Built by a Creator Who Has Done It


This program is built on the exact systems Gianna uses across 1000+ Brand Deals — the real client-work playbook, not theory.

90-Day Roadmap to Beyond One-Off Deals as a UGC Creator


Follow a clear, three-month plan to grow from a few deals to a more repeatable UGC business structure. Each month focuses on specific actions - from polishing your portfolio and landing repeat clients to raising rates and building long-term brand partnerships.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from other UGC courses?

The Pro Accelerator takes you from your first brand application all the way to building a professional UGC client pipeline — with advanced production systems, pricing frameworks, and scaling strategies designed for creators ready to operate like a professional UGC business.

Do I need any experience to start?

No. If you already have some UGC experience and want to skip the basics, the Pro Accelerator opens with a 7-module Foundation Track built for creators who are brand new, then moves into the 10 Professional Track modules for scaling. If you already have experience you can start straight in the Professional Track.

What if it is not the right fit?

Pro Accelerator is covered by the 90-Day Conditional Refund — eligible only if you have completed all 10 Pro modules, sent 30 documented brand pitches, built your portfolio using the course templates, and submitted your proof between day 60 and day 90. Once we verify your proof we refund 100% to your original payment method within 5 business days. There is no call and no reassessment. See full terms at /refund-policy.

Is there a payment plan?

Yes. You can pay $497 one-time or choose 3 monthly payments of $197/mo. Both options give you lifetime access to the full program.

Lost Without a Clear Plan or Strategy


I'm getting deals, but they're inconsistent. My Instagram and TikTok felt random, my portfolio wasn’t professional, and I had no idea how to pitch brands or what to charge.

No structure. No strategy. No results. 

  • I don't have a repeatable outreach system and risk rejection

  • Spending hours filming but making $0

Thriving as a Paid UGC Creator


With a clear step-by-step system, I built a polished portfolio, started pitching with confidence, and landed real brand deals.

Paid UGC Creator

  • Confidently pitching brands with a professional portfolio

  • Pricing pitches using Gianna’s rate framework — built from deliverables, usage, exclusivity and turnaround

  • Following a consistent outreach, follow-up and client-delivery process

Individual results vary substantially. The income figures, brand-deal counts, and time-to-result examples shown reflect Gianna's personal experience as a 6+ year working UGC creator with 1000+ Brand Deals — not typical student outcomes. Your specific results depend on your effort, niche, portfolio quality, outreach volume, market conditions, and consistency. Substantiation records available on request. No purchase is required to participate in the free 1-Week Brand Deal Challenge.

This is what changes about you.


Not what you get. What you can actually do by the end, and all of it is in your hands.

Right now

No portfolio, so every application asks for work you do not have.

You do not know what to charge, so you guess low.

A brand replies and you stare at it for two days.

You send one pitch, hear nothing, and stop.

By the end

A portfolio of finished pieces you made on purpose.

A rate you can say out loud without your voice going up at the end.

Real pitches sent, with the follow-up already dated.

A contract you know how to read before you sign it.

None of that depends on a brand saying yes. All of it is yours whether they do or not.

Results vary. Nothing here promises brand deals, clients, or income. What you get out depends on the work you put in.
