You Need a Clear System to Actually Build Your UGC Business

Maybe you've watched hundreds of TikToks about UGC but still don't know what to actually do next. You're learning pieces of the process — but no one has shown you how to put the entire business together.

✓ Wondering what should actually go in your portfolio
✓ Sending pitches and barely hearing back from brands
✓ Guessing what to charge every time an opportunity comes in
✓ Confused by usage rights, contracts, revisions, and negotiations
✓ Landing one-off deals but struggling to turn them into consistent work
✓ Saving endless UGC tips without having a real plan to follow

built for creators at every stage

You’re in the Right Place If...

Whether you're starting completely from scratch or you've already landed a few UGC deals, the Pro Accelerator shows you what to focus on next.

YOU’RE BRAND NEW TO UGC

✓ You have no idea where to start
✓ You want to learn how to create content brands actually want
✓ You need to build a professional UGC portfolio
✓ You don't know where to find paid opportunities
✓ You want to learn how to pitch brands and actually get started

YOU’RE ALREADY CREATING UGC

✓ You're getting some opportunities, but they feel inconsistent
✓ You're still guessing what to charge
✓ You want stronger pitches and better brand responses
✓ You need more confidence with contracts, usage rights, and negotiation
✓ You want to turn one-off projects into repeat clients and longer-term partnerships

START WHERE YOU ARE. BUILD FROM THERE.

Whether you’re brand new or already landing UGC deals, the Pro Accelerator gives you the full path in one place — from portfolio and pitching to pricing, contracts, repeat clients, and scaling.

Real CREATORS. REAL PROGRESS.

See What Happens When You Stop Guessing

“This course really helped me believe that I could do this as a career!”

Getting started with this course was so easy! I logged in and was able to begin the modules right away! I followed along through each one and was able to create my portfolio within the first week of starting! And started to reach out to brands within the 2nd week! I felt so confident when reaching out to brands and pitching myself after taking the course, it really helped me believe that I could do this as a career! I was so worried before because I wasn’t sure what to say to brands or what to do when it came to the contracts, I didn’t want to seem completely clueless when reaching out, but this course really gave me that confidence! I have been reaching out to brands daily since starting!

“I cannot recommend this course enough. It’s hands down one of the best investments I’ve made for myself”

I’ve taken a few other courses on UGC in the past, but none of them have been as helpful, clear, and actionable as Gianna’s UGC Starter Course!! She truly knows her stuff and breaks everything down in a way that actually makes sense — no fluff, no overwhelm, just step-by-step guidance that gives you the confidence to finally get started. What I loved most was how practical it was. From learning how to pitch to brands, set your rates, create a portfolio, and actually start getting paid, she covers it all in a way that feels empowering and approachable. You can tell she genuinely wants to see you win, and that makes a huge difference. If you’re even thinking about becoming a UGC creator or turning content creation into a side hustle (or career!), I cannot recommend this course enough. It’s hands down one of the best investments I’ve made for myself — and I’m so excited to keep applying everything I learned.

“I started to feel more confident!”

The first thing I want to say, that I started to feel more confident, and now I can email and text brands by myself, not thinking about my small experience or not really big portfolio! And also I finally made my Canva portfolio.

THE UGC PRO SYSTEM

Build a professional portfolio and creator presence that clearly shows brands what you can create.

2 — PRICE
 

Set your rates, packages, usage fees, and add-ons without guessing.

3 — PITCH
 

Find brands, send stronger pitches, follow up, and keep your outreach organized.

4 — DELIVER
 

Handle briefs, scripts, filming, editing, contracts, revisions, invoicing, and delivery professionally.

5 — REPEAT
 

Turn strong client experiences into repeat work, bundles, retainers, and longer-term partnerships.

Learn From a Creator Who’s Still Doing the Work 

Hi, I’m Gianna — a full-time UGC creator who has spent the last 6+ years working with brands, agencies, repeat clients, paid usage campaigns, and long-term partnerships.

I created the UGC Pro Accelerator to teach you more than how to make a good video.

I want you to understand the business behind UGC — how to build your portfolio, price your work, pitch brands, negotiate, protect yourself, deliver professionally, and turn one-off opportunities into repeat business.

I’m still actively creating UGC and working with brands today, so the strategies inside this course are based on what I’m actually using in my business now.
