Hi, I'm Sophia, and I'm a sustainability professional and jujitsu athlete living in the Philippines. I joined UCC because in the future, I'd like to have my own company, and UGC is the best business model for me because I am ultimately making content for brands who will post it on their social media, and depending on their vision, whether it's to build brand awareness or boost sales, mastering these skills for me is invaluable and highly transferable for any aspiring business owner. When I found Osaka was launching UCC, I was very eager to sign up because she's different from most UGC creators I see online. I often see them using earning 5 to 10K in your first month as their main bait. In the UCC models and in our coaching calls, Asaka tells you to set goals, do your research, and really prompt you to ask yourself if UGC is the right business model for you. She's here to guide you and the community she is building amplifies her vision for thoughtful and intentional success. Since I'm new to the UGC space, my favorite part of the UCC program is how Asaka is able to break down intimidating concepts into bite-size information that are actionable. I also really appreciate the tips she shares, for example, there is a video just for optimizing your iPhone settings for filming. I'm not sure if other UGC creators have done this, but I like how the other modules are locked until you have done what the module covers. So essentially, for example, in module 2 of the program, Asaka teaches you how to land a gifted collaboration, so you will not be able to move forward to the next module until you have successfully done that. While I'm still pitching to brands and I have not gotten any gifted collaborations or pay deals, I was finally able to start and finish my own portfolio, which is a big, a very big win for me. I encourage anyone who has an interest in taking their UGC. Journey seriously because what Assaka is teaching can definitely change the trajectory of your life, and I think everyone should take that opportunity. There's also the benefit of having a community who all share the same goal and a job board for potential UGC paid opportunities. So please give the UCC program a try, and I hope to see you there. Bye.
