how much I charge as a content creator/micro influencer. Sponsored posts, and UGC rates explained!! 

Hey girl, love this video! Just wanted to let you know that you should be charging wayyyyyy more for user generated content. These brands are using your videos you create for them on their socials and making ads out of them. You’re basically doing their marketing job for them. Instead of them paying for advertising, they reach out to people to make ads for them. They definitely have a larger budget for these UGC’s. I can see why you would think to charge less but these brands use these generated content for a long time. You should definitely be charging more sis!!

As a fellow microinfluencer/content creator, this was extremely helpful. Great tips Hayleigh :)

This is a very helpful video. I just got my first to reach outs from companies, and I really was struggling on how to respond. I freely admit, that this first one that sounds very interesting, and matches. My niche is a product for content relationship. But I like how you have developed from that way of engaging with companies to a more sophisticated way of being compensated for your time. Thank you so much for all of us neophytes out here trying to navigate this landscape that we didn’t anticipate happening in our journey. Thank you!

I appreciate you taking the time to share these valuable information with your audience, you are truly amazing

I love your video styles wow!! I’m 17 and I’m starting my RU-vid micro influencer/ugc journey again ✨

This is so helpful! Thanks so much for being so honest and taking us through this.

This was such a great video… so helpful! I’m just getting into UGC so I really appreciate it. Also, I LOVE what you do for the small businesses that approach you :) New subscriber here ✨

This just popped up in my feed as I subscribed to you recently 😊 I have to say I have never seen anyone share so much on this!! I’ve been doing RU-vid for 4 years and I guess no matter how much research I’ve done it’s so hard to find info on it.. I realized I haven’t raised my rates in way too long lol I just have always kinda guessed 🤷🏻‍♀️

Very charming personality. Thank you for sharing your journey. This video helps me to more believe in myself and keep doing what I’m passionate about

This video was so helpful, thank you 😊 someone who actually gave a break down on pricing.

Great tips!! Especially about the industry standards for nano/micro influencers in regards to deliverables. I use IG and YT as my main platforms, and between the two I have a total of 263 followers/subs. I calculated my rates by the 4% and 6% standard, and the result is actually a number that I feel was a bit too low, BUT I would definitely use the rule of thumb in the future!

Love the idea of bundling content, it's a good way to get a brand on your side giving them a 'deal' of some sort.

Thank you for explaining this, I am just getting to the point where I feel comfortable starting to ask for paid brand deals.

Thank you for sharing all this amazing information! Do you have any videos on dealing and understanding contracts???

UGC creators I have heard isn't dependent upon your followers

I do have a question. If you can, please take out time to answer, I would really appreciate. Assuming you need to create UGC for 3 skincare brands in a week and you could, would you do it? Knowing that they’ll be using the video around the same period. Because people would be wondering- I saw her face on two other products, how do we trust her? How do we trust the brand?

To each its own but I actually charge WAY more for user generated content as I don't want anyone having perpetual rights of my content but if they want it then they will have to pay a pretty dime.

Loved your video. Would you share the UGC you create to your personal tiktok/ig /reels?

Omg 6% for video?! I've pitched around that range for my TikToks but I feel TikTok is such a new area that it's the wild west when it comes to rates we deserve. But now I feel more confident standing by my price in the future. I feel 6% for my youtube following makes sense THANK YOU

How about braid bun as your next hairstyle? You can try it too!

Thank you 😊❤ I was just offered my first deal and I had no clue of where to start.

What exactly is a manager and what do they do when your an influencer

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and knowledge!

This was super! REAL INFO thank you! Can you list some of the agencies a micro-influencer could sign up with for more opportunities?

Hey is there a way to get help finding an agency?

so just to clarify, you do content creation full time right? like you don’t have a “day job” or anything?

That was helpful. Thanks ❤

Hi..will the 6% rule still hold for the sponsored RU-vid video 5min or more? Great videos btw 😊

Thanks for sharing this! It's very helpful 👍

This was super helpful thank you!

Thank you!! 💕 What is the best site for doing UGC content? I do it through one app but how do I find an agency or get more UGC brand deals?

Such a great video! I actually own a small fashion brand in NZ and I am wanting to have more UGC on my social platforms, so this was super helpful for me too ☺️ When you create UGC, does the brand usually gift you the product as well as payment? Or do you often just use the product for the content and then return it? X

Please I have a question!! If you are a small creator and you post content about a big brand and they reach out to you asking you for permission to use your content on their social platforms, can you charge them?

Hey! Thank you for all this info! As far as contracts and invoicing goes, when do you do these and what tools do you use?

Great video ❤

Hey queen! What agency do you use? I'm looking for a good one that will find paid work for me to save me time.

1:42 This is why you're my favorite youtuber lol

Hey girl, thanks for this video. How can I get the UGC jobs?

Super helpful

Thank you for this video. It was super helpful! When it comes to UGC content how did you find these agencies to work with? It’s definitely something I want to do more of!

That's 4% of 40 followers for me lol. I need to get some more followers lol.

Can you share some of the Agencies you work with?

Very useful your video thanks for all the tips just subscribed 🙏I’ve got a question how do you manage to send the content you created ?

How are you finding work ? Do you have a video on that?

Do you mind telling us where we can find these agencies that can help us book gigs like the one you have please?

I am really interested to work in beauty niche , can I work while living anywhere around the world ?

Thank you.

Hi! How much should you charge per image and usage for a brands website? No posting on my end. I had a brand reach out and would like to use my images on their site

Do you use a PO Box to receive products from brands that you’re going to generate content for?

Hi! Thanks for sharing! How do you find the agencies?

How do you reach out to brands for ugc content ?

UGC agencies ! I didn’t even know that was a thing 🤯 would you mind a few agencies you know of ?

Are you able to be selective with the brands you work with regarding ugc, especially when it’s provided by agencies? Love your aesthetic btw 🤍
