prefer the in-house route, we recommend thoroughly studying our e-book.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/form.simpleshop.cz\/4z5An\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1.jpg\" alt=\"E-book: how to create UGC videos\" class=\"wp-image-94357\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1-700x368.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1-696x365.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also worth noting that UGC ad videos follow different rules than viral Reels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Working directly with creators<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 you only pay for the content itself (roughly \u20ac20\u2013\u20ac80 per video).

It&#8217;s also important to have realistic expectations \u2014 with this approach, only a fraction of the videos typically perform well, often as little as 5% of the total.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Working with a full-service agency<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 a comprehensive solution for around \u20ac200\u2013\u20ac260 per video that includes access to a vetted network of quality creators, professional legal coverage, complete communication management, and most importantly, a guarantee that the content meets all requirements for effective advertising.
