1. Understand what a “good” UGC job looks like

Before you start applying, it helps to know what you're looking for. A solid UGC brief usually includes:

• Clear deliverables*Clear deliverables* – e.g. “3x vertical product demo videos” or “2x unboxing + 1x testimonial”.
• Defined usage rights*Defined usage rights* – organic only, paid ads, whitelisting, duration, markets.
• Real budget range*Real budget range* – flat fee per video, bundle rate, or monthly retainer.
• Target audience + angle*Target audience + angle* – who the content is for and what the brand wants to push.

If a job post is vague (“we’ll figure it out later”) or only offers “free product in exchange for 5 videos”, you can usually skip it.

On the CreatorsKit UGC Job Board, we encourage brands to:

• Add clear deliverables*clear deliverables* to every job.
• Specify budget or budget range*budget or budget range*.
• Share timeline and expectations*timeline and expectations* up front.
